emo teenagers

For those who may have been concerned, don’t worry. Kevin’s not really an emo rockstar teenager nor does he wear his hair like that on a regular basis. I have proof!

See?

Wait. Oops. That photo may be a little bit old.

How about this one?

No? He sure was a cutie though! Notice how straight and manageable his hair was here.

Did you know I was robbed of experiencing my first born child’s first professional haircut? If you didn’t know that, it may explain these next few photos.

Kevin gets his hair cut short, for the first time in years.

The stylist thought she'd leave the bangs longer. Jack said, Um, No!

Kevin left it completely up to Jack to decide how to cut it, so Jack micromanaged the poor stylist until it was just right.

Hes still a cutie! Now with manageable hair again!

He's still a cutie and looks so grown up now!

I wasn’t there during this milestone event when a teenage boy decides he wants to look a bit more clean, more refined. Not quite so rough around the edges. At least I have photos so I wasn’t completely robbed this time.

How about some photos instead?

Did you know Kevin was Emo now?

You didn’t? Looks pretty emo to me.

He’s a rock star now too.

So maybe it was just for a play at school, but I think he pulls off the emo rock star thing quite well.

We celebrated a birthday in March. Guess who didn’t like his present at all?

He didn’t like this one much either. And can you believe someone thought to give one of these children yet another nerf dart gun? I mean. Really?!? Did a certain you-know-who, whom shall rename nameless (hint: rhymes with “cleric” even though he’s far FAR from holy) think we really needed ONE more nerf dart gun? (Another hint: he’s standing behind Cody in the above picture). Please ignore the spaghetti dinner mess in the background. I promise it was cleaned up as soon as I put down the camera.

There was a pinata. Not just any pinata. A Darth Vader pinata. And judging from the little dude in the background, possibly an airplane race occurred?
