Well, we finally did it. We took Calvin to get his first haircut. I'd been putting this off for a long time because I knew that a major melt down would occur. Calvin did not disappoint! He was so loud that people waiting to get their haircut came to see what was going on.
We tried to put a cape on Calvin but he did not want anything to do with it. Oh well, at least Dan was protected from all the fuzzy baby hair.
Getting his hair combed. He was okay with this until Sarah wouldn't give him a third comb to hold along with his other two and a bottle of fingernail polish.
We tried the scissors first but Calvin wouldn't sit still so out came the clippers.
Poor Calvin! I don't know if it was the noise from the clippers, being held, or a combination of the two but he was not happy.
It's hard to tell from this angle but his face was beet red! He was one very angry kiddo.
Help me mama! Strangely, Calvin wanted me to rescue him and not Dan. I've noticed in the past couple of weeks that Calvin is becoming less clingy and doesn't need Dan to be holding him all the time and has been willing to be held by others. He's still very opinionated about who can touch him but he's been allowing a select few to be near him. He's also become very jealous of Cricket. If Cricket happens to be sitting on one of our laps Calvin will come over and try to sit on our lap as well. It's an added bonus if Cricket leaves to find a new place to sleep. He's also jealous of other babies. I was holding another baby the other day while at a friend's house and Calvin let me know in no uncertain terms that he was not pleased.
