Generally, we don't go anywhere & there is just a few Hawks & an occasional Uncle Tim hangin' at the nest. He's figured out that if he ever wants to see a Hawk, he better come over to The Nest. So to the rest of you that we haven't seen in a while...hint hint......
A sampling of what happens when Daddy & Uncle Tim are in control of the camera
Our family has also figured out that if they want to see us, chances are best if they fly by The Nest as well.
Here's a pic of a lot of Hawks hangin' at The Nest last Thanksgiving....Cheers!
Mommy went low key on Gracie's 3rd Birthday. To all the mommies out there, don't do it! Gracie is still asking me when we are going to have her real birthday party. She's 3 & 1/2 now.
Here's a video of Gracie blowing out the candles.
Gracie is 3!!! Note to all parents: 3 is apparently when kids start ignoring you, not 13!
I just had a great epiphany! I realized if I spend less time scattering bits & pieces of my life on Facebook and just focused my efforts on my blog that maybe I'll get caught up.
Here's Halloween & it wouldn't be a proper Halloween without a Sad Pumpkin, now would it?
Best Frenemies Forever hugging on Halloween... and they even traded costumes!
Oh I meant it wouldn't be a proper Halloween without a screaming fairy too......
Since it takes forever for me to write something witty, I'm going to just post a bunch of photos to bring us into the New Year. AND, yes, I realize it is April now, but I want to share photos from 2008 that I just haven't had the chance to post.
Uncle Colum's wedding from the kid's view. They "borrowed" my camera...
<--i can just imagine the kids giggling
My favorite photo
ok i lied....off to bed for now. i'll post more soon.
Oh my, it has been a while.....here are the rest of the bday postings that you all have been eagerly awaiting for the past, um, five months...
Amanda is Gracie's dear friend from daycare & now preschool. Anything Amanda likes, Gracie will soon like and we are ok with that because you'll see, Amanda is a cutie.
Grace was a tad apprehensive because Cooper had moved in next to Amanda during cake time.
Cooper & Amanda
Grace a bit concerned about the seating arrangement..
A happy birthday girl with cake.....
A happy Gracie with cake.....
Once presents came around, Gracie moved in for the kill....
well, not really. but wait?! who's birthday was this?
First up Cooper....Can you tell that this little guy has some modeling experience?
His birthday was super exciting because he has a train! We all took turns going for train rides.
Here's Gracie on the train. Not sure what she's looking at here, but boy did she love the train!
But Nora Jane was too little so she took a spin in Turner's(Cooper's little brother) car instead.
Gracie's best friend Joshua was there. She declared, "Joshua is my best friend, but I am not Joshua's best friend. Cooper is." Seems Gracie was trumped by the birthday boy. Isn't that to be expected?
Here's Josh helping *Cooper* blow out his birthday candles..
Happy Birthday Cooper! We love you even though you stole our baby girl's best friend for a few hours.
Next up, Lucas. Lucas was Gracie's original best friend. Not sure what happened, but Josh moved in and stole Gracie's heart.
Lucas' birthday party was super exciting because he had a jumpy house.
