Coming Along

Mason had a haircut yesterday and for the first time he sat in the chair by himself! Normally Dan or I have to wear the cape and hold him. We didn't even try to put a cape on him since we didn't want him to freak out. He didn't sit this nicely for the whole haircut, but at least he stayed in the chair. As you can see, we still had to bribe/distract him with suckers. He always needs one in both hands. He ended up taking one more for the road, also! Holly is always very patient with him and despite his wiggling around, she normally gets it pretty straight. Mason has been going to her since his first haircut at 4 1/2 months and he is always disappointed if he has to sit in a different stylist's chair. His hair grows crazy fast, so we take him in about every 5 weeks. I'd love it if he had waivy hair so we could grow his it out, but it's bone straight and it bugs me when it gets long. Soon he'll be able to pick his own hair styles! I'll try to find photos from his first haircut to post later.
