A New 'Do in Time For Two!

Boy, it's been awhile. So much I should share... but for now, Nathan had his first "real" haircut today. Okay, okay. Technically it wasn't his FIRST real haircut - that one happened almost a year ago. He wasn't too fond of it though, so I thought rather than hold him down kicking and screaming, I would let the haircut go as far as he would let it go (which unfortunately wasn't very far...) in order to not scar him for life from any future haircuts.

But, he is turning two in only 5 days. To say that his hair was out of control was an understatement. I decided that, even if I had to hold that boy down, no matter how long it took, he WAS going to have a decent haircut today. It was time to make him look like a little boy again, and to get rid of that curly-and-cute yet ridiculously crazy mess of hair on his head.



So, here was my last look at those curls, on our way to the "chopping block".....


And, after about 15 minutes of the best behaved almost-two-year-old who sat on my lap reading a book and giggled every time the clippers touched his scalp, it's a brand new boy!!



In my opinion, an immense improvement! (I had almost forgotten that he had ears!) A makeover fit for a two-year-old. He can now have his birthday party next weekend in style.
