::sandy haircut::

We don't document every single haircut because not only would that be boring but it would also be silly.

However, a haircut like this one does deserve some attention.

Sandy had been cultivating the Luke Skywalker hair for quite a long long time.  He was very proud of it, and refused to even think of cutting it for a long long time.

Untitled

As it got longer and bushier though, I had to insist on grooming it more often.  And I think maybe Sandy inherited a soft and tender head from his parternal grandmother.  He can't STAND having his hair brushed if it's in the slightest bit tangly.

So we came to a decision between the two of us.  It was time for the long locks to go.  So we went to see Patrick.  Sandy was pretty stoic about the haircut, although he did keep saying "I sure hope we're almost done."

Untitled

And he may not actually trust Patrick at all, when it comes down to it.  But anyway, it's done, and the new haircut is cute and short and easy and he's delighted that we don't really have to do anything to it at all.

Untitled

But I have to say he does look like a different kid, and that's always a little fun but also a little sad at the same time.

And then here are the goofballs.  Such silly people.

We went to see Zootopia together right after hte haircute and it was super fun.  I like these littles.

On Weds I had to take the car down to the dealership in Albuquerque for some servicing.  Sandy got to come with me.  He's getting some special treatment as he tries to recover from his tonsillectomy.

We went to Target (of course, when don't we go to Target?).  He really wanted a hot dog, but it was breakfast time.

Untitled

I offered him a slushy, but he turned it down.  It's insane.  He's been all treated out almost.  It blows my mind a little bit.  ANYWAY, we walked over to the cafe so I could get him a hotdog.  That's when we spied these delicious cinnamon pretzels.  He told me later that he saw them and thought they were doughnuts.  "So weird!" he said, "Who eats doughnuts for breakfast?!"

Untitled

But really Sandy, the real question is who eats hot dogs for breakfast?

We got home in time to pick up Max from school, and the car is all refreshed, so it was a succesful trip.

::new building update::

These aren't even good photos, frustratingly, but they're the best I could do when I was driving down the road!  Or maybe I think Max took these for me?  Same problem though--questionable quality.

The walls and ceilings and everything are all up!  They put the stucco on the outside of the building which is exciting!  The scaffolding is up there because that big wall that sticks out there is going to be painted an exciting bright orange.

It's so crazy to see the building going up, to realize how humongous it is, and also realize what a frighteningly huge project it is!  Yikes!

We're excited because the location is awesome and super visible.  It should be great for marketing.  And the building is going to be so fun looking.

I'll try to get a few more photos next week, and maybe some interior photos!!
