Hair Cut

John's hair is really starting to come in. Sadly, he's lost his super-soft-bran-new-baby hair and has replace it with just-slightly-coarser-curly-when-it's-long hair. I wanted to even his hair out a bit. He had some crazy bawl spots and was developing a weird mohawk thing. I figured by evening him out before his hair got to crazy it would be less shocking.

Steven held John in his lap, keeping his curious arms down. Then, I braced his head and took the good ol' clippers to it! We were prepared for screaming and thrashing, but were pleasantly surprised by a calm baby. This kid does not fit the mold... he sleeps a lot and doesn't mind bathes!

These are the pre-hair cut shots.





And the post-hair cut shots... not much of a difference, but I like it that way.





And here's the remaining hair. Now I threw it away (in the compost) because I didn't think it was sanitary to keep it. My mother & an aunt have since informed me otherwise. Just for the record, I will probably save the next clipping... which may be in a couple of month, because this kid can grow hair for sure!
