First Haircut

Matty got his first haircut on Halloween. My sweet little boy is turning into quite the terror - it is difficult to do just about anything with him these days, so it was not a surprise that he did not want to sit in the chair. Fortunately, the kids salon is familiar with fiesty little people, so we were able to entertain him... eventually... with a caddy of cars.

I knew I would be emotional as I watched his cute little curls fall to the floor. The first haircut seemed more profound for Matty than Taylor. I suppose this is because Taylor's first haircut was just a trim, whereas Matty's required a lot of cutting and shaving. I loved Matty's long curls, but the mullet was getting out of control. He looks so grown up to me now. He's ready for his promotion to big brother!

Still happy

Getting settled in his new "ride"

P*ssed!

Calming down (thanks to the paci)

Loving the cars... and various other toys on his "chair"

Looking so grown up already!

Happy again!

Post-haircut celebration with a lollipop (Matty's first)! Since this haircut, the lollipops are a necessity for doctor appointments and other activities that require him to chill out!
