3rd grader???

looking sassy, Jbird. I can't believe it's been so long on Silverado Street. Our "temporary" first home. haa!! Seems like just yesterday was her first day in kindergarten. I just love how Jadyn starts the year with a mexican tan. So happy to be at Carrillo School again this year... go Peacocks.. I mean Colts. (the campus is full of real, roaming peacocks... so cool.) J wore a peacock feather headband for her first day... great outfit. (Thanks Jdawg for the skirt-couragement)

Sweet

Family dinner for C's big #2!
** thanks for the cake idea, Leah and Brody!
The Heit "twins".... Who invited Elmo?

A Heit favorite treat breakfast...

VG's Donuts.. a Cardiff institution. Jadyn, and of course Campbell's favorite treat. He just couldn't decide.. Cookie monster cake, cupcake, cookie... I can't deny my own sweet tooth, either. Who doesn't get excited about fried, sugary dough?

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, CAMPBELL!


WOW!! Two, already?? Where did it all go?.. I think the rug shrank?, no, really.

Two year bio for C.G.H:
Weighs in around 23lb. I don't know how he only gained like 3 lb in one year because he's grown a lot taller and a lot more hair and teeth. Talking: more and more everyday... loves Jadyn, whose name has morphed into GIA. We love the Italian version. He's a real renaissance man, our Campbell. He takes roll call where ever we are...Momma, Daddy, Nana, Bop-bop, TEE (Townsend), etc.

A finicky eater, he does love popsicles, mexican, chinese and italian (ok, beans and rice, chow mein noodles and pizza)..in addition to Pirate's booty, goldfish and cheerios.. I'm predicting the next Anthony Bourdain or Tyler Florence?

He works very hard at his latest masterpieces, coloring all over the house. So nice. I'm really glad we didn't put too much art up.. would ruin our works-in-progress mural project we've got going on.

Motorcycles, trucks, ambulances and trains are HUGE. "WHOAAAAAAAAH!!" he shouts, each time we pass something of that boyish nature. Just born in them, I guess. Along for a hatred of Target... lots of bribing takes place in order to get him to sit in the cart anywhere anymore.

Anything shaped like or resembling a surfboard (he's crazy for the water and waves.. or the pool will do) or skateboard also gets a loud shout-out from Campbell. He is obsessed with wheels... bikes are cool, too... and helmets of any kind.. oh and shoes. He prefers 'hip hops' (flip flops) and high heels...

He still loves TV (my son). Elmo rules, seconded by Choo-choo (Thomas the train) and Boo-coo (Blue's Clues) lately.... also enjoys baseball, basketball and football with dad... and his security blanket that he has recently named "beebee or mee mee".

Perhaps he will be a DJ with his love for music, drums and dancing. He can really cut a rug and jump around....jump,jump around.

I really can't believe how quickly time has flown. Of course I have hopes and dreams for both of these kids, but I really just want us all to live for the moment, everyday. Soak it all in and enjoy it. Everyday that I can get a little cuddle where Campbell's whole head fits into the crook of my neck I love it.. and those little dimples in his fingers I know will soon be big strong hands.. I just want to hold on.

We love you, little man. You are a careful, sensitive, yet dramatic little guy. I want to bottle up your belly laugh and listen to it for the rest of my life.

Champion!




A real nail-biter finish for the Spurs! Jadyn had a blast playing with the boys this season and finished the season having scored 4 points with countless assists (clapping from the bench counts, right?) and a few thoughts of a rebound. Her biggest fan wore his headband in her honor for the finals. Sort of looked like a head-wound.
