Yep, we got his hair cut. Even though we LOVED his crazy, outta control 'do, it had to be cut.
Here's the before...
The during...
(Vicki, Matt's cousin's wife, cut his little baby hair. I took Port for a hair cut a couple of weeks ago to a Super Cuts type of place, and almost got Coop's hair cut then. The girl said she had plenty of time, and she could just clean it up for me, nothing drastic-I guess she could sense my attachment to the craziness of his 'do-, and I even had my camera with me. Then, at the last second I thought "I don't even know this girl, and she's about to cut my baby's hair? No way!! So we called Vicki a couple of weeks later)
He didn't like it. He cried through most of it. We gave him some juice and a cookie, but he cried and kept moving his head to look up at Vicki. Poor Vicki! He's gotta be her toughest client!
The after...
Doesn't he look like a big boy? We love the new 'do, but I really miss the old hair. He looks so much older and not like a baby anymore. I miss the crazy baby hair. I miss seeing his crazy, fluffy 'do every morning. I miss fluffin' up his curls after he gets out of the bath every morning. We miss sayin' "look at dat hai-eh" to him every time it's crazy...
But it had to be done. I guess we have to let him grow up, right?
We'll start with a hair cut....baby steps.

And what is this new family photo? I love it! How cute!
Wow! He had enough hair for a cut!I'm jealous! His cut looks great!
Cute little guy! What a big step....it's funny how us mama's get attached to something like baby hair!! I know the feeling...
I'm really attached to hair too. but then it always looks so cute after wards- I have to remind myself of that every time we do hair cuts. He is so so cute with his new do!!
I totally understand. I always hate the first haircut because they do look like a big kid after that. He looks so stinkin' cute though!
