Oh, Wow!

I just realized that I never put up the first day of school pics. And that I hadn't updated for over a week.... My apologies. I have my first lead trial on Friday, so it has been Code Red around here....

We will get back to regular posting this weekend! You can look forward to dance lessons starting again, more tae kwon do and all around silliness.

Have a great week.

Big news on Wednesday...

Babyhawk starts preschool on Wednesday at public school... Back to school shopping has been completed - her new look this year is very cute...

Check back on Wednesday evening for photos of the drop off....

I can't believe she is getting so big! Our other girl is getting big as well so Mamahawk is slowing down tremendously (or at least trying to)... Next appointment for Tinyhawk is Wednesday as well so we will have an update for her too!

Have a good week!

"ICE!"

The big news of this week is that Babyhawk has started Taekwondo classes. She loves it and practices quite frequently at home - but has caught on to the rules of only kicking and punching the air or Papahawk's target hands. She is very very serious during class and doesn't crack a smile.

Should be excellent therapy and we have already seen her kick with her right foot, which is a challenge for her. Plus she gets to scream "ICE!" (or something that sounds like that) each time she kicks or punches. No photos/videos allowed in the dojo so here is a shot from outside and then in the bathroom :)!

We are going to ask permission to film for use with her therapist and we will, of course, share with you here if they let us.

Have a good week!

A new look!

We first want to welcome Baby A - who was born to good friends Kristie and Brendan on July 20th. He is a beautiful little boy and so calm and content! We parents are already discussing a possible arranged marriage with Tinyhawk - he is one handsome guy:

After Babyhawk's little hair trim didn't do much to help the crazy hair situation, we set off this weekend to get a for real hair cut. She modeled her new head band and a pony tail on our way out the door (I don't know why her model face looks similar to a fish, but I like it!):

... and the new 'do! She was good for the lady and it turned out so cute, although it won't look like this everyday as I will not use product and blow dry her hair with a round brush (that would make for some long mornings!!). But it definitely solved the problem we were having and she loves it!:

again, the "model" face:

Papahawk and Babyhawk have had a blast playing some bug game on his iPhone. In fact, I hear them in the living room designing a bug right now...:

This is more what her hair will look like when mom is the hairdresser:

Funny faces!:

We finished the girls' room - adding all the baby stuff and also adding some decorating touches... It is all ready for when Tinyhawk arrives. Babyhawk starts big kid school in a couple of weeks, so we are trying to prepare for that right now, as well as get acquainted with a new physical therapist - as our loved Laurie moved to the "ocean" as Babyhawk puts it....

Have a great week everyone!
