My Son is Nick Arrojo

For those of you who don't know, Nick Arrojo is the stylist on TLC's What Not to Wear. This morning, I was laying in bed like a slug (as I usually do on Sunday mornings), when Brandon crawls onto the bed armed with a comb or two and the announcement: "I'm going to comb your hair to make you/it beautiful."

He actually did a good job...no hair pulling or anything! It also brought back fond memories of when I would lay on my mom's bed and play with her hair.

Then, I took a bubble bath this morning, and Brandon kept smooshing bubbles on his hair and asking me to smell his hair. He also put mousse in his hair and asked me to smell that, too.
Being a stylist may not be my first occupational choice for my son, but hey, Nick charges $500 a haircut. As long as he doesn't compromise his manhood, I'm okay with it.
Although later today he took my temperature, gave me a shot, took my blood pressure, and listened to my heart with Alexis' doctor set. He has said on more than one occasion that he would like to be a doctor. Hmm, maybe that's my preferred career choice for him, after all.

i don't know. a doctor has a whole heck of alot more schooling and debt than a hairstylist! plus, think of all the on-call stuff and his poor wife won't see him for years while in school, residency, etc. and then they will be in debt for several years after that! plus, who knows where the medical community is headed, if you know what i mean!

i say go with stylin'! then you will always look beautiful and smell good!

Years from now you'll have to let Brandon know that his career was decided through a debate on your blog over two options.

Anders newest thing is he wants to be a builder that cleans off buildings up high. A window washer?

Hmm... Nice highlights, free medical advice. That's a toss up.

A bubble bath sounds heavenly at the moment! I vote for doctor, unless he could be a hairdreser to the stars- they make big bucks!

that's a tough one. I'd pay $500 any day for Nick to cut my hair. I love that show!
