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.
