Cannon FINALLY had his first haircut this weekend. If it were up to me, I would have had his hair cut months ago. It was Blaine who was very hesitant to cut his hair because of the two or three curls he had at the back of his head. However, most of the time Cannon's so called "curls" were out of control and looked more like a mullet than anything else. It was for this reason alone that I finally put the hammer down. Blaine gave in and actually cut Cannon's hair himself after all the practice he had cutting the hair of missionaries on his mission a few years ago. I was pretty impressed with his hair cutting skills! Cannon looks like a new little boy from the back...I almost didn't recognize him after being used to his mullet/ratty hair look over these last few months. I wish I had before and after pictures to post on here...his hair was starting to get a little out of control. Anyway, Cannon did fairly well during his first hair snipping experience. Blaine and I have quickly learned that as long as Cannon has a piece of licorice in one hand, he will be content for as long as it takes him to finish it, which is a long time! I now have a new appreciation for red licorice.
I also wanted to post a picture of my 22nd week tummy since it has suddenly expanded over the last two weeks. I am now looking quite pregnant and love it! The 2nd trimester pregnancy look is so much better than the 1st trimester bloated look.
The last few pictures are of Cannon wearing cowboy boots. We had one of Blaine's old college roommates and his wife over for dinner this weekend, and Cannon could not get enough of Blaine's friend's boots. He insisted on stepping in and out of them (which he needed a lot of help in doing with his short baby legs) and attempting to walk around the house wearing them. It was really cute. Looks like I know what type of shoes to get him next!

My husband will not let me cut my son's hair because he thinks little boys should have long hair (little boy long not long long), but his hair is so thick and grows so quickly that we have to cut it all the time...and cutting his hair is like a mild form of torture (but a huge form of torture for me). I just want to buzz it all off! It's so easy and you can't cut it crooked from him moving haha! Not even cookie cutters can get him to sit still!
What a handsom little guy! Mike cut hair on the mission too, so he always cuts Ashton's hair. He also taught me how to cut his, which is great, because it leaves more money for me and Brayden to go to the salon!! :)
