Logan's BIG Weekend

Two weekends ago Logan had some big changes that came to him.

The first one was...HE GOT HIS FIRST HAIRCUT!!!! I definitely knew it was time. He is 11 months and his hair was just getting too long. I put it off for awhile because I was nervous to give him one. I cut Dave's hair, but was just not ready to be cutting a baby's hair. I also didn't know what was the best way to cut it, with the clippers or the scissors. I talked to my Mom about it because she cuts hair and she said, "I wouldn't use the clippers because baby's are usually scared of the noise. You will probably want to use the scissors." I was even more nervous because I am not a pro and wasn't ready to be cutting his hair with scissors.

I finally buckled down Friday night and wanted to get it done. We put him in his high chair and gave him some animal crackers. Dave sat in front of him to entertain him and hold his hands.
I decided to try first with the clippers and if he really did not like it I would move to the scissors.
He totally didn't mind them at all!!! He was actually laughing! It was so cute!

Yummy crackers!!

A couple of pictures during the haircut...

After I got done with the clippers I needed to use the scissors to cut the hair around his ears. The minuted I touched his head he started crying! He didn't like the scissors at all!!! I was amazed because I thought like my mom it might be the other way around. I don't have any pictures with using the scissors. Sorry!

He was so good through the whole thing though!! I am so proud of him! My mom was completely amazed at how well he did!!

Just so you can see how long it was getting. Here is a before picture. This was taken just a couple days before we gave him his haircut.

Here is his new haircut!!
Such a little STUD!!


The second big change that happened to him was MOVING HIM INTO AN UPRIGHT CAR SEAT. I was really happy about the change! I was so tired of carrying him in the infant one. He was getting so heavy! We weighed him and he was almost 26 pounds. He is also super tall for his age so we knew that it was now time to make the switch!

He loved so much being able to see us and see out the window! He also loved being able to watch the movie that we have put on for Kaitlyn many times and he has not been able to see it!!


He was also clapping! I do think he was excited too!
