Behold...

The Bullet
{baby mullet}

For the past few months family members and friends have subtly {and not so subtly} asked when we were going to cut Sol's hair. I didn't want to. If it wasn't for the fact the only hair growing was basically a couple strands of hair in the back {thus resulting in more of a rat-tail look}, I would have let this kid's beautiful locks grow. Truth be told, it needed to be trimmed. I delayed {drug my feet, bordered on tears} because I don't want to admit my baby boy is growing up, and I wasn't ready to let go of the hair.

But away it went.

Chop.


Taking it like a champ.
{Check out the crestfallen, no make-up, face .}

The end result.
You survived your first haircut buddy.

{Gah, I love this kid.}

what a great face! I'm impressed you cut his hair - do you cut all the boys' hair? I wouldn't dare trust myself to Tristan's hair; I'd be so afraid of messing it up.

Hilarious.

I'm digging my heels in on a couple of things as well. Like my fully potty trained son gets his BINKY when he gets in his CRIB to go to sleep.

Hmmm, haircut doesn't seem so bad now, does it?

My son's hair looks just like your before, and I have family members asking me when I'm going to get it cut too. I just can't bring myself to do it yet. A little shaggy is okay still, right?

Okay, this will be a marathon comment, since I checked in today and found several new posts!!

Ah, that first haircut. I think I've cried every. SINGLE. time with my kids's first cut. You did a great job!

The Baby is just so....so....yummy! Like Buttah! Or the tastiest cake. She really is wonderful!

Your Christmas looked so fun and peaceful...

And you look fantastic without make up!

Every single time I think I have the cutest boys on the planet, yours always make me reconsider. :)

You know I love that kid. With or without a bullet. Great job on his hair--I cut all my boys' too!
