Once again, Owen desperately needed a haircut. His hair grows like weeds and the bed head was becoming out of control. Luckily they were able to get him in right away and my mom was able to go along since it requires two people. One person holds him and gets covered in hair. The other person tries to distract him and feeds him snacks. I was very weary at first because he was clinging to me the moment we arrived and his bottom lip was quivering. I could tell he wanted to cry, but was trying not to. He's been doing that lately, and it breaks my heart! He decided he wanted Lala to hold him this time so she took one for the team and got covered in hair. He did great! He realized haircuts don't hurt and by the end he was even smiling and dancing. We kept telling him that his haircut looks so nice and daddy will just love it. Hopefully he is over his haircut anxiety, but you never know what next time will bring. After the haircut we went to the playground to play before dinner.
