The Hoppers: Evan's FIRST haircut!

We finally took Evan for his first haircut. I can't believe he lasted until almost 17 months. We wanted to go to this cute little place off 121 called Groovy Kids Cuts. We went in and it was a precious little store. Each station had it's own TV and one side of the store had video games the kids could play WHILE getting their hair cut. Talk about tricky for the stylist. The other side of the store was geared toward little kids and had the cute cars and animals that you could sit in while you are getting your hair cut. This side also had tvs the kids could watch. Very kid friendly atmosphere. Well, the place was packed at it was over an hour wait. We didn't want to wait that long, so we thought we would try another place on 121.

Mark drove us to a place called Snip-its! It is also a cute little store, but not as fun as Groovy's. Our stylist was wonderful. She blew some bubbles for Evan and he loved it. We put Evan in the chair and he was just taking everything in. Then when the lady started cutting his hair, Evan started to lose it. You will notice he is clutching his bunny for dear life in all of the pictures. He also has his pacifier, but that is a whole other story....sigh!! Overall, I would say Evan did really well. He survived his first hair cut and loved that he got a prize at the end. He got to insert a card in this machine for being brave and he received a squirt gun. It was a huge hit! I do have to say that I am very sad my little man looks so big now. I loved his curls. I miss running my fingers through he long hair to keep it out of his face. We all know it is better, especially in this heat, for him to have short hair, but it will take a little adjustment from this hormonal, pregnant woman. My little boy is just growing up too fast!!
