The Boys' First Haircuts 1.10.2013

The time had come and we couldn't wait any longer...these shaggy boys needed haircuts!  After several recommendations from friends, we took the boys to Dusty's Barber Shop in downtown Sycamore.  Dusty did a great job and was amazing when it came to dealing with two squealing, squirmy little ones.  Overall, the boys handled it very well.  The hardest part was keeping them still while they wanted to turn and look at whatever tool was in Dusty's hands. There were a few tears, but what first haircut would be complete without them?

Andrew took the chair first...

We discovered that a few squirts of water helped quiet them down...they were thirsty!

While Andrew was getting his hair cut, John waited patiently in his car seat.  When his patience was all up, a friendly stranger who was waiting for his turn offered to hold John while Dad and the paparazzi (a.k.a. me) were busy.  This is just one of the many reasons why I love living in a small town.

John's turn next...

This kid looks like he belongs on "That 70's Show" with all that hair!

 

John was thirsty too

Nothing like some snacks to finish off our trip to the barber!

 Thanks Dusty, we'll see you again in a few weeks!
