Time

Well we are now heading into week six with our newborn. Time is really going by fast!! We are all doing well. Jim has been working really hard lately. He is the only sales rep now for the Houston office so even when he is home he is taking calls from builders and clients. Thank goodness for weekends! Haleigh is also doing well. She is currently in Tae Kwon Do and she loves it! She has a birthday coming up at the end of the month. She will be 15 years old!! I am also doing well. I'm enjoying motherhood. Everyone tells you that it is hard work being a mom, but I honestly don't think you can truly grasp that until you are actually a mom. It is definitely one of the most rewarding things I've ever done though!

Hudson is now cooing more than ever! He started smiling at us last weekend. I got so excited I called my mom and dad to let them know. I get so excited over the smallest things. I've discovered that if you say "I Love You" in a sing songy voice he responds by smiling. It's the cutest thing ever! He went to his first barbecue last weekend where he got to meet his first friends. We have two friends who had babies a couple weeks before Hudson was born and we all got together at my parents place to eat, drink and socialize.

Here are some pictures from the BBQ:

This first is of all three boys. From right to left...Hudson, J.G., and Curt


Hudson and Curt. They both look a little scared in this picture.


Hudson "talking" to J.G. (FYI...Hudson loves to talk)


Hudson and J.G. holding hands. Aren't they cute??


J.G. and his mommy Michelle.


Curt and his mommy Michelle and Hudson and me

We all had a good time and it was really nice to talk to other mom's who are going through the same trials and tribulations that I am.

So Cute

I wanted to put up some of our recent pics...
This is one with his Aunt Suzanne



This is Hudson's first Halloween pumpkin, carved by his daddy. Didn't Jim do a good job?

This is Hudson's second pumpkin. He was not as happy with this one.

Hudson with Mimi. This picture was taken right after the pumpkin picture, so he was a little worn out and needed some comforting from his Mimi.

All dressed up to go see Great Aunt Cindi and Great Uncle Jimmie


I had to take this picture. We call these his little old man pajamas. haha
