Dreadful
Posted by Jenevieve
Last edit: Friday, 10:42 p.m.

As Miranda pointed out in our last post, Matt's hair has reached critical mass. We're dreading today (um, and maybe tomorrow). So far, we're about 4 hours into it, and we have one test dread done and his hair about 40% sectioned off.

4:35 p.m. Edited to add:

Sectioning complete!
Jeni says: Daddy, I want another pony.
Matt says: Churned butter once or twice, living in an Amish paradise.

6:54 p.m. Edited to add:
Dinner, then 4 dreads done. Time to put the man to sleep...

8:40 p.m. Edited to add:
Hosea was/is really having a hard time tonight, but 4 more are done.

10:49 p.m. edited to add: Okay, we have 14 done. They look awesome! Matt thinks it's bedtime...

Friday, 2:51 p.m. 27 dreads done, about 14 to go. We can almost see the finish line!

Friday, 5:14 p.m. 34 dreads done, about 14 to go. Funny how that happens.

Friday, 7:04 p.m. 37 dreads done, about 11 to go (also: dinner eaten, baby fed, 'Seabiscuit' finished, 1st episode of '24' watched). Time to put Hosea to sleep!

Friday, 10:42 p.m. Done!!!!! We'll post pics tomorrow, after Matt can touch his head without cringing and I don't feel like I've been standing up for two days straight whilst running my hands through a sawmill.
(Also, three more episodes of '24' watched. Pretty good, but not as thrilling as people have led us to believe. )
