The Mange...

Oh, how fast my little guy is growing up. It scares the crap out of me how quickly we are hitting the milestones already. Preston is probably my first child where I feel like "Sloooowww down. Stay little. There's no rush." I am enjoying Preston every step of the way.

So this is why I have to admit what a wienie I am. I was so sad because we HAD to cut this poor child's hair. Break a mother's heart. And I mean HAD. To. This little boy was born with so much hair!!! Which was great because we loved it. It was gorgeous and flowing and he worked it.


and them it turned into this:



This hairdo we lovingly referred to as "The Mange." Can you see it? Feel free to avert your eyes if it is causing you actual physical pain. It is Home-ly.

Bless his heart.
Thus Preston's first haircut at 3 months!!! Gasp!


But SOOO much better than "The Mange" 'do he was rockin'.
Trust.

I can't believe how big that boy is getting - SO cute!! I miss you, Kristi!!

Mia said...

Kristi! You can't cut a baby's hair until he is one. It is a rule..... somewhere. Ok well he is adorable with mange or neatly buzzed.

Melissa said...

He is SO stinkin' cute. I love his eyes. He looks like such a tiny man at the sink getting his hair cut. He's such a good mix of you and Nolan.

Andrea said...

How cute is this?! The picture at the sink is hilarious. He looks like such a little man! But you're right, he is getting too big, too fast.

Dustin hates that I cut Jensen's hair, because he has lots too. But I'm with you, you just can't have crazy baby hair. He looks great!

Melissa said...

Oh so cute...but I'm sort of a fan of the mange! It gives him "kick"!

tara said...

I love that you "found" me! Another blog I can stalk!!! hahaha
I think it looks like we are in the same boat with our three kids at the same ages perhaps? Girl first, then two boys. And our babies only a few months apart? FUN! :) You have a beautiful family! I shall be back often to check on all your cuteness!

Oh my word, you guys make cute babies. Preston is adorable! What a handsome little guy. Good call on his hair cut. Love love those big blue eyes. Great job on growing stuff in your garden too! I'm impressed! How do you have time for that?!?

Congrats on your little guy. I check your blog but never said congrats. It's way over due. MY little boy had hair but it all fell out so we didn't have to bother cutting it. My husband is applying to grad school in austin. You'll have to fill me in on how you like it there.
