Rub-a-dub-dub in the....sink??

I am starting to like my baths a little bit more now. Mom had been putting me in my own bathtub inside the big tub, but that was a little much for me so we tried the sink again and it felt much safer. And I thought, if my rubber ducky can do it, then so can I! I almost wanted to crack a smile, but lets not get too out of hand. Baby steps! I dread the day I get too big for the sink, and I'm afraid its right around the corner!

I love Wednesdays!!

Wednesdays are both me and Mom's favorite days because we go to Aunt Sheri and Uncle Arnie's for a homemade meal! Lots of people come; Daddy, Grandma, Vicky, Maddi, Logan, and Hunter. I'm really looking forward to when I actually get to eat the food! Mom says its delicious! Me and Hunter were playing on the floor and I did my famous trick, "Got your nose!". I think its funny, but I might be the only one! Thats me and..........I think thats my Mom in those glasses?? She blames losing her perfect eye sight on me. Mom and Dad carved those beautiful pumpkins. They'll look really good all lit up on Halloween night.

HELP!!! Girls all around me!!!

My cousin Sidney was baptized on Sunday and Mommy and Daddy are her Godparents. I spent the day with a lot of girls!!!! You'll see the only boy in any of these pictures is my Daddy, and he ventured down to the basement with the rest of the boys shortly after. Oh yea, Zevlen was there too but all he did was sleep. Come on guys, we're supposed to stick together! Maddi and me played in Regan and Sidney's kitchen and I had a blast! I want one really bad but my Daddy says "Boys don't play in kitchens!". Little does he know me and Mom already added it to my Christmas list (yea, I know it'll be a couple years before I can actually play in it). We even found one with an outdoor grill, now how manly is that!!! I also played with my penguin. That thing makes me laugh so loud!!! I get to hit, punch, and kick it! The perfect toy for a boy!

Cozy.....

So its gotten even colder than the last time Mom and me went outside!!! I am warm and cozy in my carseat cover!! And Mom says this face is the cutest ever!!

Times at home

These are just a few pics of me hanging out at home with Mom. We steal Daddy's change when he's not looking and put it in my piggy bank. He usually chases us into my room but we're faster and get the money in the bank before he catches us! Its a fun game! We always say, "finders keepers, losers weepers"! Mom took a picture of my butt because there was a frog on it. She's so weird sometimes! I tried riding my rocking lion from Maddi but I'm a little wobbly yet. I'll work on it though. Mom puts me in my pack n' play during the day for a nap, but little does she know, as soon as she puts me down, I open my eyes and start playing. Naps are for babies, and I'm a big boy!!! Last time I wasn't sneaky enough and I accidentally hit my rainforest toy and it started playing......busted!!!! Whoops! I better learn more about this before I start sneaking out of the house or I'll be in big trouble!

Chilly days

Brrrrr.....me and Mom had to leave the warm house for supper and Sheri's and it was freezing and raining!!! I got all bundled up and Mom even started the car before we left so it wouldn't be quite so cold. Thankfully, I am a very warm blooded boy, this cold weather doesn't even phase me! I'm tough!

Oh, what a vacation I had......

I went on another mini-vacation to Logan's volleyball tournament in St. Cloud. I loved the first day because I got to watch volleyball all day long, but the second day we shopped til we dropped, and I mean literally! I'm happy at first because my Uncle Lon gave me my first Snickers bar!! But my glory was short lived, my mom took it away from me and scolded Uncle Lon (she was laughing though, and took this picture so he wasn't in big trouble). Then I had a good conversation with Grandma, she loves hearing my stories. The next day me and Mommy matched in Adidas outfits! How cute are we!!?!? Maddi put me in the Elmo ride at Toys R Us, but from there we went to the mall and I was out numbered by women one a mission!!! By the end of the night I had a headache!! I was pooped out and slept the whole way home. Next time I think I want my Daddy to come with us! I could have used another boy with me!

