Levi had his first haircut on Saturday. It is so nice to not have to wait for two years to cut someone's hair like I did the girls! None of my kids are known for their long, flowing tresses as babies and it took forever for the girls to get any hair to speak of to distinguish them as little girls instead of little boys. However, with my little boy, I do not have to wait for his hair to get to be a decent length! He was getting a little scruffy around the ears so Matt took out his clippers and gave him a cut! It is a little deceiving that he even has hair since it is so incredibly blond, but we took off quite a bit. He does not look older or different as most boys do after their first haircut. In fact, he looks less like an old balding man and more like a baby now!
It is very difficult to cut a squirming baby's hair. Especially when he grabs everything in his reach....such as the cord to the clippers. I held him down while Matt manned the clippers. He giggled the entire time because the clippers tickled his head.
Post haircut picture. I didn't take a pre-haircut picture. But it would have looked pretty much the same. Except he had a shirt on.
The assistants. Who wouldn't want these two assisting with a haircut?

I have definitely thought before that one of the nice things about having a boy would be that you can give them a HAIRCUT! My girls were both born with plenty of hair, but then they lost everything except what was on top, which looked really weird. We ended up breaking down and shaving Lily's head because she looked so strange. With a boy, that might seem more normal :)
