First Haircut!

This drives me bonkers. Corbin's hair is growing very quickly and getting long, and it will NOT stay out of her face unless I force it with clips and rubber bands, which always mysteriously disappear as soon as my back is turned!

I've been toying with the idea of getting Corbin's bangs trimmed or just doing it myself, and finally today I decided I'd had enough! Her hair is always in her face and gets in the way she she's eating or doing anything else, so it had to go!

To the salon we went!

Here's my baby getting all happy and excited in the hair cutting chair. Honestly, I didn't expect her to be so cheerful!


She was also REALLY excited about the ginormous mirror, and she was all giggles! She's such a vain baby! (She tried to climb into the mirror in our bathroom today. She's really interested in that adorable baby she sees in there!)

Look at those crazy bangs! Time to snip them off!


So I told the lady I didn't want her bangs to be blunt straight across. I just don't think it's cute. I wanted the side-sweeping thing, and that's what we went for.

There was a lot of action involved, as is proven in these shots, because if there's one thing Corbin is not good at, it's holding still!


Every time she'd get her bangs in place and ready to start snipping, Corbin would toss her head to the side. Ryan was trying to hold her. I don't know how we managed, lol.


Bangs, yay!


And yeah, they look kinda wonky in the picture, but they actually look really nice. I'm very pleased. It was especially nice because after all of that, the lady didn't charge us a thing! She just gave me her card and said for me to remember her when I needed hair services! She was super sweet! And she carried Corbin away and gave her candy. And of course my baby loves her some candy. :)

Mmmm, candy!


Look at that happy baby! I'd say she's pleased to be able to see clearly for the first time in months without an annoying ponytail! :)


The first of many haircuts, I'm sure! I saved the snippings to put in her baby book. Maybe that makes me weird, but she's my baby and I want to remember all of these ridiculous little milestones someday. :)
