Christian's First Hair Cut

So today was a special day. After spending countless nights struggling to dry Christian's unbelievably thick hair, spending countless mornings attempting to untangle his sticky food filled hair, and spending countless days combing his bangs out of his eyes, we finally decided that Christian was in desperate need of a haircut. Contrary to popular belief, we were not trying to grow Christian's hair out so he could look like one of the Beatles. He was just born with sooooo much hair and after our last little home haircut fiasco where blood was drawn(so sad), we were a little scared to do it ourselves. But it had to be done(we didn't want him to end up looking like cousin "It" from the Adams Family, so we took him to this really great place called "Cool Cuts" They have all sorts of neat stuff to keep the kids entertained while getting their hair cut. Christian really like the car chairs that they had. He did not however appreciate having water sprayed on his head or the sounds of the clippers as he was edged up. He did cry a little, but the stylist was fast and it was over before you could say "Christian Alexander the Great". He looks so cut with his new hair cute, doesn't he?!

The before shot, Christian in desperate need of a haircut!
What a cool idea to keep kids entertained
Christian ready and waiting
Christian's not really diggin his first hair cut. Oh, what a sad face!
Take a little off the sides please
Getting edged up like daddy
Christian won't have to view the world through a layer of bangs anymore!
Finally cooperating
Don't I look handsome?!
The after shot, wow! what a difference! I'm ready for my close up now
