first haircut

well, this is embarrassing.  i can't believe it's been over two months since i last posted but this one may be redemptive...it's that cute.

holden got his first haircut yesterday at a child-centric place.  it had lots of fun activities and colorful tv stands blaring cartoons...everything a young boy could want for his first experience in the barber's chair.  alas, holden wanted nothing to do with it.  maybe he's samson-esque, maybe he was tired (it was 5:30pm), maybe the cartoons on air weren't up to snuff.  i'm not sure but i do know my usually-joyful baby was clawing to get out of that chair.

so, while it wasn't met with unbridled excitement, it was a rite of passage nonetheless.  here is the documentation.

note: due to pitiful pouting, i waited until this morning to take his "after" shot.
