Finley's First Haircut... Gasp!

We had an exciting weekend. Saturday we celebrated Grandmo's 80th birthday and boy was that fun! She was so surprised and excited to see all of her family and friends (many she hadn't seen in awhile). Finley and Kieran were hits of course and had a great time being passed around and entertaining everyone.

Sarah was trying to teach Finley to walk. Finley cracks me up in this pic. I think he looks like Curious George on his shirt!


Kieran got plenty of cuddle time from Grandmo...


Finley thought the buckle on Pabba Lowell's overalls was fascinating...


Kieran was happy in his bouncer between snuggles from relatives...


Finley had the MOST fun crawling through his tunnel that Grandmommy and Pabba Ted got him...


His favorite new saying is "Finley did it!"... He repeats it often when he does something he's proud of! He also loves to clap with excitement!

Yesterday, we had another great day but one that was hard on me. lol Finley got his first haircut. Dad was due for a haircut so we decided to get Finley's trimmed up too. I have been hesitant to get it cut since he has such beautiful curls but it has been growing in uneven. He had sort of a backwards mullet with the sides really long and the back shorter. The lady who cut it evened it all up and I am happy to report he still has some curl! What a relief... I thought he'd look older, but to me, he looks younger. What do you think?

Here is Finley waiting for his haircut with dad at the salon... See how it's sort of uneven and was starting to look straggedly?

Sitting like a good boy getting his cut...


Tada! How do I look?

And here are a few photos from today after we washed it...

Finley's haircut looks so good! Good call on keeping some of those curls - they are too precious snip off completely! Thanks for coming over to play, we had a blast. -Mari
