Mourn with me, friends.
Joseph's enormous, flossy, golden ringlets are no more.
After standing strong in the face of many "What a beautiful girl!" comments and even enduring my family's assertion that it had turned into a mullet, I finally gave in. We took Joseph for his first haircut this week.
I was proud of myself because I did not stampede right into The Ugly Cry (heaving, red nose, hiccups...you get the idea) but just quietly cried as they shingled his hair. We have one long ringlet tucked into his baby book.
His hair is super coarse and heavy, just such "boy hair'. It took me about a day to get used to it but Brian swears Joseph is happier (whatever).
He doesn't look as much like a baby anymore. Now he looks like an 18 month old little toddler boy.
