Trimming of baby hairs

This mother determined that it was time to cut Tru's hair. After seeing it from a distance from the podium at church, I realized the thick, long patches of hair just above his ears needed to be trimmed. We don't want any of the comb-over look here. He's got a baldie spot in the back from getting rubbed off. And the rest of his hair is nice and fine and smooth. But the front ~ it had to go. Sorry Tru.

Abe was the photographer for the event. And he sure went to town with that job. These were all of his shots.
It was a bit awkward trying to cut a 3-month-old's hair (it probably didn't help that Max was playing on the bed right beside me). I'm not a professional either - which didn't help any.

These 2 are my favorites:See - even with less hair, he's still a happy camper.
I always get a little sad trimming that silky smooth baby hair. It never grows back so soft. Don't grow up too fast little Truman!

Abe did good photos. Truman is such a bright-eyed little gummer!

What a CUTE smile he has. I love it. I am impressed that you were able to cut his hair. Abe is a pretty good photographer. I would hire him. :)

I like how Abe snuck in a couple shots of his cute self...

I'm impressed! I've only dared to give Bryce a trim in the back to calm the mullet, and even then it came out super crooked. Thank goodness for curls - it's harder to see my mistakes. He looks so handsome!!
