Jacob's 1st Haircut

Today we took Jacob to Rote's Hairstyling to get his 1st haircut. Rote's is owned by a really really special person. My Grandpa! In fact barbering is a family affair. My Grandma and Grandpa Rote were barbers together and my Mom and Uncle Bob worked with them. I spent a lot of time when I was little at the shop. I loved getting sticks of gum from the register counter, and quarters for the M&M machine. My Grandma and I would walk down to the 5 and dime store while my Grandpa cut hair and when we got back it would be Grandpa's lunch time, so they would take me to Hardees. My Grandma also would set up a fake head and let me "do" her hair. I would perm it and cut it...you should see this poor lady now. Her hair is like 1cm long. Lots and lots of great memories from Rote's Hairstyling, and I was so happy my Grandpa was able to do Jacob's first cut. I know my Grandma was watching the whole time and loving every minute of it. Here are a ton of pictures because like always I took a ton and loved them all! He looks so big and handsome!

Here is a great picture of my Grandma, Grandpa, Mom and Uncle when they were all working together!

Here they are today! We all sure miss Grandma.

And here he is now! He sat so good, and the cut looks great! What a big boy we have!!!
