Blog 411

This blog was created for our friends and family who don't get to see us -- well, Jonathan and Elise, really -- as often as they'd like. I'm trying to keep you all updated on their milestones and their day-to-day activities. I also hope this will serve as sort of a journal for them as well, something for them to read when they are older that chronologues their lives and adventures. When I can, I'll post pictures and maybe even videos to help bridge the distance.

This blog is Part 2 of the Life of the Hardwicks. This edition will focus on our new lives in Atlanta, GA, that began in July 2013.

2013_08_13 Tuesday

We got 5 minutes earlier today than normal, but somehow ended up at the bus stop at the same time as usual. I think we hit the tipping point of getting up TOO bloomin' early. Poor Jonathan was pretty tired; he's trying so hard, but it's just too early for the poor guy. I told him that he could rest/nap after school today if he was still tired. I really hope that by the end of this week the school district figures out this busing sitch and makes it just a bit more Hardwick-friendly.

Elise has show-and-tell: Texture this morning. She brought in her purple feather boa, which seemed to be a big success. She got a nice strawberry on the back of her leg from the slide, but she apparently shook it off fairly quickly!

And, I volunteered at school for an hour or so to help Teacher get organized, basically just filing spelling words/tests for her, but it was nice to have a brief convo with her as well.

Uncle Kevin is in town for work and had dinner with us tonight! yippee!! Jonathan and Elise were all over him. It was neat to see no hesitation at all with either of them (that reminds me that I need to update Jonathan's family photo collage (and create one for Elise); there are lots of new folks to be added). We took him out or froyo afterward, and then the dads grabbed a beer together. Assuming all goes well at his training, he'll be back tomorrow too.
