First Haircut by Mommy

On Friday night, Blake got his first haircut by me. I started cutting Brent's hair shortly after we got married in order to save us a little extra money and I have gotten pretty good at it. So a couple months ago I trimmed up the back of Blake's hair which went well but we couldn't figure out how to keep him still. Well, Christmas time brought us the movie "Elmo in Grouchland" and now Blake will sit still for the entire movie :) Perfect opportunity! I think the haircut was a huge success and I am sure there will be many more. Brent gives me a hard time since I am cautious when cutting but I will always stand by my motto "you can always take a little more off but you can never put any back on" :)
