Bye Bye Hippy Hair

Hello military hair? Well it certainly wasn't our intention to go this short, but it's the first of many. Ty's first haircut! Neither of us felt comfortable using scissors with him right now (visions of cutting his ear while wiggling), so clippers with a guard is just about the only other option. Hopefully next time we can make it a tad bit longer. The funny thing is he is soooo blonde now. Not bleached, but definitely a blondie. Overall he was wonderful, and barely wiggled. Go Ty! I think the parents need the practice more than the baby. I've got tons of pictures to slowly post as there is time. We just had a great weekend in Boise, and all the east coast pics. Stay tuned...

In case you were wondering how long Ty's hair was pre-cut, here are some bed head shots from last week.






Announcing the new Ty!




I know bribing this early in life doesn't work, but it sure kept him still!


Shocked at the new baby in the mirror.






Practicing on himself.




Who would have known clippers and lotion bottles could keep him this still?!


The result.

I hope you saved some of that ... I still have the girls in their babybooks. Looking forward to more pics. I think you did a great job on the hair, Bucky. He looks adorable. His eyes show up even more!!!

We saved all that we could! That entire pile is in a ziploc waiting for the baby book.
