Will's First Haircut!

Yesterday Pops was going to get his hair cut at Mr. Clay's Barber Shop and John and I decided it was time Will get a trim. The hair on top had gotten really long and he looked like he just had a bad comb over sometimes :) My dad has gone to Mr. Clay for as long as I can remember and he has teased Will about taking him there for about 6 months. So we only thought it appropriate for Pops to accompany Will for his first hair cut.
Mr. Clay was super patient with Will and talked to him about the whole process before he actually brought out the scissors...Once the pep talk was over, Will got suited up...
And then the cutting began...Will was not a fan of the squirt bottle, but he held it together...because this is what he was more interested in...
His sucker! The kid has never had one. I think we can add Dum Dums (particularly the blue raspberry to his favorites list).
Pops even helped out holding the sucker so Will would stay still. As long as that sucker was in his mouth, he was good to go!
This is what he did when we told him how handsome he looked. I think he just wanted his sucker back (look at that blue mouth)!Thank you Mr. Clay for making Will's first haircut such a pleasant experience (and thank you for having Dum Dums!!!!)

OMG, he looks 2 years old here. What a big boy! I have thought about taking Ryan for her first haircut just because she is not a fan of the bows and her hair is always in her face, but I never knew around what age that should happen...now I do. I love reading the blog and catching up on you guys. I hope Ryan's first birthday party is as much fun as Wills'. You guys did such a great job with everything!
