First Haircut

Seems like Tabby is intent on hitting the milestones lately. Turning 2. Getting rid of the binky. Insisting that she needs her hair cut. This has been going on for about a week. I'm guessing someone (more than one someone?) put the idea into her head, but she's been regurgitating it to us off and on for a while. “Need hair cut.” We couldn't really disagree … It looked great in pigtails (hopefully it still will), but it was getting pretty scraggly and she was constantly pushing her bangs out of her eyes.

So we took her down to Lollilocks to have it ceremoniously trimmed up a bit. They are a kid-specific “salon” with riding animal chairs and plenty of cute little barretts, etc. for her. The stylist knew all the tricks and trimmed her up in a jiffy. Tabby did pretty well for the duration, but was sort of over it by the end and fussed when she tried to style her hair and then take her photo. Luckily, she was easily bought off with a lollipop (yes, I know, choking hazard, bad mom, blah blah).

I definitely wouldn't take her back there everytime ($$ yikes!) but it was really fun to do that for her first experience. I don't know that I'll be taking her there for a baby pedicure anytime soon though … though she'd probably be all over that action.
