Bella's First Hair Cut -- In the US

It was getting to the point that I could no longer see Bella's eyes. She kept rubbing and rubbing her eyes as her hair was in them and she couldn't see well. So, we decided that today was the day that we would get her bangs cut. I figured we would be lucky to just get her bangs cut as I knew she was not going to be happy.

The rest of her hair would be OK as it is. So, we went to the salon and Bella was OK while we waited. 

You might be able to tell how long her bangs had gotten in this picture -- or maybe not, as she is looking down. 

There were so many things to look at and chairs to play on. So, at first she was OK .

Then her turn came and she immediately knew that whatever was going to happen, she didn't want to be a part of it. Not at all!

She calmed down pretty quickly after she was finished and I think she looks better, and at least she can see again. She relaxed in a chair with her brother for a few minutes -- needing a little comfort.

Then she perked up and realized that it was all over and she could have a little fun. She walked around and played and talked to everyone.

Bethany got her hair cut, too. I think she liked the way hers turned out.

Later, Sarah, Caroline and Bethany went to the ice cream store for a little snack. We have not been in quite awhile since it has been so cold.

 I love this last picture of Bella. I took it a few days ago and there is just something about the look on her face that I like so much. She just looks so happy and sweet.
