I’ve never understood the dread some moms feel over the first haircut for boys. When my son first had a few hairs longer than about 2 inches, I whipped out the clippers faster than you can say “buzz cut.” I don’t like buzz cuts, but I was anxious to keep his hair even. Now I LOVE his short (but no longer buzzed) hair. It makes him look like my little man! His outfits are about twice as cute on him when his hair is recently cut. Hopefully you’ll fall in love with Wito the little man even more than Wito the baby, if that’s possible with such a cutie!!!
Has Wito not had a cut yet? I love his shaggy hair ( I mean shaggy in a good way) and wish Charlie’s looked that good with a little length. Unfortunately he has inherited all of his parents cowlicks and it has a mind of its own.
He’s already had his hair cut a couple of times. First, we did the trimming of the bangs, which slowly morphed into a mullet, then we took it all off in the back and left the front longer. Now, it’s just grown out all over, but we definitely don’t want it super short.
We’ll use D’s clippers with a decent-sized guard to keep it from looking like he’s off to war.
And THAT’S the detailed history of Wito’s hair. Good night and good luck! ;)
Wow. That one took me a second. He looks older in that picture. I thought, “No way is that little Wito!” But it is. And he’s stinkin’ adorable. Ponytail and all :)
oh dear. it’s cute, though i’m sure daddy might want the elastic to go bye-bye. it almost breaks my heart that it’s going to get cut, because i have recently grown quite fond of the idea of someday having a little boy with floppy, moppy hair. though, i do realize being able to see out from under it is sort of a necessity.

I thought it was SAJ’s Baby Bug when I first saw the top of the picture – lol :o) He is the most gorgeous baby, EVAH! Those eyes of his are just beautiful!
PS – What kind of camera do you use?
PPS – Would D. fly to Cincy and make our house look just like ya’lls crib? It seriously needs to be in a design magazine!!!!

February 19, 2008 at 3:53 pmHee hee. I know the first cut is hard, but just think how pretty his eyes will look without all the hair in the way.

February 19, 2008 at 5:10 pmWe did that to Charlie when he was about Wito’s age. But we used a pink clip shaped like a butterfly.
Yeah that won’t give him issues at all. Noooo.

You need to do what I do with Zach…. take a number 2 to his head, and give Wito the good ole buzz cut!
