Caitin: first ever hair cut

Saturday we decided it was time. Caitlin's hair has been in the orphan-looking stage for some time now and we decided we better do something about it. It was always hanging down into her face and looking stringy at the bottom. And keeping a ponytail or bow in is a challenge. Pigtails looked cute but she would rip those out too. What to do...
 So we took her to cookie cutters and decided to give it the much needed trim. Caitlin was NOT into it. As soon as we strapped her into her little pink car the tears started to flow and screaming ensued. We really pulled out all the stops: about 5 suckers, a balloon, Disney channel and even bubbles. She calmed down during certain points but overall was not a happy camper. After it was all over she was fine of course. The girl cutting her hair was SO patient and sweet and did a great job, especially considering what she had been put through.      
It was worth it though. Her little bob looks so cute! It makes her hair look a lot thicker and she looks so grown up with a little style. We may still grow it out but at least now i feel like her hair is in a better place to do so. My little girl is sure growing up!

After her haircut we got lunch and a treat and while we were driving around there were some people giving away free kittens. Paul was the closest he will probably ever be to getting a cat because of this reaction:

So cute but still didn't work.
