WoW! WoW! Everybody!










I have come out of the Facebook haze...it took a 12-step program, but I made it out. It's about time we got back to blogging about important things, like my child's development. LOTS has been going on this summer. We were busy, busy, busy. We went to Southern California in May as a family and then I went to Northern California to meet my Texas girls for a girls camping trip. I got to see my Cousin Jen too which was bonus! We finished our kitchen (finally) and stained our front and back porches - two projects that I am glad are over! The summer slowly has turned to fall here. I love the fall here. I love the cool crisp air and the fall colors. However, this means that we are headed into a long winter. I think that I am going to venture out and try some cross country skiing. We will see how far I can go pulling the little man. We are looking forward to our March trip to Hawaii...something to make the winter go by faster!

Hudson is growing so fast. He is talking up a storm - he defintely has found his voice! He recently found the "t.v." and has become obsessed with the Noggin show "Wow Wow Wubbzy!" This is a must see every night in our house. So much so that Hudson grabs the remote and aims it at the TV and says "Wuzzy". He gets quite excited when the music comes on and does a little Wubbzy jig. He has a very unique personality (LOL - look at his parents) and I have been told several times that Hudson makes my "faces". I took this picture today after I picked him up. He likes to climb in the front seat and drive. He picked up my glasses and put them on and waved! Oh boy!

Checkpoint - 13 mos








In honor of the Iditarod, I am posting about Hudson's arrival at his current checkpoint, 13 mos. It has been awhile since I have posted anything besides pictures. Having a toddler keeps me busy! Hudson had his 12 mos check up recently, and he measured 75-80% in height and 20% in weight. Yeah, I said 2-0%. I asked his Dr. if I should be worried and he just replied, "I would kill for this kid's metabolism". So I guess I got a long, lean kid on my hands. Gee, I wonder where he gets it? He continues to explore and push his boundaries. Our current struggle is climbing on EVERYTHING. I recently found him on top of the kitchen table. Needless to say, he has alot of bruises and I have to do alot of explaining! He consistently says, "Mom, Dad, Hi, Bye, Whoa, Boo, and Yeah and No". He likes any and all gadgets. The first thing he does when he comes home from "school" is get BOTH remotes and aim them at the TV. He also likes my iPhone (yeah, I let him play with it - shoot me). He especially likes the Light Saber app and will swing the phone to make the sound. He thinks he is pretty cool.
Lastly, he went in last week for his first haircut! He now is sporting a faux hawk. He looks too cute! I will post the pics as soon as my hairdresser sends me the photos (I forgot my camera!). Toodles for now!

...and a talker!










Sometime around Christmas he decided that "mama" wasn't sufficient so he started saying "mom". He likes to yell this and wait for me to answer him and then start babbling.
His other new "words" are: whoa, dada, and bye bye (you really have to be creative to buy this one but he says it when he waves).
He also likes to point and say "dop". This could be either stop or no. But he uses his pointer at me and he makes sure I hear him. Pretty sure that one is going to come to an end. :)

We have a walker, folks!

I am calling it - Hudson has entered into the walking world. After he took his first steps before Christmas, it only took a couple of days and he was off to the races. We will post a video soon for all you visual people! Not only does he walk, but he likes to climb and not only climb, but climb into things. This has caused me a little heartburn because he is fearless and I don't want a brain damaged child! His favorite place is his shopping cart that he got for Christmas! He likes to perch in his cart and laugh. He also climbs on the fireplace, the stairs, any toys he can push over, frying pans, laundry baskets, and dresser drawers. Oh boy!

I'm Dreaming of a White Christmas

Shopping in a Winter Wonderland...First steps in the snow





Anybody up for an Alaskan style BBQ?

Delicious Prime Rib and the Humble Chef

10 1/2 months milestone

Just FYI - Hudson took his first steps on the 23rd. Now it may have been only two steps between Jeremy and I but they were legit. He is up to 5 steps today (Christmas) and I am sure that the progress will rapidly increase. We will post pictures of Christmas fun a little later.

There's always that one guy at the Christmas party who doesn't know when to quit drinking
