Anna's Haircut

Anna's hair is a bit of a sore subject with me.  She doesn't like me to do her hair and if I ever do, she immediately messes it up on purpose.  As a result, her hair looks very disheveled most of the time.  And I feel like I need to explain to people that I do bathe her and care for her despite the way her hair looks.  Anyway, I cut her hair today for the first time (other than trimming her bangs).  In the past I've taken her to places to get her hair cut, hoping that if she got a really nice haircut it would magically look cute all the time whether she tried to mess it up or not.  So today she agreed to let me cut it and I was so excited!  Here she is right after, trying to put a bow in her hair.  I was happy that she wanted to put a bow in it instead of purposely messing it up.  Putting the bow in did mess it up, but at least it was unintentional.  Baby steps.  You can't really see the cut here, but I thought she was cute.  :)

She didn't want me to take a picture of her hair cut so I pretended I was taking pictures of other things.  :)  You can sort of see it here.

And here.  I trimmed the front a little and the back a lot.  She messed up the front, but it still looked ok.

 
Another sneaky picture from the back.  Maybe someday she'll get over being mad about me doing her hair, but at least she's letting me cut it now.  :)  What are we going to do with you, Anna?

Her hair looks cute! I can remember being a little older than Anna and messing my hair up on purpose when mom was trying to brush it. We love you guys!
