Little Man got his first haircut today! I had been struggling with making the decision to do this for a few months. Finally, I decided it was time. Words can't even begin to describe how much I love his curls. They are blonde and perfect. The only problem is, they are only in the back. Yep, the hair on the top of his head is STICK straight. It's like he has Matt's hair in the back and my hair on top. Strange? Anyway, as much as I wanted to just trim the top I was told my more than one person that he would end up with a mullet. I'm not that mom. I won't do that to my sweet baby boy. We took him to Barber Dan, the barber my Dad goes to. It's a real man's man kind of place. It's the kind of place that you get a beer (in a can) tossed your way if you wait longer than an hour on a Sunday. I'm pretty sure they would have kicked me out if it weren't my baby boy's first haircut. They could tell it was a big deal because I had my obnoxiously big camera with me. I have a feeling this may be the last haircut I get to go to, it's probably going to be a Daddy and Hudson kind of thing from now on. I loved Barber Dan, he was great with Hudson. Hudson on the other hand was not as happy with Barber Dan. I'll let the pictures tell the story.
First, some before pictures....

Here goes nothin'
And the meltdown begins....
Attempting a candy bribe
It worked for about 8 seconds
"You've got to pull it together man!"
The most pitiful face you've ever seen
All done
