First Haircut

Alec has been sporting a mullet...that's right, a red-neck, disgusting, 'business in the front, party in the back' mullet. With not much hair on top, I was biding my time in giving him his first haircut. But, when my cousin Danny stopped by on his visit from Texas, we decided to chop it off. Danny did the honors with a pair of scissors, then I used Paul's hair trimmer to even it all out. He actually didn't do too bad. Like any red-blooded one year old he hates holding still, so it took about 4 different sessions to even it all out, but the result was worth it!

Not much hair on top.
The 'before' picture-notice the mullet is primarily on the left side of his head.

Gotta love that first haircut!! Most kids I know end up with a few stray long hairs.

Actually on a baby it's a "bullet" (baby+Mullet=Bullet) All of Joseph's hair is on the sides of his head so I've taken to calling him General Washington.

So cute! Cat's got the opposite issue. Her hair grows straight down her forehead. I'm thinking it might be time for bangs.
