Happy 1st Haircut, Eli!

Mommy decided this week that instead of mommy getting a hair cut, Eli would! He was getting a little shaggy around the ears and neck so it was time! For his first cut, I wanted to go to one of those fun kid cut places. They have a fun "1st haircut" package where they do a before and after picture and make a certificate with the pictures and a lock of hair. He also got to choose which seat to sit in so we chose the Hummer. We went this morning (Wednesday morning) as soon as they opened, so we had the whole place to ourselves!! Great fun!!

For the before picture, they purposefully mess up his hair which is cute:


He loved all the buttons and the steering wheel in the Hummer:


Cape is on....hair is being watered down:


The first clip!!:



He did an awesome job & didn't really flinch at all! He seemed to enjoy himself. I'm sure it helped that Elmo was on the t.v. directly in front of him:



The finished result:


What a big boy!!:






Proof of his accomplishment:

You look handsome Eli! Looks like you were such a good boy too! I am afraid to take Brayden because I don't think he would sit still at all.

I love it! I always wanted to try one of those fun places...but I figured the girls wouldn't want to go back to our usual Custom Cuts. Oh, well!

Very handsome! Nice job sitting still! I'm guessing Elmo on the tv helped with that.

that's really cool. I've never seen one of those places but what a great idea.
