All Alive

Don't worry the Hawkinsons are alive and well.
Camps are over so hopefully I will be better at keeping up :)

Time for another Hawkinson Husband Hijack :)

So a lot has happened lately...

We put our house on the market, decided to take it off the market,

bought a car for no particular reason, (except for the totally great deal part, and the big H on the front. I really love my wife!)

Got a new camera, (A Nikon D3000 see the pics below)

Had a really fun couple move in with us :), then they moved out :(

Our boys are growing so fast! Benny starts school here at home this fall after we come back from the 4 camps that we'll be at this summer.

Whew, well take a look at the pics; and let Jessie know how much you love "her" blog!

Oh yeah, Jessie got really cute highlights

Giddy is still super sweet

The "other two" are still alive... (for now)

And they all love each other a lot

When you have 3 boys...

The babys favorite toy is a gun

and stuffed animals get burned at the stake

poor Frankie he never had a chance...

Hi, I'm Gideon,

Hi, just wanted to update date everyone on Mr. Gideon.
He is now 5 months-at his 4 months appt. he was 17 lb 6 oz and 27 inches long.

He is currently loving the exersaucer

He has two bottom teeth ( don't look too hard they are not in this picture)
But this smile is always worth it

drooling and working on teeth

He found his thumb and loves to chew on it

And he loves his toes :)

Gideon continues to be such a joy to our family. He is laughing, talking and singing to us everyday. Both Ben and Asher love getting Gideon to laugh and "talk" to them. He is still sleeping about 9 hours at night-I told you he is a joy :)
He is now rolling tummy to back and back to tummy it will be too soon when he is crawling. We continue to do cloth diapers and love them and I might have finally settled on one kind=Grobaby.
At 4 months Gideon started having really dry skin, red and scaly all over his body. So I researched eczema, allergies and oil/lotion. We started using Organic Coconut oil all over Gideons dry skin and I have been dairy free for three weeks. The dry skin might be a milk allergy so if Gideon can't have milk neither can mommy-I am missing cheese :( but Gideons skin looks amazing. No more dry red skin, it has all cleared up.
Gideon continues to grow, and so does our love for this beautiful little gift from the Lord!

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Two months

We just love this boy so much he is such a joy to our family.
The days are just flying by and we are trying to savor and enjoy all the little moments with Gideon. Joe and I have realized that this boy is spoiled, he is held, rocked and picked up on every opportunity. I think we now understand how quickly they grow up so we are enjoying this baby stage as long as we can.
Gideon likes:
to eat
to sleep
to smile
to be in the Moby
and to be held
