First Haircut

It's hard to believe that Liam hasn't had a haircut yet, but it's true. Today was his first one, and it was special, particularly for Paul. Liam's first cut was at Nally's Barber Shop and was performed by Kenny, the same guy (pictured below with Mark, Liam, and Paul) who gave both Paul and Mark their first haircut! And apparently he used to cut Paul's dad's hair as well...though he didn't give him his first one--wouldn't that be remarkable!



Liam did pretty well. He cried at first, so I had to sit in the chair with him, and then our camera and Paul's camera ran out of batteries, so the pic was taken on Mark's phone, thus the questionable quality. Liam is excited because he can see himself in the mirror across the way. But still, a memory preserved. Poor Grady...I wonder if we are going to have 10% of the photos of him that we have of Liam's first year. Here's a couple of him, for the record.

Now that is a HILARIOUS picture, not to mention a pretty cool tradition!!!
Grady is perfecto, can't wait to meet him next week.

Who knew a haircut could be such a historic moment - cool! I like the b&w of Grady. Yah, I'm worried that I'm already not doing enough for the second one. But in the long run, I think it all works out and it's about the love from the heart anyway.
