Baby's First Haircut!!

This weekend, Xavier got his first haircut. It was a long time coming because he has my thick, long hair! It grows so fast! We...ok...I was very apprehensive. When I was little, I cut my younger sisters hair and her curls never came back! My mom still hasn't let me live that down. I was convinced if we cut it, his beautiful golden locks would never be the same.

Lately, I have been pinning it back! I know, I know...

He has enough hair for my clips!

Last week, however, I knew it was time. Susie told me that when he plays outside and gets hot, his bangs fall below his eyes and he has trouble seeing. I was mortified. On Sunday, Dustin basically forced me to let him get a trim. I agreed under the condition that we would do it at home. I only wanted his bangs cut and I was afraid that a hairdresser would lop it all off! So that evening, we gave him his evening bath and combed down his hair...

When completely combed, it reached his top lip...

It was outrageous.

 I couldn't bear to do it so Dustin took the plunge. He cut off about two inches solely from his bangs. I bawled like a baby.

After his hair dried, I quickly realized that there was nothing to cry about. His hair was just as luscious and curly as ever :) It looks the same except that it's not in his beautiful blue eyes :)

After :)

We survived!!
