Lucas's First Haircut

Lucas's First Haircut
October 4

 Our little Lucas, always into something.  He takes any opportunity to hop into the dishwasher, so you have to load and close it FAST!  He also really likes the cupboard under the counter with the fancy dishes and electrical cords.

 I love how intently he is sifting through the bag of electronics that he poured out!

 I don't know if I was quite ready for this, but it was time for Lucas's first haircut!  My friends had told me that they waited too long with their baby boys and were sorry when they looked back at pictures of their mullets.  We were moving into mullet territory!  My friend Ashly offered to cut it for him.  Lucas did a pretty good job, and didn't cry, but he kept moving around to see what she was doing.  Ashly was amazing at cutting a moving target!  She was scared to cut too much and have me upset, but I was just grateful to have her help.  He was so much more comfortable being at her house than in a salon.  We didn't have to cut very much, just enough to even up the back and trim up the sides.  She did a little on the top so we can spike it if we want.  He is a pretty handsome guy!  Thanks Ashly!

 Owen and Lucas started a binky battle shortly afterwards, trading their binkies back and forth.  It was mostly Lucas being a little binky bully.  He wanted to hold all of them!

 The back of his new do!

 Lucas loves taking baths in the sink because he's up high and in the kitchen right with the action.  He especially loves to push on the thing behind him that squirts out soap.

Throughout these pictures he has a bruise on his cheek.  I'm not sure how he got that particular one, but he seems to have multiple all the time.  He is a rough and tumble guy!
