There's a First Time for Everything...

...and this weekend was Caroline's FIRST haircut. I can't believe she almost made it to her 2nd birthday without a haircut. But the scraggly (sp??), mullet-style just wasn't working for her anymore :-) So Matt, Caroline and I headed over to Snip-Its yesterday for the big cut.
Here is a before pic:
At first, Caroline was not happy and I thought we were in for a very difficult first haircut...
...but then she quickly realized there was a sucker in her hand and a show on the t.v. in front of her. Those frowns quickly turned into BIG smiles...whew!




I knew Caroline wouldn't like having her hair blow-dried but I couldn't let her walk outside in the frigid temps with wet hair. So she suffered through it like a champ.
And here is an after shot (it's not great b/c Caroline wanted OUT of that chair):
We think Caroline's hair looks so cute. All in all, a great first haircut experience!!

Oh my gosh, Laura, it looks great! Makes me want to take Saylor and get rid of her mullet too. :) Caroline is a haircut champ!

Hey Laura, I saw your blog linked on Sarah's. Anyway, I was laughing at this one because my 4 year old has not had a hair cut yet. I know she needs one soon but I am scared the curls will disappear.
