Dawson's First Haircut




The other day Dawson woke up with a major bedhead doo...his hair was practically standing on end on top and in the back. It was then I realized his hair is getting kinda long, especially in back where it was looking a little bit too much like a mullet! So I went online and found this super cute kid's haircut place called Cookie Cutters. The moment we walked in the door Dawson LOVED this place. There was a tv playing kid's shows, a big slide and play area, I mean come on, who wouldn't want to get their haircut there! So when it was his turn we got to pick out a movie of his choice (we chose Elmo, his fav) and we got to pick what he sat in (a firetruck) and they gave him a sucker too! It was perfect cause he is such a mover that he needed all those distractions...which worked cause he did great! He just sat there and played with the truck, ate his sucker, watched Elmo, and watched Mommy blow bubbles. Since it was his first haircut they took his picture and printed it out on a certificate with his name and the date AND a little bag with a lock of his baby hair! We left with a happy mom loving his shorter hair and a happy little boy cause he got a balloon!

I've been meaning to reply... we'll be in Utah the 16-28, will you be there any of those days?

Same story for Andrew, no walking - he doesn't even stand independently, just collapses down to his knees and crawls away whenever we try to practice walking. Boys, they're just slower than girls. haha.

What a cute place! Dawson looks like a champ! I just took Ray to get her first professional haircut, yes I have retired my scissors since she's not bald anymore. We cut off her mullet, looks much better! :)
