First Haircut

I finally got Nick to agree to getting Wesley's haircut. I've been wanting to do it for months but Nick took some convincing. I was getting frustrated after a few weeks of trying to get cereal and vegetables out of his hair. The final straw for Nick was the other night when Wesley wouldn't go to sleep and was lying in his bed screaming, seemingly in pain. Nick went in to check on him and he had a big handful of hair that he was pulling really hard. There's a place here in Windsor that specializes in babies' first haircuts. They have cute little chairs for the kids to sit in, or a motorcycle for big boys and a horse-drawn carriage for bigger girls (Darcy wasn't going to get her haircut today but ended up getting a little trim while sitting in the carriage). Wesley is still young enough that he didn't sit in any of the chairs but ended up sitting on my lap. He was perfect through the whole thing and barely moved at all. She even used clippers at the end to even out the edges and he didn't flinch. Darcy had a bigger problem when we first walked in the door and she saw the little kitten they let run around the store. I guess most kids like that. Darcy screamed. The poor little kitten was terrified and so was Darcy. Lucky got to spend the rest of our visit in his cage. Not so lucky after all.

Anyway, here are the before and after pictures.
