First Haircut!

Ashley got her first haircut a few weeks ago! I've cut a tiny piece from the top when she was a about 1, but this was her first formal cut. We had talked about it all week and every morning she would wake up and say "I'm getting a haircut today!?" "No sweetie, we have to wait a few more days" Well the day finally came and she was so excited until we walked in the door and she wanted to leave. It was a little overwhelming for her, she didn't want to sit in the car or pick out a video so she decided she was ok with getting her hair cut if she was on my lap. We both got covered up and the lady trimmed about an inch off. It was funny though because her first cut was blonde and when she cut underneath it was brown, so I think she might have darker hair when she's older we'll have to see. So of course she warmed up to the lady after awhile and was talking to her. At the end she got to pick out her "clipies" and then asked to sit in the car to play. Once she was in she didn't want to get out, so maybe next time she'll be ok and not have to sit on mommy's lap. What a fun place to get haircuts though and they even give out suckers when you leave! She was very proud of her first haircut and couldn't wait to come home to show Papa how they cut it and styled it (this was all animated with hand gestures and everything, so cute!)

Neat, a special place just for little ones to get their "do's" done. I am certain next time you will jump in the car, ask them to put in a video, and tell them just how you would like your hair done. You have the most beautiful curls and grammy says don't let them ever cut off more than a "smidgen" :)
