My name is Scott T. Holland. I'm a newspaper columnist-editor-designer, a self-published author and a marketing-sales-Web-whatever else guy for my parents' family business, now living in Gurnee, Ill. The site is about my life, which includes a beautiful wife, our four young sons... plus way too much time watching the Cubs and bad television. That said, if you don't find me interesting, this blog will likely bore you to tears.

Charlie's "first" trip to the pool
On June 18, we took our first trip to the pool of the summer. And though Charlie came with nearly every visit last summer, he almost always spent his time on the deck, sleeping on one of us or simply being carried around and scoping everything out from a safe perch.
Not this year.
Now he's got a swim diaper, trunks, a swim shirt, water shoes (after some unfortunate slipping) and the desire to explore. Here are some photos and a video of his real first trip to the local aquatic center. Notice how long it took for him to remove his fingers form his mouth and get fully in to the experience. We've been several times since, and Charlie enjoys it more with each visit.
