For those of you that have seen pictures, you know that Ethan was born with quite a bit of hair.
As of late, it has been getting quite out of control.
He lost some of the hair in the front, but the hair on top and on the sides was still quite long. THis resulted in a slightly disturbing "comb forward" (instead of a comb over) look.
Also, the hair in the back was getting long enough that it was almost safe to say he had
a bullet (baby mullet).
So Joe and I decided to try our hand at cutting his hair.
We were worried, so we waited until it was time for a bottle, got out Joe's clippers, and went to work.
Ethan was a champ. He didn't really fuss at all. He was curious about the sound the clippers made, but that was it. He didn't even care when we did the area around his ears. Way to go bud!
We cut quite a bit off (as evidenced by the picture below)

Post hair cut pose. The boy has been quite busy chewing on anything he can get his hands on these days. And, when he can't get his hands on anything, they do just fine.
(notice the need to have both stuffed into his mouth)

Too cute. Isn't baby hair crazy? I look back at pictures of Ella's hair and wonder why in the world I never trimmed it. It was bad. By the time Jane came I was over it. She got a trim a lot earlier and looked much cuter as a result.
Haha! A bullet? I haven't heard that before. He looks very handsome! I think it's always a big deal to give your baby their first hair cut :) Kira didn't get a hair cut until she was two, but she is a girl. We gave Carson one when he was a about 2 months old since he had some weird long hair in the middle of his head.
He is sooooooooooooo stinkin' cute!
CUTE! Love his new haircut--good job you two! :)
