We decided today was good because Michael would already be home with the little guy and we both wanted to be there for the cut. So after I got home we headed to the Cookie Cutters at 116th and Olio. Upon entering the building I was given a hostile greeting. I said I was looking to get my 1 year old's haircut. The woman looked up at me (for the first time) and said she was booked until 7. That would have been fine, except her tone was down right bitchy! I turned to the door just as Michael was bringing Dylan in. I hustled toward them shaking my head. I was too upset to speak. I finally told them she was booked all night and Michael asked if we wanted to go in and make an appointment. I told him I didn't want someone like that anywhere near my child. We had a few errands to run, so we decided to try another location...96th near Lantern Road.
Upon walking into the second location I was warmly greeted by 2 ladies. I explained that I wanted my son's first haircut and could make an appointment, but they were available right away. Miss Stacy, Dylan's stylist, let us pick out a movie and then led us to a cute little cop peddle car. Dylan was so mesmerized by everything I don't know that he even watched the Elmo's World that was in. He was all smiles the WHOLE time and Stacy just cooed all over him. They took his picture, saved us a lock of hair in a tiny baggie, and gave us a certificate. It was a great experience. My little guy is growing fast!
I took a LOT of pictures, but I won't post all of them here. :)
