If you've followed Brighton in pictures since he was born, you know he was born with a lot of dark hair. People kept telling me he was going to lose it all, and although he did develop a pretty significant bald spot, he never really lost his hair. Many of you have observed that he has my hair color and Jon's curls - makes sense I guess.
Bright is also increasingly referred to as a little girl which really doesn't bother me much. Part is definitely my fault because I dress him in fun colors, and at least one of the other reasons has to be his hair. In the last couple months it had become so long in sections that it really looked as though it needed to be swept up with a barrette or bow. And it could; the proof is HERE.
So....Bright had his first haircut this week. The average person probably won't notice because Auntie J didn't cut too much off. Jordan did trim it a bit so it stays of of his eyes and cut off all that really fine stuff on the ends.
Bright sat super still and kept watching Jordan or looking at what she was up to in the mirror.
Maybe he'll get called a girl less now....maybe not. It doesn't so much matter. It was a very fun experience for all of us.
PS: No, I did not keep his hair.

We(Grandma and Grandpa Raterink) love the post about the haircut. It's almost as good as being there!!!!
So cute! He looks like he did so well for Auntie Jordan! Fun times!
Oh, how cute is that. Super precious. I'm sure that it was fun for Auntie J to have Brighton at work. She's a proud aunt, no doubt. I'm sure his hair will be well taken care of throughout his life. By the way, mom's hair looks great too!
The pictures are fantastic. He looks adorable - but then he always looks adorable. Can't believe you did not keep a lock of hair for his book - better still cut a little piece off. (grandpa and grandma Nykamp)
