Ava's 1st Haircut at almost 18 Months...

the very "somber" Ava - scared to death Abby (my hairstylist) and Ava - still the stone face

It was kind of a last minute decision, but I decided since I was bringing Ava with me to get my haircut, we'd try to get her's trimmed as well. I lured her over the the chair with a cracker. I gave the rest of the crackers to Abby, and went and hid so Ava couldn't see me. She just sat there as still as could be with an extremely serious look on her face as Abby trimmed her hair. Everyone else in the salon kept commenting on how good she was. I have to admit, I was shocked she sat so nice. After Ava was finished, I had my hair washed and cut. As soon as I laid back for the wash, Ava burst into tears. Apparently, she thought Mom was getting hurt or something. She quickly got over it and was just fine for the rest of the time we were there. I can't believe she is big enough to get haircuts already. How time flies!
