First Haircut

So... we finally did it. After being called a girl for like the 200th time last weekend - while wearing navy overalls - Wes and I finally broke down. The little man got his first haircut! I'm pretty sure I should have saved my $15 and done the job myself - probably would look a good bit better. But, we went for the experience. He didn't particularly care for the guy coming at him with a sharp object... but he was a big boy and he didn't get upset. His mom did though. Not really. But my eyes did tear up a bit. Not because of the haircut... but because I knew we were cutting his curls. And while it does still 'duck-tail' in the back a bit and flip on the sides... it's not the same. Sad!!!
I think maybe the haircut hit him in the car! Or maybe it was all the tiny hairs covering him! He wasn't EVEN thinking about the drape being put on him... so he was covered in hair. And there was A LOT of hair that was cut.
Here we are post cut. You judge for yourself... is it botched, or is it botched!!! There are random long hairs all over his head... that I'll have to try and clip sometime today. I keep telling myself it will grow! I went in to get him out of the crib this morning and it hit me like a ton of bricks! Oh my gosh... we actually cut his hair!!!

  1. Lauren, I think he still looks sweet...you know, it's not like a Big Mike bowl cut or anything!!! He doesn't look too big boy and I like that it still duck tails and flips out. I think it's perfect!!!
