Goldilocks and the #4 Clippers

The little one's hair has grown and grown and grown out of control.  Although, his lovely gold-colored locks contained much potential for post-bath fun, they never seemed to stay in place.  Daddy declared that a haircut was in order and Christmas Eve was the big day.

Here come the #4 clippers!

Post haircut.  

We saved the cut locks for a Christmas ornament and posterity.  I didn't cry but was sad to see his baby hair go.  It is silly to be sad over hair but now I do understand a little more how there is great joy with a little hurt watching the little ones grow.
