Mowing

Hudson helped Daddy mow the yard last night. He thought it was sooo cool to push the mower. Everytime they would pass by me Hudson would look over at me and smile the biggest smile. He even helped rake up the grass and put it in trash bags! Maybe this will last into his teenage years....yeah right.

It's a Boy

After looking back at previous posts I realized that I had not announced our news. We did find out the gender of our little one. Haleigh and Hudson will be getting a little brother. Everything is looking good and we are right on track for a December delivery. We are so excited.

Wyatt David Dean - expected December 16, 2009

New Haircut

Hudson has a new haircut! If you didn't think he looked like Jim before you should see him now. When we walked into Snipits (the place where Hudson gets his hair cut) Jim looked at the stylist and said "See my hair? I want his cut just like that."


Hudson got a present

Hudson got a package in the mail at the end of June from his Great Aunt Carolyn. It's is the cutest tiger back pack. He absolutely loves this "bag". It has wheels on the bottome so he puts all his cars and trucks in it and pulls it around the house. Thank you Aunt Carolyn!!




















The Aquarium

The first weekend in June we went to the Aquarium with our good friends Rod and Amy and their two girls Libby and Annie. We had a really good time! They have a white tiger exhibit which was cool and Hudson and Haleigh really enjoyed all the rides. I think Jim had a good time too. What do you think?



































Last gymnastics class









I'm doing some catching up here from the last month or so. I really am trying to be good about keeping everyone updated.
Here are some photos from Hudson's last gymnastics glass at Little Gym (In June). He had such a good time I think we both hated to see it end. We will definitely have to do another class in the fall.

A Trip to Surfside Beach

On Sunday we decided to take a trip to Surfside Beach. It was the perfect beach weather. Hudson had a great time. We didn't think he would take to the water but he had a lot of fun splashing around and playing in the sand. We did the typical beach things...built a sandcastle, flew a kite, and splashed around in the Gulf. We had so much fun that I think we are going to try and go as much as possible this summer.

On a separate note, while we were getting Hudson out of the truck for our fun day at the beach we noticed his arm was a bit swollen. As the morning progressed so did the swelling in his arm. By the time we were ready to leave the beach Hudson's left arm looked like it belonged to the Michelin tire man. We gave him some Benedryl and went straight from the beach to the ER. After about a two hour wait the ER doctor told us he was bitten by some sort of insect(really?? I can't believe I paid $100 for that tid bit of information) and was having an allergic reaction (by this time his hand was turning blue). He got a dose of Benedryl and an oral steroid and sent us home with a prescription for some more of the steroid and a cortisone cream to use. Today is Tuesday and his arm looks ten times better than it did Sunday. We think he was bit by a spider sometime in the night.
