Oh, Where Is My Hairbrush?

Posted at 9:48 am on Thursday, July 3, 2008

AJ had his first official hair cut yesterday. We’ve done an okay job keeping his bangs trim, but it was time for an all over cut and shape. I was extremely nervous about taking him, and his screaming and crying the whole way there didnt help any (not because he was going to get a hair cut, its just what he does on the way home from school most days, I try not to take it personally).
But, he did amazingly well. The whole new environment thing can go either way; but, thankfully, we got there early and he had time to play and get comfortable. By the time they called his name, he was ready to take his seat in the airplane and watch some Dora (thank God for Dora!). His stylist let him “help” her with his own comb and she went to town. A few snips in and I was in awe “You are amazing…” I told her.
Near the end, when she was trimming around his ears, he got a little fussy. But I broke out the snacks and kept him occupied while she cleaned him up. Success!

We’ve never met, but I’ve been following your blog. I really enjoy hearing more about AJ. He is so adorable! My husband and I will be adopting our own litle Korean boy in a year or two, and it’s so hard to wait, especially after seeing pictures of AJ. I’m learning a lot about parenting through your blog and hopefully I’ll remember all that advice once our boy arrives! Thanks for sharing!
