Carter's First Haircut




Carter's hair is rather hard to describe. First of all it's blond which is a feat of genetics considering mama and dada's hair is brown through and through. Secondly his hair is very thin, fine, flowy, and wispy. His hair is also straight as straight can be. All of these factors worked together to push us into getting his first haircut. As you can see below the ductail was in full effect!

My sister suggested a place that was more than ample to the task. There was a large train table in the waiting room, video games, and televisions playing Bob the Builder all over the place. He was quite content to play around the trains until it was "time".

When they called Carter's name the kid friendliness deepened. Carter chose a Thomas the Train video to watch as he was placed in the yellow Taxi for his haircut.

The haircut itself had it's ups and downs as he went from both content with his fingers in his mouth to screaming at everyone, "GET ME OUT OF THIS TAXI!"


In the end the stylist did a great job and Carter has made yet another leap towards being a little boy and moving away from being a toddler.

  1. Boy do I wish I could just scoop him up and give him hugs and kisses!! These are wonderful; that photo at the "barbers" (boys don't go to stylists :-D) was heartbreaking but so cute. Keep 'em coming...
