strawberry pickin'

Today we went to Froberg Farms and picked our own strawberries. It was a fun experience but boy was it hot. Mommy's mental note "go early in the morning not at 11:00am". Hudson did a great job picking the strawberries. He would lift the plants up to find the strawberries,pick them, and put them in his bucket and when that got boring he would pick them and squish them and when that got boring he picked and then threw the berries. After all was said and done we picked about 3 pounds of strawberries. Not bad for only 30 minutes of picking. We brought our loot to my parents house and made a VERY yummy strawberry pie.




Ok, so here are some of the pictures from our first Astros game with Hudson. He was overall a good boy at the game but I will say that when you bring a 20 month old to a game you end up watching him more than you watch the game. I wish our Astros would have won on this night but we had no such luck. We did get to experience the Friday night fireworks which Hudson did not care for because of the noise but overall a good night!

The pictures are actually backwards but I'm having trouble with the blogger site and don't feel like switching them right now. The bottom photo was taken right after we got to the game and Hudson was just in awe of the field and the players. He kept pointing and saying "bayball". Apparently we were not the only ones taking pictures of our son that night. The last photo (which is actually the first) is after 4 hours of watching our team loose. That's pretty much how we all looked.

Memorial Weekend

It seems like I always start my blog entry out the same way...It's been a really long time since I've posted :-( Anyway, I won't try to catch everyone up on things from January till now. Too much information to post! If you need to be caught up call me and we'll have lunch.

We had a very eventful Memorial day weekend. We took Hudson to his first Baseball game (go Stros!), went to a Luau and indoor playground with our Itty Bitty friends, stopped by our friend Colt's 2nd birthday party, and we hosted our first ever crawfish boil! The crawfish came out great! We were pleasantly surprised. Thanks to our guinea pig friends for trusting us with their Memorial Day lunch plans.

Below are some pictures of Hudson with some of his Itty Bitty playgroup friends at the Stomping Grounds in Sugar Land. We had so much fun! This place was great. I got to have my cup of coffee and Hudson got to play inside, where it was cool, with his best buds!



I'll try and post more pics from the weekend tonight or tomorrow...so stay tuned!
