Christmas #3, with the Talkington's

We had a great time in Spring for Christmas. Hudson really enjoyed spending lots of time with his grandparents, great-grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins! We were very busy!

Hudson wasn't too into Christmas this year. He was more interested in the tissue paper and boxes.

Hudson sportin' the plumber crack Christmas Eve. (sorry too cute not to post) Grace and Madeline especially had a fun time with Hudson. They are SO good with him, they even dressed him up to be one of their sisters.

A few pictures from Christmas morning. We had a GREAT time in Houston!

Everyone needs a little Christmas cheer!

Merry Christmas to ALL!!!!!!

(Thanks Grammy and Pa for taking Hudson to see Santa this year. Though he didn't quite enjoy it, the picture is PRICELESS!)

Play date with the enchanting, Miss Ruby

Please accept my apologies.

To all my loyal blog readers (if you're out there)... I extremely apologize for not updating the blog on the timely basis I should be. I have some REALLY good excuses, but I will not bore you with them. Any excuse, is not a good excuse- I think. So... I'm now, FINALLY updating my blog, a month later with ALL the posts I would've done- so really, you haven't missed a thing! Enjoy!

My little 11 month old.

Okay... it's more like 11 months, 1 week and 4 days but at least I got it done!

Christmas #2, with Grammy and Pa

Saturday, December 19th we continued the Christmas spirit with Grammy and Pa! Hudson was ready to PAR-TAY!

Hudson did not know what to think of the HUGE wrapped present, however we did know he was going to tear into it and find out!!!At first he was a little afraid of the gigantic spring horse, but... after petting its hair and starring at it for a VERY long time he worked up the courage to touch him. I think they will be best friends. Every kids needs their own Radio Flyer spring horse! -Thanks Grammy and Pa

Christmas #1, with the Lee family

Saturday, December 12th we celebrated Hudson's first Christmas with the Lee family (Matt's mom's side of the family). I don't think Hudson quite knew what was going on, but he was sure excited to play with all his new toys AND the wrapping paper!!!

Turkey Day- yum!

Yum-O! Thanksgiving was a hit with Hudson this year! He especially loved the pumpkin pie, or was it just the ridiculous amount of REAL whip cream (aka calf's slobber, according to my cultured husband:)) he consumed? Either way, it was a great Turkey Day! That's right... he was STUFFED!Hudson and his cousin, Zoey, entertained us with very lovely sounds from the piano. I do believe Hudson has some true, raw talent. Can you say Beethoven and Mozart?

Thanksgiving weekend was gorgeous. We had to take an excursion to the park with cousin Zoey, Aunt Janell and Grammy. We had a great afternoon!
