My sons first haircut.

Well it was time. His hair has been getting longer and longer and it was time to stop pretending we were hippies. So today my 13month old got his very first hair cut and im sad about it. He no longer looks like my little baby but instead is turned into this little boy. Who knew that hair could do that? Cause I sure didnt.

I of course wanted to take him some place special that made a huge ordeal of out the fact that for the first time ever his hair would be cut. My husband on the other hand not so much. He wanted to just go to wal-mart and have it done. Well guess who won.. .....

The husband. Only because the special place was almost a 40mintue drive from where we live and I could hear it now about how far we were going just to get his hair cut. I envisioned him sitting in the special little car (even though he screams when I have tried to do this at wal-mart), smiling and laughing at me while getting his hair cut. In reality it went like this...

We got there and the girl who was to cut his hair said oh just sit him in the chair. At that moment I wanted to walk out because I thought there is no way this girl knows what she is doing if she thinks a one year old is just going to sit in that big chair all by him self and stay there. Right? I mean seriously who thinks that?

Instead I said he wont sit there and told his daddy to sit down and hold him while I tried to destract him and pray that my child doesn't come out with a huge gap out of the side of his head.

All i can say is thank god for cheerios and puffs because I held open the snack bag while he worried about stuffing his face instead of what was happening on his head. So it went off without a hitch except one ear is cut a tad shorter than the other side but hardly noticeable unless your the mom :)

I am very sad that he now looks like a big boy instead of the little baby with the hippie hair that I took in there. But you know what? He could care less...funny how that works
