As much as I would love to wait and see if Carson’s hair curls like Mallory’s, I wasn’t loving seeing his scraggly hair over his ears and the collars of his shirts. It made it look as though he’d just gotten out of bed, which I guess when you are 8mos old, isn’t really that much of a stretch, since you are taking 2-ish naps a day.
Anyway.
So we got Carson a haircut. Check out the “Chip off the old block” post for a decent “before” picture.
He was good and sat on Rick’s lap the whole time. It’s sort of hard to make an 8-mo old look down and this way and that way so that the barber can get the right angles but when you’re 8-mos old, accuracy isn’t super important for the haircut, I suppose.
*PS – if you are considering hiring me to take pictures of you or your loved ones, please don’t judge me on these pictures. I was just being a mom and didn’t have time to make sure the blinds were lowered, etc before we started Carson’s haircut.
