Emmaline's First Haircut

Today we finally did it. After much talk about and debating if we should or shouldn't, we finally took Emmaline for her first real haircut. I've trimmed her bangs here and there (sometimes better than others), but she's never had the length cut. We finally decided it was time to get it cleaned up and the bangs cut straight before we head off on vacation in another month. It was much needed and glad we did it. We didn't get much cut off though. Just enough off the back to clean it up a little and the bangs trimmed so she can see. Emmaline was all excited when we left to go get her haircut, but by the time she got in the chair she wasn't too happy. She didn't like the cape put on her and she wasn't too excited to get the haircut. Her brother was super helpful telling her it would be o.k. and that he sits there like a big boy when he gets his haircut so she could do it. She did settle down after a few minutes, but had to hold mine or Greg's hand the whole time. Overall she did really good for her first time. Much better than Evan did when he was younger and we took him for his first haircut. Here's some pics of my little girl and her new haircut. It's really not much different than before, but you can tell she got a haircut.

All finished, but not overly thrilled with the whole experience!

A little happier now that she's home!
