Hawkes has matured in our absence from posting


This is what Hawkes looked like from our last blog post.  A lot has changed since that post so long, long ago.  In the meantime Hawkes has developed quite the personality and has matured a great deal.


He went through puberty remarkable early and decided to grow a mustache.


He also decided that he wanted to visit lagoon dressed like a hipster and sport his first ponytail.  (Funny thing is, he look more like a boy with his ponytail than he does without it).



Hopefully he grows out of this pesky teenage punk kid phase without any tattoos or ear piercings, but at this point all we can do is cross our fingers.

Monday when I put together Landon's birthday post, I realized there were no recent pictures of me and Landon together. I guess once you have a baby, someone is always holding it and the other one is taking the photo. So I looked through some of our older photos and found some good memories. Below is proof if our kids ever look back at this that we were once young and in love.

Family Pictures

We certainly love how our little family has grown and couldn't imagine our life without Hawkes, but looking at these older pictures makes me miss when it was just us. Looks like it's time to leave Hawkes with Grandma and Grandpa and finally have a little couples vacation.
