The Hairy Elephant

So we did it. We got Dommie's hair cut. Nick was so excited about it. I had mixed emotions. We got to the place a little late (stupid construction :-) ) and our lady, Andrea, was up front waiting for us. She led us to the back of the salon and had us pick out a movie for Dom to watch while getting his hair cut. We picked out "The Wiggles" because it had a lot of music, and Dom LOVES music. Then we got to pick out his chair. There was a train and a jeep. We went for the jeep because it was closest and had a steering wheel for him to play with.

Then we got started.





He did so great. I was amazed. He just sat there and played on the jeep while Andrea did her thing. And I was very impressed with how well she did. Dom would randomly jump up and she never messed up! If I were cutting his hair, he'd be missing a big chunk of hair! Or worse, an ear! She was perfect.

In the end, she took a picture and made a certificate for his baby book that also contained a lock of his hair. The whole experience was great.

I'm not sure we'll drive all the way out there for each of his haircuts, but for this one it was perfect!







And just for fun, a picture of Dommie on his rocking horse with his new hair cut. He loves this rocking horse!!
