Savannah's First (real) Haircut

Most of you probably remember back when Savannah was a baldy. If you don't here is a reminder:
Savannah is a hair puller....she started pulling her hair out as she would fall asleep at night. Eventually she had no hair on top and thinning hair in the back. We ended up shaving her head to break the habit. She looked like a chemo patient for a long time!!! Last summer in finally started to really get long enough to do anything with.

So lately her hair has just been a ratty mess. I noticed that she must have started pulling the front again because the back of her hair is longer than the front sides. Mike and I decided recently that it was time for her to get a trim. Normally, I would just cut it myself but because she has curly hair, I wanted to see a professional do it first.
She has been very excited about this event all week! I have been talking to her about it because I wasn't sure how she would react in the moment (remember the dentist???). She asked me if it would hurt :)
She ended up doing GREAT! She sat real still and smiled at herself in the mirror the entire time. The stylist blended her long and short hair to frame her face and just trimmed up the back.
Go Savannah go!!! You amaze me on almost a daily basis :)
