A Bittersweet Farewell To Jude's Mullet

Last night on a whim during bathtime, Colin and I decided to trim up Jude's hair. This would officially be his first haircut, which made me so sad because he's no longer a baby. Sigh. This haircut comes after many straighforward comments from family and friends (you all know who you are!) such as: "When are you cutting Jude's hair. No really. When?" or "I saw Jude's pictures on your blog and his hair really needs to be cut." Subtle. I think I felt I would lose his babyhood when his locks were cut and today he did seem a bit more like a boy.

Here is Colin cutting it last night and Samuel doing who knows what to the camera - do you like that I blurred out his boy parts?
Here's the after shot - ok, so you can't see all of the hair, but you get the idea.
And this is the before shot of his mullet. Maybe I should grow it out again....
