The long and the VERY short of it

My kid was long overdue a haircut, we wanted to grow it, in that 'cool-kid-with-long-hair' kind of way, but it was in that inbetween stage which just made it look messy, so...we decided to shave it all off, and boy did we go to town on it, we lopped the lot off and I can't get over how short it is! I'm surprised he let us do it to be honest (although a bribe of having a toy might have had something to do with it ;P)

I actually think it looks very cool, practical and make him look so much older, where has my baby gone! We did an impromptu photosession today, to show off the new 'do' - he actually only just been to the docs for his pre-school booster and he was such a brave little lad just sitting on my lap looking bewildered wondering what the woman with the funny thing in her hand was doing. We tentively told him about it beforehand and so he knew what was to be expected, but I was so anxious to get it over and done with for him, but he was really good bless him, and he was given a choice of different chocolates and a sticker from the nurse - hmmm I never got this special treatment when I was a little girl...my how times have changed eh!

Anyway, these were the photographs from our little mini-session, doesn't he look so gorgeous and all grown-up?
