Happy Five Months!

Elaine is five months old today, and she celebrated with her first haircut. Yes, we gave her a haircut. While most of her newborn hair has fallen out and is slowly being replaced with blond strands, she did keep a fringe of the dark stuff at the base of her head. This has been driving Mark absolutely nuts, especially as it continued to grow at a much faster pace than the hair on the rest of her head and, if I'm honest, was starting to have the appearance of a baby mullet. I was afraid we would end up making it look even worse if we tried to cut it, but I have to say Mark did a great job and it really does look better. She still has the strip of dark hair, so it will be interesting to see how that plays out with the blond hair coming in, but at least for now it no longer reaches over her collar. No more Kentucky Waterfall for Lainey!
