First Haircut

























Yesterday, we treated Leif to his first haircut...not much of a treat for him, but we were delighted by the experience.  We went to Kids Kuts in Santa Monica - Leif was seated in a large blue Jeep to distract him while his stylist cut away the wispy bits around his ears, neck, and eyes.  They gave us a lock of hair, a certificate, and photos of the grand event - and they were so nice.

Not much of a difference in the before and after shots, but the stylist did a far superior job than the buzz cut Kris was contemplating!

New Headshots and Leif's First Paid Photo Shoot

Here are Leif's new headshots - hope you enjoy them.  

We are timidly entering Leif into the entertainment industry as a model and child actor.  He is signed by Ford Models for print work and Maverick Artists for commercial/theatrical.  We figure it's a good way for Leif to earn money for college...especially given the shocking and disgusting news that Governor Schwarzenegger has proposed to dismantle the CalGrants program, which helped Gretchen afford her college degree.

Thus Far, Leif has done a modeling job for DisneyStore.com (photos below) and had auditions for Baby Gap and Huggies.  We have yet to be followed by the paparazzi.
