Bear at the barber shop

Bear has been getting hair cuts since he was a baby, every time we mention the words hair cut he flips out! He hates it! He cries and cries the entire time! However today, we reached a milestone!! Bear had a big boy hair cut and he didn't cry!! He sat still for the most part and engaged in conversation. He still hated the sound of the clippers close to his ears but all in all he did AMAZING!! Good jod son!!
