Goodbye Baby Mullets...

Eli's baby mullet

So before I had kids, boys to be specific... I would look at little toddler boys (who could have passed for girls if they just had a bow...) with their long locks, and think to myself, "Come on Mom, cut his hair... he looks like a girl... Poor kid..."

Isaac's Baby Mullet

Fast forward to present day- Me with two sweet little, blonde-haired boys, who's hair would curl up especially sweet when it was hot outside...  And before I knew it, I too was the proud owner of boys who were getting a little too close to needing ponytails and bows to keep their hair out of their face and off the back of their neck.  "Uh oh... I've become that mom..." I thought to myself, and after a few more days of brushing and admiring those sweet, but-just-a-little-bit-too-long locks... I knew it was time... for the first haircuts.

So today, Mr. Mart (mommy and Dee Dee's hair stylist) cut the boys hair for the 1st time.  The boys love to have their hair brushed and even like to play with the hair dryer, too- so I was pretty confident they would cooperate and even enjoy this little event.  They did not disappoint- they were little rock stars, as usual...

Oh, and Eli even got to go 1st...

Chewing on a comb, being so good and still...

Tada!  Of course I had to go with a spiky cut for Eli... He wasn't cute enough with just the glasses ;)

Dee Dee, Eli, and Mart- Yeah! for Haircuts!

Isaac's Turn!  Before...

Loving his sucker... not caring at all what anyone else is doing...

Still lovin' the sucker...

Yeah, so handsome! (Still with the sucker...)

Eli and Mart- with the same hair cut ;)

Big boy- Yeah for haircuts!

Watching Sesame Street... looking very studly...

What a heart-breaker!

"Hey I look good..."  Isaac's self portrait with the iPhone...

Watching "Baby Bear gets a Haircut", of all things, on Sesame Street back at home...

Oh yeah, and I actually got my hair cut, too...!!!

Thank you Mr. Mart for being so good to our family and our hair :).  We love you!

And a special shout out to Dee Dee and Poppo for coming along to help hold extra babies... and taking pictures and videos... and make sure the hair clippings made it into the baggies, for that memory book I'm gonna get around to making one day...