More Fall Pics

Me, Mom, and Dad went to Aunt Meredith's house to have our picture taken by a photographer. It was such a nice day that even the bugs wanted to come out to play! Some of them bit me! Ouch! That kind of made me crabby, but I got a few smiles in before that!

Mama's Boys

Written by Mommy

My two boys were cuddling so sweet on the couch and the next thing I knew, they had both fallen asleep. Now for Daddy, this was nothing new, but watching Daddy and his son all snuggled up was so precious!! And that was the longest nap Hudson has had in a long time. Maybe in his Daddy's arms is just where he needs to be!

Jumpie!!

I got to try out my jumpie for the first time but I haven't really gotten the hang of it yet. Grandma and Mom kept yelling, "Jump Hudson, Jump!!!" But I just laughed at them because they sounded so silly. The only thing I was able to do so far was spin around a little bit, that was fun too! Plus, I might be a tad bit too little yet because Grandma had to stuff 4 blankets in my seat. Mom had a hard time getting me out of it! She told me we'll try everyday until I get the hang of it. She says I'll love it when I can finally jump around!

My first ride!

Hey, look at me way up here!!!!!!! I'm bigger than everyone when I'm on Daddy's shoulders!!!

More fun times with Maddi

I spent another evening with Maddi, which means I never know what's ahead for me! She thinks I'm such a big boy, and put me right next to her in the booth at the restaurant. Who needs a high chair? I just wish I could eat the food she was eating! She also gave me a present which I was so excited to open!! And there we're at the volleyball game. I have that frightened look on my face because again, I never know what's next!

Mommy and her babies

My puppy doesn't usually like to lay by me so Mom was so happy Dad caught this on camera! I was fast asleep, so I wasn't kicking Bella like I usually do, therefore she was able to stand my company.

Go Vikes!

Mom and Dad took me to Uncle Lon and Aunt Ditty's to watch Monday Night Football. The Vikings even won, however I couldn't keep my eyes open long enough to watch the whole game. But I am pretty sure I made it longer than my Daddy who fell asleep before halftime! What a party pooper he is! I could teach him a thing or two about staying awake!

Freezy, freezy

I went to my first parade this weekend. It was just the New Ulm High School Homecoming parade, but still exciting! I had to get bundled up because it was chilly outside. You can't really see it, but my hat has skulls on it! So cute! From my Grandma (of course!). I got to see my cousin Logie in the parade. She threw me a pom-pom. I used it to cheer for her at her volleyball games over the weekend. Kids threw me lots of candy too, but Mom says I have to wait until I get some teeth to eat it. Apparently she isn't aware that by then, the candy will be old so I'm doing my best to push out a tooth now! I am showing lots of potential; constantly drooling, sucking on everything that gets close to my mouth, rosey red cheeks....there just has to be one sprouting in there somewhere!

Sleepy Baby

I like sleeping in the weirdest places, but its where I'm most comfy! Grandma plays "horsey" me and its one of my favorite things to do! It gets me to stop crying every time! But it also wears me out! I actually fell asleep while galloping on Grandma's horse! I also prefer Mama's bed, or in this case, the couch, over my own crib! Its much more squishy! And Mom is usually laying beside me and I love cuddling with her!

Happy Fall!!

Since its such a nice day, Mom and I took advantage and got some cute pictures outside by the pumpkins! I'm only 3 months, but I can already sit up pretty good, with a little help from a pumpkin or two. I think Mom enjoyed this more than I did, she was laughing so hard at me she got tears in her eyes! Its almost silly how cute she thinks I am! When I was born, everyone said I looked just like my Daddy, but now as I'm growing, people are starting to say I look more and more like my Mommy. I must be the perfect mix!

Me and Aunt Sheri

"My Aunt Loves Me". Well, its actually my Great Aunt Sheri that loves me and gave me this shirt! Thank you!!! I love you too!

Could you hold this please?

Mom had so much stuff to carry out to the car, plus our puppy Bella, and ME, so she asked if I could help her by holding onto this box. I did a really good job and didn't let it fall! I'm Mama's big helper!
