Haircut

I really should start my post-catching up on stuff from the beginning of the summer. But this weekend we took Owen to get his first haircut, and I can't help but post those pictures first...they are that cute! I know, I know...he's only 8 1/2 months old, but we really DID need to get his hair cut. It was crazy out of control. Justin and I both have really, really thick hair, and Owen definitely got those genes! Although it wasn't actually that his hair was that thick, it was just insanely long.

We took him to a place called Cookie Cutters. It was really cute, and they did a great job. He sat in a little race car and watched a Baby Einstein movie. He barely moved the entire time, even when they used the little razor-trimmer thing on him!

Getting ready for the big cut. (Look at that ridiculous hair covering his ears. Mom and Dad should be ashamed!)

Holding still

Lady, you better be careful with that thing!

This child looks miserable in this photo. He clearly is pissed that him mom and dad forced him to get a haircut.

No good aunt can let "Anonymous" be the only commentator here! I think Owen looks adorable with his new hairdo. While I thought the shaggydo was also cute, I imagine it's tough to think about how to start walking if you can't hear or see and don't know how to brush the hair away yet! ...I'm not at all surprised that he was so good at sitting still!!
