Adam's First Haircut

Yes, I finally did it. I cut my precious baby's beautiful blond hair. (And discovered how hard it is to cut a squirming little baby's hair!) Adam did really well, though, and thankfully the whole thing only took about 5 minutes.

Here he is before the haircut. Look how long it all is!


Here he is right before I got out the scissors...


Here he is right after the haircut... it's much shorter! (And it actually is straight, it's just tousled already.)

And here's a back view... now his huge cowlick really shows up! But I think it's cute.

So I saved a lock for his baby book, we vacuumed, and now there's one less "first" in my baby's life. They just grow up too darn fast!!!

I cut Reuben's hair ONCE in may, and haven't cut it since because he looked so old! I want to hold on to him (as a baby) for just a little longer.

I find that funny because Steve thought Adam looked younger with his hair cut, since his hair was short as a baby... either way, he's not very cuddly anymore, so I know he's growing up and I miss holding my little baby bundle!!!

Way to be brave...and to save the cute lock of hair. :) My mom always saved some of mine and I think it's great to see how the color changes over the years.

That second picture---THAT is the one where he looks like Stephen. He is a stunning baby. Great job on the haircut. :)
