This post will be short because I can barely see to type through the tears. Jason and I decided that we were going to cut Gibson's hair short. If you look at the pics from his birthday party, he was so hot and we were sure that a shorter haircut would help keep him cool. His hair is so thick (like his momma's) that it keeps his little head really warm. So, instead of torturing the poor barber, we decided we'd cut it at home. Below are the results. We didn't exactly want it so short. But after the first cut, there was no turning back. At least it'll grow back fast! :-)
Here's a before shot!
This is the first cut! At this point, Jason and I were almost sick. We didn't want it this short at all but it was too late. :-(
Is this not a look of desperation? Just looking at this makes me nauseous!
Almost finished! Just the back to go and he looks so upset! Did I mention how much he hated getting his hair cut before this traumatic event? He won't set foot near a barber shop now!
Back to his old self! All smiles and loving on Daddy!
So, I'm hoping I can move past the mourning of his hair loss. I know it will grow back but it doesn't take back the fact that his parents scalped him. How horrible is that!

awwww
it is very obvious that you guys love that child
not all parents would be so heart broken if they cut their childs hair
you must share a very special bond with him
and don't worry it will grow back....faster then you expect
love you guys
see you soon
I think the end result is precious! It shows off his beautiful features. I would be the same way though! It is not fun watching them be upset! He is so cute!
That first haircut that parents give is usually not the look you were going for. Believe me I have cut my boys hair enough that I have gotten a little better at it. Avery still screams his head off but Braden just sits there. I feel your pain on saving the barber a headache!!! You will get better at cutting if that is the path you choose! Sometimes I just want to take the boys to the barber just to give them a bad day instead of me. LOL
Talk to you later.
