hawk's swinging without teeth

Gracie spent much of 2011 mastering the monkey bars. Spending that amount of time around kids monkey-ing around kicking their legs comes with risk. "Surprise", she was kicked square in the mouth causing both her front teeth to really loosen up. Now we've got a super cute toothless Hawk that can take on her choice of monkey bars across the Bay Area.

I had a loof toof...and now it's gone.


Here is Gracie on the monkey bars at her favorite park in Oakland. She spent a lot of time staring down these monkey bars since being a baby, hanging with help, and finally crossing one bar at a time. We're still working on skipping a bar.


Once Gracie mastered the local bars, she took to Kirk School in San Jose to take on "Grandma Bernie's" monkey bars. These were a little tricky with a downward slope, but she mastered them nonetheless.


Once Gracie's confidence built up, she then took on the "High Bars" by Auntie Anne's house in Redwood City.


We're so proud of our Gracie for accomplishing her goal. With that determination, you can & will do anything you want!
