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.

2015_07_30 Thursday

Well, we have had a terrific summer. The kids have been at a local park for the entire time, having pool time and outdoor/science-y adventures. Camp ends tomorrow, so they'll have a few days of brain mush. And, now we are gearing back up for school to start next week!! Starting on Monday, we'll get alarm clocks set for the right time and do some dry runs of the morning routine. We got our teacher assignments this week, so the kids are pretty excited.

Also, I just saw this amazing clip  on one of my favorite sites, and it gave me a little needed perspective.

As the new PTO co-president, I'm a bit frantic, but it's all manageable. Tonight is our first big event: Parents of New Students Orientation. That said, it's not our event, so we're just supporting...making it a wee bit less stressful. But, this is the start to a few weeks in absolute insanity.

Elise is about to loose tooth #2. Jonathan just had his #8 doctor's appointment, where he learned that he shouldn't have ANY non-school screen time on school nights! I love that...we'll see how that works.
