I took my son for his first haircut today.  This was the first haircut I have taken one of my children to.  Yes Minnie is nearly three, but she has gorgeous blonde curls so I’m just letting them grow until they turn into a bird’s nest.  Plus my sister has told me so many horror stories about how hairdressers butcher curls I feel a responsibility to protect her from the abuse.

Before I took my son for his haircut he looked like the little baby above.

After his haircut (which ran really rather smoothly thanks to a pack of chocolate raisins) he looked like this.

How to age your child in 15 minutes.  I now have a little boy.  Now I just need to get him to walk…
