We present a multi-wavelength study of two new transitional disks in the Taurus star forming region. It is thought that when planets form in young disks, they clear out material in the disk and leave behind signatures in the form of holes, thus it is important that we constrain the parameters of these disks in order to develop a deeper understanding of planetary evolution. Here we model the spectral energy distributions (SEDs) of these disks. For these two objects (V410 X-ray 2 and IRAS04125+2902) we also present high resolution SMA images. We obtained estimates of the hole sizes of these two disks through the use of the models and the images. Our results are show that for IRAS04125+2902 the most likely cause of the hole is planetary formation but the possibility of a close stellar companion cannot be ruled out. For V410 X-ray 2, our results show that the hole could be caused by either the formation of planets or by the effects of photoevaporation.
