Haircut!

Since Ethan has turned 9 months now, we decided it was time for his first hair cut. I know our faithful blog readers had voted that we should NOT cut his hair, but his little mullet was just driving me crazy!
So, we put a bib on backwards to catch any hair, sat Ethan in his high chair, mom got out the scissors, and dad helped by entertaining Ethan and taking pictures.
Mom was somewhat embarrassed by her handiwork. There is a clump that got cut too far up on the side of his head. On the other hand, he looks much better without the mullet.
Mom decided to take Ethan to Cost Cutters tonight after his 9 month check-up (more on that later . . . .) to get the haircut "cleaned up." The guy ("J-J") who cut E.'s hair told me I cut too far into the hair line for him to fix it at all, but he did get out the clippers and buzzed around Ethan's ears. I must say, he looks really cute with his big boy hair cut. (Pictures to come later!)

At Ethan's 9 month check up we found out he weighs . . . .27 lbs 9 oz. He is one big guy. That's well over the 100th percentile. He's also in the 97th for length and head circumference so he's a big dude all around!

Saturday we are getting his 9 month pictures taken. . . . should be fun!

Can't wait to see the new do! Glad the decision was made... that last pic with the mullet and turtleneck was pretty hilarious! Now that Ethan's 9 mo, it's time for a more "professional" look.

Whoa, 27 pounds!! Lily just weighed in this week, too, at her 2 year appointment. Ethan beat her by 4 pounds! Ha! Ethan, you are definitely in the 100th percentile for cuteness!
