Lowlights GONE!

BEFORE
So everyone, including Stephen and I, were constantly blown away by, not only how much, but how strange and crazy Chloe's hair was. She was born with LOADS of thick dark hair. I just assumed that it would all fall out and grow back in like most babies' hair does. But no....hers just kept growing and growing and growing. So then we ended with a 6 month old who had longer hair than most 2 or even 3 year olds. Crazy! So, after it bugging me for months and months (regardless of people saying how awesome it was and how cool it looked), I couldn't handle it anymore, and her locks are much shorter! (Let me explain another thing...the locks growing in were not brown like the original hair, they were BLONDE. It just looked weird and slightly dirty. AND, it was always in her eyes and mouth...yeah!) It was quite the feat cutting it with her being awake. I just threw her in the Baby Bumbo and went for it. Thus, the finished product. (She does look a little like a boy now, so I definitely need to constantly have bows in the hair now). It'll grow!
AFTER!

I love the picture of Chloe asleep in the jumper, Ethan always fell asleep like that. And cute hair! I'm excited to see her in person. Good job on cutting it yourself!

The haircut is cute! I've been wondering if I need to get Kirsten's hair cut soon, hers is so long and crazy too. But hers is stick straight, with no curl in it at all. Wow, Kirsten has never fallen asleep in her jumper or anything. I can't imagine her doing it!

She looks like a totally different baby! Still adorable though. I can't wait to see how she looks when it grows out. You were sooooo brave to cut those curls!

Little Chloe bug! She is adorable, with or without the rocker hair! Love her little smile! Maybe Garrett will take lessons on falling asleep in the jumper! :)

I had such a hard time with Bruce's first hair cut. I actually was mad at Brian after he was done because Bruce didn't look like my little baby anymore :( She looks very cute! Were you sad after it was done?
