Yesterday we finally gave Benjamin his much-needed first haircut. Lately he's been looking a little trashy with his mullet. Cathy wanted to do it after a bath but needed me to help to distract Benjamin while she snipped his golden locks. He has really beautiful, soft blonde hair and we didn't want to lose that. Now looking at him with it trimmed up he looks so much better.
We put him in his high and brought it in to his room. I grabbed some pictures of Benjamin at the beginning while Cathy trimmed around his ears. He had looks of concern about what exactly was going on around him but seemed alright. Then it came time to cut off the mullet in the back.
I put down the camera and started to play with my son. Nothing too exciting but enough for him to lean forward and allow Cathy to cut the hair around the back. He watched Daddy kiss his foot and laughed as he tried to stick his finger in Daddy's mouth.
Once it was all done, Cathy and I stepped back and evaluated her beautician skills. "Not bad," I told her.
It kind of made it special for us that we gave Benjamin his first hair cut and at the same time scary at what the potential outcome could've been. Cathy thinks it accentuates his attractive head. (I know it sounds weird but he does have a good looking keppellah.)
Thankfully his first haircut wasn't traumatic to either Benjamin or his parents. And in the end our good-looking kid looks even better.

he gets cuter every day.
We know but it's good to hear it from others.
