Eli's first and last haircut

...kidding... sort of :)

We finally went and had Eli's hair cut by our dear friend Lindey . She did a fantastic job and I am SO glad that we went to her because she's a mom of a two year old too so she understands the extreme emotional turmoil that I was going through! haha...

I think she did a great job but I miss his long hair so much! ...ugh... but without further ado...





He sobbed the entire time, I held strong. I lost it when I got in the car and looked at him. Obviously in the grand scheme of things this isn't that big of a deal, but ugh! He's my baby!

Thank you Lindey! You were so sweet to endure this with us!

Where is Lindey? I need to get Makayla's hair cut again, but I WILL NOT go back to the same place I went the first time! They did an awful job!

We gave Makayla a lollipop (or 7) that kept her occupied and happy during her haircut, you might try that next time.

Camden didn't cry the first time he had his haircut but did cry the next four or five times that followed. It was just recently that he'll sit without tears. A sucker always helps but I can't stand him putting a "hairy" sucker in his mouth...even if it is his own hair. lol

I love his new do! :)

Haircuts are awful for Brayden too! He cries the entire time. It's not a sobbing screaming cry, it's just soft and sad. That's what makes me so sad. The only time he didn't cry was at his first haircut. Your boys are darling Amanda! I love seeing pics of them together. Just SO sweet.
