Our Little Sampson and the Cookie Cutters Curse



We took Caden for his first haircut today. I LOVE his hair, but have been wanting to get it trimmed to help with some skin issues he's been having. He just needed a little hair taken off the top and above his ears. I could have done this myself, but I thought we should go all out for his first haircut and take him to Cookie Cutters and get the certificate and all of that. Plus, they're professionals, they'll make sure it looks good.

I had a bad feeling about the haircut this morning and started having second thoughts. I've learned that when you have a bad feeling like this...trust your gut. Caden is such a sweet boy and has the cutest hair. What if he was like Sampson and his pleasant nature had a direct connection to his hair, like Sampson's strength? Would cutting his hair turn him into a holy terror? The answer is no. However, he received the WORST haircut EVER given to a baby. It's quite a sad sight. I'm soooo upset with the lady who did it, but also with myself for taking him for a haircut in the first place. My poor, sweet baby! On the bright side, I happened to buy him a summer hat earlier this week. It looks like he'll get to break it in a little earlier than planned. We'll be getting our money's worth out of that hat.

Surely it will look better before his pictures in two weeks.....yikes! :(
