Saturday morning…

The problem with waking up at 7 AM on Saturday morning….

all by myself

That’s Hudson newest phrase.  He wants to buckle in his car seat “all by myself”, walk up and down the stairs “all by myself”, put on his sunglasses “all by myself” and even try to put on his shoes “all by myself”. 

Some other funny things he has said lately:

He has taken to calling me “honey” now instead of mom!  That is what Jamie always calls me and a few times lately Hudson has been in another part of the house and I hear him yell “HONEY.” 

He has gotten pretty good at talking on the phone now and likes to call people.  Today he called aunt Christin and helped Daddy play an April Fools joke on her.   When she answered the phone he said “April Fools!”. 

Yesterday he said the sun was too bright and he needed his sunglasses.  Jamie asked him where they were and Hudson said “in my purse.”

Getting into the bath the other night I asked him if the water was too hot – he replied “ no, it’s nice and dry.”

And last night he pottied in his potty chair again – standing up!  Oh boy!!  Need to work on his aim a little!

This week I have noticed he is starting to get really LOUD.  I think he likes to hear his voice and he has been doing a lot more yelling and noise making than usual.  Turning out more and more like his daddy every day!

strawberries

I am not the only one that is happy that springtime means yummy fresh, ripe fruit again – especially strawberries!  Hudson has been devouring strawberries the last few weeks – but apparently he can’t even compete with Callista!

Evidently two strawberries weren’t enough so she took Hudson’s!

 

I love his face in this one!

And her face in this one!  So innocent!

 

Notice how he’s holding his strawberries pretty tight now. She isn’t gonna get ‘em this time!

 

And Callista – still looking so sweet and innocent!

   

A little more sweetness:

Hudson pottied in his potty chair!

Although he was NOT happy about trying he did it!  For the last couple of weeks every time I have asked him if he wants to try to potty he says no.  Well, yesterday he woke up from his nap super crabby and I asked him if he wanted to potty in his potty chair.  He said no so I took him to change his diaper.  He threw a fit about that too so instead of changing him on his changing table – which I do 99.99% of the time at home – I thought I’d change it up a little and started changing him on our bed instead.  As I was taking the diaper off I asked again if he wanted to go potty in his potty chair and he just stares at me.  I look down and he’s pottying all over the bed!  So I picked him up and ran him to his potty chair and he continued to cry but then pottied in the chair!  So I’m jumping and dancing and singing about what a big boy he is and he continues the crying….

It wasn’t until I told him he could flush it in the big potty that he finally stopped! 

And then he was a pretty HAPPY guy about being a BIG boy and pottying in his potty chair!

AND he pottied in his chair again tonight - twice!  Without the crying this time! 

our new puppy…

 

pretty boy

We aren’t sure if we will let Gigi watch Hudson for us anymore… He came home with his fingernails “pretty” the other night.  I think Jamie was mortified.  I left it on a whole entire day – since it was so “pretty”.  Jamie got the nail polish remover out as soon as he got home from work!
