First Haircut

It's been almost 16 months since Joshua was born, and this is the first time we've cut his hair. He wasn't born with much, and it was all really fine and blond, so it's not like he needed it. Around 10 months old or so, though, his hair started really growing--and it just got thicker and longer. Finally, we got some hair trimming scissors (courtesy of my mom--thanks, Grandma!) and decided to go for it. He was a pretty good sport for the whole ordeal. We tried to videotape it but quickly realized that we needed Daddy to focus on distracting Joshua so he wouldn't keep trying to turn around and see what Mommy was doing behind him. A few before pictures:
So you see, it wasn't incredibly long, but it did need a trim. Here is an after picture (sorry, we couldn't get him to look up...he was too distracted by Daddy's old cell phone):Once we took the cell phone out of his hand to get him ready for a bath, though, he lost it. This picture was just too funny not to post. Don't you just feel so badly for him? =P
His bath put him in a much better mood, so we got a couple of better pictures then:What a handsome boy he is! Mommy loves you, my dear sweet Joshua Logan!

I love the picture of him upset after losing the phone - he looks so pathetic (and still so adorable!) Nice job on the haircut mom!
