Aiden's First Haircut

OK, I finally caved and let Aiden get his first haircut. It was terribly out of control an looked a bit like he had wings coming out behind his ears. There is just something about that first cut that I never want to do (Todd has been begging me for weeks, OK months, to get it cut). Maybe I just love the fly aways of baby fine hair...makes them seem more like babies than toddlers :(

So after church today I let Maw Maw cut his hair. It went as expected, him turning his head every which way but the right way. Above is a pic I got during the action...after he tore the cape off and wouldn't leave it on. He is just too busy to sit and get a hair cut, but we managed to get it done without any tears!

I am not sure if he doesn't like it, but he left his hat on for a long time after we got home tonight...

...until Alyssa decided it was time to come off and she went over and gave it a yank.

So I guess I don't have any after shots, but I think he does look different.

Hopefully he will start walking soon, he will take 2-3 steps on his own. But only if it is his idea. If he decides he wants to get to something else not too far away he will take a few steps. If Todd or I am trying to convince him to walk to us forget it, he will just sit right down.
Hopefully soon...
