Hudson "talking" to dad

Here's a video I took of Hudson talking and yelling at dad :) He's become quite the talker in the past couple weeks!

3 months old!






Sorry for the lack of updates. I've been trying to update for about a week but for some reason blogspot isn't letting me post pictures. So for now I will just write the update and hopefully add some new pictures soon!!

The last couple weeks have been filled with lots of fun and excitement. My little sister Missy graduated high school and we attended her graduation bbq and then her graduation a few days later. Hudson did great at both events, even though the graduation didn't start until 7 pm and he's usually in bed by 8 or 9. I am so proud of Missy, she won so many scholarships and also got her AA by participating in running start!! Next year she will be at UW (boo! lol) where I know she will do great as well!!

Other than that Hudson and I have spent a lot of time around the house since Andy's been back to work. I feel like he sleeps the day away but I love all the time I get to spend with him, it is so worth the extra time I took off work! Sunday was Father's Day and we hosted a bbq at our house. My mom, Dean, Steve, Nancy, Kenny, Todd and the kids, Dad, Danielle and Grandma Patty all joined us. We had some tasty food and a great time catching up with everyone..even if the rain dampered the plans of an outdoor bbq! I didn't do much for Andy's 1st Father's Day except make him a card with a picture of him and Hudson on the front and a travel coffee mug with Hudson's pictures on it. His big present will be getting a new I-phone once I get back to work again :)

This week has been pretty laid back, Hudson and I went over to Keren's on Monday in an attempt to take Hudsons 3 month pictures. We got a few but then he got tired and cranky and wasn't cooperating...I'm hoping she got a couple that turned out good though!!

I can't believe my baby is 3 months old already! Time has FLOWN by. He's learning and growing so much every day. He hit a big milestone today....he rolled over for the first time!!! We were having 'tummy time' on the floor and he was holding his chest up really well, then he started rocking and suddenly just rolled over!! I was so shocked :) I pulled out the video camera and tried to get him to do it again, but he was not having it! So hopefully soon I will get him on video rolling over :)

Back to reality (for Andy at least!)...



I can't believe how fast time is going by and how big my baby is getting already! The past couple weeks have flown by as we've stayed pretty busy. The week before this last one was Andy's last week at home. We tried to enjoy it as much as possible but the rainy weather made it hard for us to find much to do for free or cheap other than hang out around the house most of the time. It was a nice relaxing week for us as a family and Andy got some daddy/son time in :)

Monday Andy went back to work and I got my first dose of life as a Stay-at-home-mom. Honestly it was much harder without Andy here than I expected it to be! But, by the end of the week I was pretty used to doing everything on my own and expecting days where there was no time to shower or do much but tend to Hudson until later in the afternoon/evening! We didn't do too much during the week but we did make it up to Bothell for another play date with Joy and Hayden. As usual we had a great time visiting and comparing baby stories and the boys actually stayed awake long enough to play on the activity mat together and look around. It was so cute watching as Hudson would reach over and grab at Hayden and just look at him! I can't wait until they start interacting more..it's going to be so much fun watching them grow up together.



Yesterday was another busy day. Andy had to work so Hudson and I got ready and headed down to my dad's house for Missy's graduation party. All my Aunts, Uncles and cousins made it as well as Danielle and Steve and some of Missy's best friends :) It was great to see everyone again and they were all excited to see Hudson and how much he has grown in the past month and a half since they saw him last. After the BBQ we headed home to re-pack the diaper bag and head over to Keren and Steve's for a tasty BBQ and a fun game night with them and their friends Angela and Chris. We learned a new game and had a lot of good laughs! We're looking forward to some more fun nights with them hopefully in the near future!

Today is Sunday and Andy's only day off again until next Sunday so after the yardwork is done we're going to go for a run (I forgot to mention I registered for my first 5k that takes place on July 4th!) then get out and soak up some more of this sunshine!! (I will post more pictures once I get them uploaded from my camera)
