Build A Bear and Paige's First Haircut

Part 1: Paige at the Build A Bear Workshop!

I know you've all been on the edge of your seats waiting on the Build A Bear Workshop and First haircut pictures, so here they are.....

Part 2: Paige's First Haircut!


For some reason this week I decided that maybe cutting Paige's hair would stimulate some much needed growth. I've seen little girls that are younger than her with full out ponytails...soooo NOT fair! I'm thankful that we have been able to graduate to a small "ponytail", if you can call it that, but I'm ready for much more. So, I was advised that maybe trimming her hair could jump start some new growth. I made an appointment with Michelle, the hairdresser that does my hair, my mom's hair, my sister's hair, several of my aunts hair, and all of my in-laws as well. There was simply no other person that I would trust with this task...because it would be so challenging and all-ha! Paige was a bit traumatized at first and didn't want to sit in the chair all by herself, so she sat in my lap. I had taken her to the doctor earlier in the afternoon and she hadn't gotten a great nap, so she wasn't in the best of moods. Thank goodness my Mom showed up and was able to operate the camera! I wouldn't have wanted to miss this first in Paige's life!

I was seriously trying not to cry!

Paige was NOT wanting to cooperate! She just needed a little lovin'!

She was doing better once we got her a "ball"...aka gumball...out of the machine. She didn't know that they were to chew, so it was a great way to keep her occupied!
