First Haircut

Today was a big day for Karsten - it's his five month birthday AND his first haircut. There has been quite the debate for some time now about getting his haircut. The rational side of me knows that he needed to have his hair cut so it wouldn't be in his eyes, but the mom side of me said 'he's just a baby, he doesn't need a haircut and lose that baby look'.

Finally his hair was in his face so much I couldn't argue anymore. Luckily my former hair stylist Stephanie had an opening and was able to cut his hair. As a supermom of four I knew she would do a great job and I trusted her completely!

Stephanie cutting his hair. Scott wore a cape and held Karsten.

Taking a break from the haircut - he started to get a little crabby.

Holding still is hard work - plus he was getting sleepy.

Big smiles for Stephanie!

The final product. Just a trim - he still looks like a baby, not a big boy.
