First Haircut

Yesterday Jennifer cut Elisa's hair for the first time. No huge changes took place, but it was an event. We mainly just wanted to even things up a little bit. Elisa did a great job of sitting still (most of the time) while Jennifer hacked away! There were a couple of close calls when Elisa started twisting her body while saying, "Look Momma! I twistin'!"

Elisa was pretty interested in the whole process. We will be sure to hide the scissors really well now! I held a mirror up for her so she could see what was going on. I was also able to get a few good photos too. Here are some "before", "during" and "after" pictures... and a video of some of the action.

A "before" profile picture.

Elisa is showing what she looked like from behind before the cut.

During the cut: "What are you doing back there, Momma!"

Elisa began to get a little restless about half-way through the process.

Here is the "after" shot of Elisa. I think her Momma did a great job!
