First haircut (oh yeah, and walking too)
On December 7, Christopher and I took Simon for his first haircut at a Milton institution - Mike’s barber shop. Unfortunately Mike wasn’t working that afternoon, but one of the other hairdressers took good care of him. Simon was not impressed with the whole experience, and he especially didn’t like the scissors near his ears, but after the hairdresser offered him a yellow sucker he settled down enough for her to quickly finish the job.
When I look at the “before” shots now I wonder why it took us so long to get his hair cut. It’s pretty long and wild!

About a month ago Simon started walking in earnest. Until then he was wobbly and often crawled instead, but those days are gone and he’s strictly bipedal now. Lots of people told me it would be even more work once he was walking, but so far it’s been great. He’s able to entertain himself better now, and he seems very happy about mastering this new skill. Plus it’s really cute.
Simon, You look so handsome and grownup with your hair cut! Way to go on the walking!! I love the video.
love, Gramma xoxoxo
The reason you didn’t cut his hair sooner is because it changes the baby into the boy! What a transformation! He is a little boy, walking and babbling and giggling when his mom is kissing his neck! What a cutie! love Nana.
