Hawkes and Madi-Georgia Trip

Next up on our agenda was Daddy moving to Pittsburgh. We thought we were going to have to make the long drive with him, but Rob offered to help Landon drive out and then fly home. That left me and Hawkes able to shorten the trip a little and fly. It was a little bittersweet tough. I was so glad to not have to drive with the little man, but it was sad to say bye to Landon for a whole two weeks. We wanted to give him some time to get settled into the new place and job before we kept him up all night by being there. So I spent an extra week in Utah finishing up some small details and hanging out with family and friends. And surprised my family with a trip to Georgia for the second week. My dad helped me keep it a secret and surprise my mom and sisters. My Mom and Madi were pretty surprised to find a stranger in their bed at midnight but were so excited to see us both. It was a very long day flying with Hawkes all by myself, but he did pretty good and didn't have any major meltdowns. It was so nice to be home and see my family and all my friends! Hawkes especially loved getting to hang out with Madi. (My suspicion is that he liked her so much because she looks like his mama) She was so good with him and he loved when she sang to him. Below are some photos of their time together. 

He was always so excited to see Madi when she got home from school or soccer practice. She learned quick and went straight to the bathroom to wash up so she could get her hands on him.

I was even a little jealous of how much he liked her. This is them cuddling, which never happens. The kid won't even let me hold him like this.

We even had a special Hawkes/Madi photo shoot. He loved it!

Madi even got him to laugh multiple times. This was a huge accomplishment seeing as I'm the only other person who has done it and it was only a few times. I got a video of it, but can't get it to upload. I will post it as soon as I can. We miss you pretty lady and can't wait for you to come visit!
