Sweet Pea's First Haircut

Like CC at this age, Sweet Pea's hair is getting longer, but it's very thin and scraggly. Time for her first haircut! The family trooped on down to our local kids' salon, where Sweet Pea was not happy about getting her hair trimmed.

As soon as she sat down in the little police car, she started screaming:

She buried her face in the steering wheel for most of the cut (which, fortunately, kept her head fairly still for the stylist):

After the cut, the stylist asked if she should bother with the hair dryer, since it sometimes scares young kids. I said, "Why not?" Sweet Pea was already crying, so it wouldn't make anything worse. 

I shouldn't have been surprised that Sweet Pea stopped crying as soon as the hair dryer was turned on! She's such a contrarian!

All done, and looking beautiful:

P.S. Little Man also received a haircut during this visit to the salon, and for the very first time he did not cry. Shocking! He must have figured that his twin did enough crying for both of them.
