Mother's Day fun!

Babyhawk and I had such a great Mother's Day! A couple of trips to Target (our fave), some strawberry cupcakes/cakes and some snuggling:

Poor Sinatra is one of her favorite "stuffed" animals these days:

And we had to get new rainboots so she, of course, had to try them out:

Check out photos of our bowling event at: http://www.kypediatricstroke.blogspot.com/

We raised over $10,000.00 for CHASA (http://www.chasa.org/) and had a great time doing it. I will update with more pictures when they are collected from the other "photographers" that were there....

Have a great week and check back soon.... we fnd out if Tinyhawk is a he or she tomorrow morning!

Remember: May is Pediatric Stroke Awareness Month. Spread the word.

Wear your PURPLE this week!

It is paint the week PURPLE for pediatric stroke. - wear it and tell others about these amazing kids! Purple is not a color I have a lot of in the wardrobe, but I am digging around!

We are pretty much ready to go for bowling this Friday! The final glitter ribbons were put on the thank you notes:

And the 185 t-shirts were folded with care:


Hope to see you all there! Have a great PURPLE week!

PS - We will find out if Tinyhawk will be playing for the University of Kansas men's or women's basketball team next Monday!

Random iPhone photos...

Babyhawk loves "being tall" and papahawk doesn't mind helping her out...

Babyhawk is way into fashion these days. She picks out her shirt everyday and this is one of her favorites:

We are preparing for bowling in less than two weeks! Hope to see a lot of you there!

Jump Jump!

It was another birthday party weekend and Babyhawk got to do one of her favorite things... jump!:

And Babyhawk has picked up another sport... golf:

Watch out!!


Have a great week!

Wild Weekend!

We had another gorgeous weekend, so we spent most of the time outside. Babyhawk did some chores:

Practiced her ABCs/Baa baa black sheep with cardio:

... and tried out for Papahawk's tackle football team:

And then it was another adventure at the dinner table. General silliness and wishing her Grandpa a happy birthday:

She was cracking herself up. Who knew sneezing could be so funny?!?:

And finally, some sort of American Idol try out:

Our bowling event has been a smashing success! We have 37 teams coming out to bowl! Only three spots left, so if you were wanting to bowl and haven't registered yet, do it very very soon! www.firstgiving.com/kykidshavestrokes

Spring has sprung!

Babyhawk loved Easter this year! Babyhawk was especially good so the Easter bunny brought her plenty of candy and a bike! (Its actually a trike, but she insists on calling it a bike...):

We tried the bike out:

Presley is the best for what he puts up with!:

After church we headed over to Hubie and Jen's for another Egg Hunt, some great food and good fun. Babyhawk was pleased with her rewards from the hunt:

Her and the kiddos J and J!:
Some silliness thanks to Hubie:
Have a great week everyone! I hope it as beautiful where you are at as it is here...

Easter post coming....

I promise I will get back into the Sunday night posting swing. Papahawk has been studying like a mad man, which takes up some computer time - I have been super swamped at work - and Babyhawk has yet to master blogging (although I think she would really enjoy it!).

I'll get the photos and video up here tonight - even if I have to stay up all night!

Have a great week everyone!
