manning's first haircut

i haven't been satisfied with any of the kid's haircuts we have gotten, so we just did manning's first haircut ourselves.  matt held him while i got a few quick snips.  i am going to have to go back and fix things when he isn't so tired, but at least he shouldn't be confused for a girl any more.  it was getting really bad - at least one comment a day about me "finally getting a girl".

so here are the before...

and the after...

it was way more blunt cut than i wanted but he would not let me get more than two snips

the biggest change is the departure of the "rat tail".

and he looks so much older too.  that is why i have waited until they turned one, but manning's hair was so long and hanging in his eyes all of the time that he really needed it now.

our last first haircut.  love.
