Thane’s hair was looking rather shaggy, as Jay says, he needed either dog tags or a violin. So, despite what we had said, we gave him his first haircut today at Sweet & Sassy.

When we walked in, Jay just about made us walk out. His immediate reaction–”This place is for girls!” Well…it was rather…9 year old girl. We ended up staying after I gave him some puppy dog eyes when he started talking about the flowbee. We got the “First Haircut Special” which included certificate, lock of hair and photo.

Thane did really well sitting for the cut. He played with an airplane and watched Toy Story 2. The woman cutting his hair obviously liked kids and chatted it up with us. She even did not mind the million pics we snapped.

While we were there, there was a girl’s birthday party with 10 of her closest friends. They paraded around in glamour outfits like flappers, singing at the top of their lungs. It was a hoot, especially when I pointed out to Jay that he would soon have one of those!

We could not get a good finale shot of our handsome guy. While the hairdresser (Danielle) commented on how great he did not crying or fussing, his stoic behavior was really more of a pout, one we could not get off his face while he was in the hot seat.
