A haircut for Miles

John had been saying for quite awhile that he thought it was time for Miles to get his first haircut, but since he's my baby I was fighting it. John said he'd give me until Miles turned 18 months to get his haircut or he'd shave it off (I hope he was joking...), and I finally decided it was time when he was taking swim lessons, and with his hair wet he totally had a baby mullet. When it was dry it was cute and baby curls which made it so hard to get it cut.

I finally bit the bullet and took him to a kiddie hair cut place. He wasn't really scared at all, but he also didn't like being forced to sit still. Will was a great big brother and kept him entertained so the stylist could turn my baby into a big boy.

After...he looks like such a big boy now. :(

End of Preschool

Will has been done with preschool for almost a month now, but with moving I didn't have time to update the blog at all. He had a really great year attending preschool at Gethsemane Lutheran School. I was kind of nervous going into the school year because he wasn't going to know any of the kids and a lot of them were there the entire day for daycare, but he did great adjusting to going to school and making new friends. Most of his friends he's known since he was a baby or toddler, so I'm really proud of him for branching out and meeting new kids.

I wanted to make sure I got a picture of Will and his teacher, Mrs. Rogers. It definitely takes a very patient person to be a preschool teacher. I went on two field trips with Will's class and was ready for a cocktail by the end of each trip! We'll miss Mrs. Rogers and Gethsemane next year, but I'm so glad we had a great first school experience there!
