Ella's First Haircut

This is the before shot. Ella likes to pull out any thing I put in her hair and it usually ends up looking like this by the end of the day.

Cute little baby bangs
This picture is for you, Katie Jane!


Ah, pure bliss!



So calm and poised

Grandma feeding Ella some of the best soup I've ever tasted


Ella was so calm and well behaved during her first hair cut. I think she really liked going to the hair dresser! I packed the kids up and brought them to Nancy's, where I always got my hair trimmed (it was never really cut until I was in college) growing up. She's the only one I trust with the very important first haircut! Grandma went in to get her eyebrows done, the eyebrows that I inherited from her. They can definitely be unruly! So, we had a day of beauty and then went right next door and had a fabulous lunch. If you're ever in the area, try the potato soup and cornbread. I really think it might have been the best soup I've ever had. The corn bread was pretty darn good too. I'm not going to say the best I've ever had because my grandmas both come from the south and can make some pretty mean cornbread. I thought it was so cute to see my grandma feeding Ella.

After lunch Will got a little emotional because he didn't get his hair cut. Poor thing. We had to schedule him an appointment for the following week just to appease him! That's my boy! It's all about the hair!

I loved the mullet-ish hair. She is a doll.
