Three Months!

It’s the 29th and that means Hudson is 3 months old and time for a photo shoot on the yellow chair:

I thought I would include some photos from past shoots! Look how he has grown!

We survived the first week!

Well the title of this post pretty much sums up the week. We survived! Hudson did really well both with Grammy and Tante Erika. Bryan did a great job of getting Hudson ready to go in the morning, and I made it thru in one piece (one extremely tired piece). 
Thank goodness for technology because it [...]

What a difference!

 For the last few months I have been working hard on clearing out our front yard.  Last weekend I spent eight hours clearing out the last stump in the front half of our front yard. I planted grass and now just have to wait for nature to take its course.

I will miss you little man….

Today I go back to work. While I am not looking forward to being away from Hudson, I am reminded of these blessings:
1. I was able to have a great 12 weeks off and am thankful for every moment that I was able to spend with Hudson.
2. I have a wonderful job that I love [...]

Growing Up!!

Hudson has graduated to the next size of diapers!! From newborn to size 1 (although size 1 is a bit big still, after a couple major blowouts it was time to move to the next size!)

here are some pictures I took this morning!

Happy Birthday!!!

to my Tante Laurie!

Have a wonderful day!!!

Celebrating Oma’s Birthday!

On Sunday we went to Ruby’s in San Juan Capistrano to celebrate Oma’s birthday! Here are some pics:
Hudson got a new shirt for the occasion:

the good ole’ days. Part Two.

The third picture in the last post developed quite a conversation amoungst my mother and aunts so I thought I would post more pictures from this vacation.
It was July 1970….

I assume this is the stinky fish….

and the motel….. I love the wallpaper!!!!

 

my blog a book??

So while “surfing” the web this morning I came across this website that will allow me to turn my blog into a book! I think I will do this when Hudson turns 1, and then every year after that….
What a great way to capture all these great memories. Isn’t technology amazing?
And what’s a post without [...]

The good ole’ days… part one

I am putting together a slideshow/movie for Opa’s 80th birthday party. It has been so much fun looking at old photos. I decided to share some of my favorites with you. These are some great pictures of my mother and aunts with Opa! ….Enjoy!
This is one of my favorites… (I love my mom’s look…so chic!)

I heart these chairs!

I came across these chairs from one of my favorite design blogs Design*Sponge. They would look amazing around my dining room table. Too bad they are $950! (each!)

We miss Daddy!!

this was Hudson early this morning as we took Bryan to the Airport. He is off to the Surf Expo in Orlando, FL for the next 7 days……..

Do you want fries with that?

I came across this scene yesterday…. Mr. Fairbanks decided he wanted to find out what was inside his hamburger.

Hudson’s first movie!
