All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth...

Well Hudson got 'em! The second bottom tooth is trying to make an apperance. We noticed it the day before Christmas Eve. he had been super fussy the day before and we didn't know why. Well we got our answer. He's been doing okay with this one. No temp, just drooling all over the place, fussing and sticking everything in his mouth. He's been waking more often at night but it just means more time for mama to hold him. He had a great first Christmas. We were so busy!! Christmas Eve we celebrated with Cody's mom. Hudson got books, toys, clothes, you name it! Cody & I didn't do too shabby either..new bar stools, kurig coffee maker, massage gift card, new chi flat iron & blow dryer, food gift cards..we had a wonderful Christmas.

Christmas day we headed to O'Donnell to celebrate with Cody's family. Hudson was a trooper. He must have been passed around a million times. He did get a good hour nap in though, thank goodness. We then headed home to celebrate with my mom & gram <3

We were exhasted by the time we got home!!

*Christmas Eve 2009*

We are headed to San Antonio for the Alamo Bowl to watch Texas Tech play. BLAH! Anywho, the River Walk will be a blast! We're heading out Friday and coming home Sunday. I'm excited to just get out of town.
Looking forward to 2010 with my growing baby boy and amazing husband. Hudson has his 4 month shots on Wednesday the 6th =(  Not looking forward to it.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

Jingle all the way

So Mia found this amazing little contraption at HEB that holds all kinds of foods and has a mesh like net at the end so babies can get solid foods out without any chunks. We blended up an apple and made some yummy applesauce and let Hudson try this for the first time. I'm sure it felt good on his gums and his tooth coming in, but the faces he made were priceless!! It took him a while to figure out how the thing worked. We tried bananas the next day, yea not so much a fan!

TUMMY TIME!

Hudson loves tummy time and is begining to get the hang of rolling over! This picture is the most precious thing! He was in mid convo holding his little hands ;-)

Holy Moly! If this picture doesn't make you smile, not sure what will! Cody was changing Hud last night and came around the corner with him with this santa hat on saying "Merry Christmas!" We had to get a picture in front of the tree. MERRY CHRISTMAS Y'ALL

My baby will be 4 months on the 31st! The exact same day I found out I was pregnant one year ago. What an amazing New Year present I received

Christmas is in 3 days.....

We are getting some friends together tonight and having an ugly Christmas sweater, bladder buster party! Bladder busters is @ Crocs and I hear it's pretty intense and no one can use the bathroom for 3 hours. Which is no bueno for me considering my bladder is the size of a peanut! But I must say, I have a pretty bomb.com sweater. It can't beat Cody's (I'm suprised he is actually participating) but we'll see.

Pics coming soon

GOD BLESS

8 days until Christmas!!

First tooth!

Holy tooth fairy!! Lil man has his first tooth poking through ALREADY! Mind you, he is just 3 1/2 months. I noticed he had been fussy for a few nights and the pedi suggested baby orajel. I've been rubbing a small amount every night before bed noticing his gums were rough but didn't notice a any teeth...until yesterday!! One little bottom tooth.

Holding his teether <3

This past weekend was such a blast. We had our Girl's Christmas Friday night and a dvd exchange. Then a few of us went out afterward. It's so great to catch up with great friends. We celebrated Laural's graduation. I'm so very proud of her!!!

Girl's Christmas 2009

This makes me laugh =)

He's just like mama. When I'm hot I kick one leg out of the covers. He must have kicked his way out to cool off

Thanks Melinda (my boss) for the cute onsie!

11 days until Christmas!!!!

Fa lalalala

Looking forward to a busy fun filled weekend. Friday is our annual Girl's Christmas. My girlfriends and I have been getting together the past few years exchanging ornaments, gossiping, taking silly pictures, playing games, just enjoying each other's friendship. This year we are doing something a little different and exchanging our favorite dvd growing up. Mine of course, is The Little Mermaid but figured maybe not everyone had the same interest as I did. I did find a pretty good one though. It's got a great message and reminds me of my group of great girlfriends. This is our 3rd year to have t-shirts made. The first year we all had "Grey's Girls" shirts because of course, Grey's is what brought all of us together. The 2nd year was a quote by the Beatles "I get by with a little help from my friends" (couldn't be more true) This year it's zebra writing with a super cute quote!

Saturday is Miss Aubrey Kay's 1st birthday!! So crazy how time flies. I remember visiting JP in the hospital after Aubrey was born. She was so tiny. I'm almost positive by the time Hudson is one I will be that mom that is crying asking "where did the time go?!" We also have a BBQ to go to in Big Spring later in the evening.

I got the picture CD from Meg yesterday and ordered our Christmas pictures. Hopefully HEB will have them ready at lunch so I can send them out and people will get them before the New Year..ha.

Viva CALIFORNIA! Planning our Cali trip (hopefully) sometime in January....

It's begining to look alot like Christmas..

What do ya know?!? It actually snowed!! December 4, 2009. It was wonderful. Hudson & I woke up to a white snow covered yard. I had the day off and Cody had just gotten of shift. We bundled Hudson up and took him outside to snap some pictures before it melted.

He had no idea what was going on. I placed a small amount of snow in the palm of his hand and he gave me a "mom what the heck is this" look! Priceless

Is this not the cutest thing ever? This was right before we bundled him up to go play in the snow. He's posing by his very first Christmas tree in his reindeer jammies<3

I can't believe my boy is already 3 months. Where does the time go? He acts like a 5 month old. I have a feeling he's going to be a bruiser!! He's getting so strong, keeping his neck and head up for a good 15-20 min at a time.

* grabbing & holding on to everything

* talking and cooing all the time

*making the sweetest noises

*sleeping in his crib (almost always through the night)

* eating around 28 oz.

*constantly watching things/people in the room

I'm almost positive he is about to start teething. Nights have become a little hectic. He is putting his whole fist in his mouth and just sucks away as he's screaming his lungs out. I've bought him a few teething toys he adores! I ran my finger across his gums the other day and can feel some little teefies wanting to come through. So I guess Hud is going to be an early bloomer and pop out some teeth soon. I just wish it didn't hurt him so bad. As a mother, that is one of the most unbearable things when your child is in pain & you can't take it away =(

I'm in LOVE

My Stud

=)

He's so handsome

I love this one!

These pictures speak for themself. So much love captured on a tiny camera. Megan did a great job!!
