Haircut?

Technically, Luke has already had his first haircut. He came out with a full head of hair, and he never lost it. It just grew longer and longer in the front, while it broke off in the back from him laying on his back (Back to Sleep!).

So my son, he has a reverse mullet. He's all party up front and business in the back!

It got to the point that the hair on the sides of his head was giving him wings, and generally just very goofy looking. So we opted to get our scissors out at home and give him his first haircut. Snip, snip, and we were done.

This didn't solve the problem of all the hair on TOP of his head, which has continued to grow, and is now starting to get in his eyes. I brush it to the side, I think about putting a little ponytail on top of his head...

The boy needs a haircut. And since my brother is coming to town this weekend and we've scheduled the first family portrait since I was about 13, I might have to push this issue.

What is a normal age for a first haircut? 7.5 months seems too young!
