Ryder's 1st Haircut

Image
So we finally decided that Ryder's hair was getting too scraggly and needed to be cut. It was a tough decision. Whenever we washed it, it would stick straight up all over his head and we absolutely loved it. But it was getting so long that we started thinking maybe it wasn't so cute anymore. So here is the new do. The pictures are a bit deceiving. Mom did not actually do the cutting...she was too scared she would snip an ear or something. So Dad did the honors. It's a fine hair cut. You can see that Ryder was less than pleased about the whole thing. He was pretty patient until the very end when he saw that his luxurious locks had been lopped off. It took a few days to get used to the new Ryder, but now that we are used to the new look, we think he is quite handsome again.

Do you ever wonder why kids seem to get so much more excited when they see their dad over their mom? But then, moms don't generally send their baby boys flying through the air by the straps of their overalls...and moms try their best to hide their good chap stick from little girls who like to eat it or dig their fingers into it and wipe it all over the walls. No wonder they like to hang out with Dad...
