My First Haircut!











We had a pretty monumental day today...Lucas got his first Haircut!!!

We had been thinking about doing it for awhile because his hair kept itching his ears and getting in his eyes. However, yesterday in Dahlonega was the final straw. We had TWO different people in one hour call him a GIRL!!!! It is crazy! He was even wearing dark blue!

We took him to a kid's haircut place here in Cumming called "Pigtails and Crewcuts." They did such a great job. Lucas was their youngest client yet at 9 months old!

When we arrived, Lucas had a blast playing with their train set. He wasn't too interested in pushing the trains the normal way, but rather throwing them all on the ground!


As he was getting his haircut, he was strapped into a plane chair. He wasn't too sure about it at first, but the stylist kept giving him treats so he was ok until she put the smock around him. It was really getting on his nerves because he couldn't figure out how to use his hands! He also wasn't sure why this stranger kept squirting him with water to get his haircut, oh if looks could kill! While he was getting his haircut, I collected some of his hair for the keepsake they give you and for my scrapbook.


We tried really hard to get him to sit still with all sorts of objects, but it wasn't until I broke down and gave him his first lollipop that he never moved again!!! He thought he had died and gone to heaven. Really, he was afraid to move with the fear that I would take it out of his mouth. By the end of the haircut, my hand was covered in drool, but his hair was finished.

As far as first haircuts go, she did a great job. However, it will never be perfect in a Mommy's eye. It looked great, but I thought it just changed the way he looked too much. After a few days it did grow on me though. He is back to the little baby look in my eyes.

After the haircut, we treated Lucas to some pizza. Pizza has definitely become Lucas' favorite thing to eat!
