Owen's First Haircut!

Mama finally broke down and admitted that Owen had a comb-over. Like most mommies of little boys, I was dreading his first haircut because I know how grown up they suddenly look when their locks are properly trimmed. Owen's hair has always been a source of humor and affection for me. When he was born, we thought it was curly, only to discover it was just wet and dirty. :) Then, I marveled at how thick it was compared to Sawyer's...until he lost almost all of it. The only hair he didn't lose was at the crown of his head so he looked like he had a very bad receding hairline for a long time. When his hair grew back in...that patch grew with it and was LONG! I'd say it was about 4 inches long in some spots. The best was when the wind would blow that patch of hair up. He looked like he had a very bad hairpiece. This brings us to his haircut. We took him to CoolCuts. He sat in a silver convertible car (which Sawyer wanted to spin Owen around in) and was much more composed than his mommy. Every once in a while he would shoot his stylist a "Can I help you?" kind of look but the Cheerios I held in my hand quickly distracted him. Here are some videos and a slide show of the big event!
