Trip to the Barber

Tonite we took Cohen for his second official haircut. Unlike the first time he wanted nothing to do with having his hair cut. As soon as we put him in the booster chair he started crying. He tolerated the cape and the cut but there were tears shed throughout. He loves to hold his cup of crackers so we let him hold them the entire time and we even had to break out the binky in hopes of stopping the tears. However, nothing seemed to work until of course Sheryl had finished. Then miraculously the tears dried up and he was a happy camper. Scott had been wanting to take Cohen to Sheryl to have his hair cut for quite some time. He has been getting his hair cut by Sheryl for for over 25 years. I really think he wanted to start a tradition with his son like his Mom did for him. She is such a nice lady and I felt so bad that Cohen cried and I apologized over and over again thinking to myself she will never want to cut his hair again. She was calm and cool throughout and even said she enjoyed seeing us (with a smile on her face) - so maybe he wasn't that bad. A mother can only hope.
