about that haircut...



I know, once again it's been forever since the last blog post. A lot has happened since then, and I'll catch you up on more of that soon (honest), but first let's check in on Elliot Haircut Watch, where there has been some Thanksgiving BREAKING NEWS.


You'll remember we had a poll this summer with the majority of you voting against Elliot getting a haircut.

Still, there were signs that we might have to reconsider our options.


Maybe something a comb or brush could remedy?


Or perhaps an extra bath or two each day...



By this week he was looking like a feral child, even moments after bathing.


It was clear that we really needed to do something.


Can you tell how thrilled Elliot was for his First Haircut?


settling in...


distracted by a basket of throw-able toys...


In case you can't tell, he and dad were also sick for this excursion.



Finished product! We elected to keep most of the length, mainly cleaning up the scruffy ends.

ADORABLE! I think that it was time. Makes for a fun adventure. Some kids cry- but he looks like he was enjoying it. Uncle Grant is so proud!

Good job Team Weir. The finished "product" is even cuter in person. And the curls survived!
