Eric's first haircut

Eric's hair is a little different than Owen's hair. . .

. . . at not quite 14 months, it is already a bit stringy, and has been growing into quite a mullet over the last several months, whereas Owen's hair at 18 months was still pretty manageable and pretty even all around.

We tried to wait until Eric was 18 months old so he could do his first haircut at the same age his brother did, but Eric kept smushing food into his hair, making the stringiness and mullet look more noticeable instead of less. ;-P

So, here are the pictures of his first haircut, done today by a professional to make sure that I didn't accidentally overcut, especially since his hair is pretty fine as well. :)

I am also posting the pictures of Owen's first haircut at the bottom of this posting so you can compare. I didn't really think Owen and Eric looked that much alike when Eric was first born, but they do seem to be growing closer in looks as Eric ages!
