Andrew's First Haircut

It was time.

See how upset he is about having shaggy hair?


From the back...


Side view...


In the chair w/Ms. Sarah:


He sat like an angel the whole time!


He looks a little "Children-of-the-Corn"-esque here. Good thing he has brown eyes.


"I don't know about this"


I don't think this looks like him at all! All his hair is being pulled up, and Ms. Sarah is cutting the top.


My favorite:


Mess up his hair, and he will cut you.


Andrew's fresh new 'do:


From the side...


We definitely recommend Sarah at J. Thomas & Co. (Jacksonville NC)! She was awesome and patient with both of us. I'll probably make an appointment with her for myself!

Tryon Palace

Gramma Rosie visited us over the 4th of July long holiday! On the 5th of July we trekked down to the Tryon Palace in New Bern, NC. Don't ask me anything about Mr. Tryon or even if there was a Mr. Tryon because I have no idea.

What I do know is that there are gardens and Andrew had never been there before. The combination of the two is as good of a reason as any to go! So, we went...






See the fountain in the middle?


Yeah, Andrew did too:

But his Momma stopped him before he could get in!

This one reminds me of the Wizard of Oz:


Look!


Team Holt

4th of July

This is the SportsCenter highlight-style version of the events of the 4th.

For the 4th of July, Team Holt walked to a neighbor's house/backyard for a BBQ.

There was a pool...


and someone mentioned that Andrew looked like a little surfer dude. As luck would have it, there was also a surf board...


and so Andrew was a little Surfer Dude!


There was also a game of croquet...


Andrew is the little guy in the red shirt and blue/red plaid shorts. He had changed out of his wet pool attire and into his 4th of July outfit. Which, of course, I didn't take any pictures of.
