Abram's 1st Haircut

Anyone who got to see Abram during the first year of his life can attest to him having quite the "mop" on his head! The plan was to give him his first haircut in January during David's R&R, but it never happened. I toyed with doing it while David was gone but it also never happened. So once David was home and Abram already 14 months, a first haircut was definitely in order! Don't get me wrong, I loved his hair. Although most days he reminded me of a teenage boy with his hair everywhere. While it was charming, it was just getting too long. I could even put it into a ponytail!

It took us a bit to get used to. I kept looking over at him wondering where my little baby went. He grew into his new do in no time! Now I can't imagine him the other way. Not to mention I now don't have people telling me what a beautiful little girl I have! So much less maintenance as well. Especially since the other day Malia slathered his head in mud! Now he and papa have the same do!

I was expecting a trim :) He looks cute and I love that he had David have the same buzz.

I remember Malia's hair in the face. He looks completely different with the buzz. Definitely "Amanda" through the eyes.

Wow! What a first haircut. It's cute, I just wasn't expecting that. Just remember sunblock for his ears and scalp. His uncle was pretty sensitive that age.
