"First" Haircut

We finally did it! I don't know when Brode's hair took off, but all of a sudden it was very long! We debated if we could go any longer, put it off for a while, but finally just went for it and boy are we glad we did. Brode looks great!

A before, you can see the mini-mullet hanging off the back.


He did great! He didn't scream, cry, wiggle, or anything. His left ear was a bit ticklish (or sensitive by the scar) that his fingers went up for but didn't last long.


Ringing the bell on the Firetruck!


Our handsome little boy with a new fresh trim! He looks so good and so much older!


I hesitate to say first because he did have his hair completely shaved off when he was 10 months old for surgery, but this is the first time he sat in the chair and had the clippers. We have the lock of hair (ok we have the entire bag of every last strand they shaved off and saved for us) from surgery, but we got all the pictures and experience this time so it was still exciting!

A few other new things. Brode has learned more words! He is also learning some new songs and putting phrases together. While I was away for the weekend he learned the complete definition and usage of the word please. He begs at the counter, at the top of the stairs, and at his toys "pwease, pwease" and of course sucks Gramps in every time, but I'm going to stand strong! He also learned to sing and do the "Wheels On The Bus" song and some more of "Old McDonald". He has really been catching on and copying more and more each day... it is so entertaining!
