Haircuts.....and suckers

It's been a big week for us.  Time to share Wednesday's events with everyone.

Last night, we took Lincoln for his very first haircut.  He was WAY overdue. 
Here is the before look...

He was such a good boy.  We offered him a sucker originally, but he hadn't ever had a sucker, so he didn't want it.  He put up a bit of a fight, but a spray bottle and 2 combs later (one for each hand), and he was distracted.  He really was very good through the whole thing, and he looks so grown up now!  Check him out!

We weren't planning on getting Jackson's cut, but Miss Shawna thought he needed the back trimmed up a bit, so she just cleaned up his collar.  Jackson was also very good (although he kept a close eye on what Shawna was doing).

Both boys were so good.  I offered Jackson the sucker we originally picked out for Lincoln, and he took a lick right away.  The smile on his face said it all - and he spent the next 10 minutes trying to bite the sucker off the stick.  Once Jackson had a sucker, then Lincoln thought he might try it too.  It was a small reward for being so good, and their first sucker experience!  Jackson had strawberry, and Lincoln had cherry.  They both loved them!  Here is a picture of the two of them enjoying their treats!
