Parker's First Haircut

It was finally time to bite the bullet and get Parker's haircut.

His hair was looking straggly and twice in one week he was mistaken for a little girl.

I've been dreading this day - knowing that a new short hair-do would morph my youngest from a baby to a big-boy in just a few scissor snips.

Here he is the day before in all his long-haired baby goodness:

And twenty dollars and one barber shop visit later my baby is all growed-up:

#makeitstop!!!

I choked up more than once watching his long locks fall to the floor. It's hard watching my baby grow. Can't I just keep him little forever please? 

There are no good photos of the actual event since I went alone and actually ended up holding him in the chair. I tried taking an after photo but he was squirmy and eager to flee the scene so nothing turned out. 

Here is a comparison shot of the boys with their first haircuts.

They definitely look like brothers but they look different too.
