Hair today, gone tomorrow!

Amity got her first haircut today! Well, it wasn't truly her first trim but it was her first cut by a professional! No offense, Shannon! In the last month, Amity's hair has really begun to grow and grow. It's quantity is still nothing compared to her cute friend Ella but it had gotten to the point of a little unruliness. At lunchtime today, we decided to make a trip around the corner to the local barber where Dennis gets his hair cut. While the lady normally only cuts hair from the male-gender, she made an exception since Amity's hairstyle is not much different from a boy's at this point in her hair-journey. Amity did a great job and never fussed (although the pictures do indicate a few moments of concern). She loved the mirrors and would have loved to have gotten her hands on those scissors.

This next one reminds me of the scene in Little Women where Jo laments, "My hair!" and Amy replies, "Jo, how could you? Your one beauty!"

Here is an "after" picture from the back. What a cute little head!

Here is the best picture we could get from the front. We had a giggly girl on our hands!
