To cut or not to cut?

My 2.5yr old sons hair that is. I have been battling this for quite some time now. I personally love his long blonde hair. Unfortunately my parents hate it and I have to constantly battle it out with them. We live in FL and it fits his little personality. My other son couldn't pull off the long hair so we keep his short. But my youngest is just the perfect candidate for this long blonde hair surfer look. Recently though I've been confronted by strangers at the store telling me how cute my little girl it?! Err....ummm...he's in all blue obvious boy clothing with a blue paci in his mouth(yeah yeah I know) he looks nothing like a little girl. So other people and their stupid obnoxious mouths have been making me think twice about cutting it. So finally I just said "F-it" it's just hair it'll grow back. Let's cut it and see how it goes. If I don't like it we'll just grow it back out. As much as I love him with short hair and how grown up it makes him look. I miss my long haired surfer baby. Either way though, he's a little cutie. Here are before and after pics of my youngest!!!

This is him before. It was getting to that awkward length but I still loved it.

And here my little stud is now!! He looks so much older. The hawk only lasted that day he doesn't like it so he just wears it short with no style. How adorable!!!
