See you next year!

I thought it would be only fitting to do a last post for 2008. What a year it has been! Hudson was born,my Dad had and fought cancer, and we bought a house to just mention a few….I can’t wait to see what 2009 will bring!
I leave you with one last Hudson photo for the [...]

Joyeux Noel. Part 2

Each year we switch off having Christmas day with our families. This year it was my family’s turn. We had Christmas morning at my parents and then everyone came over for dinner! We had a great time celebrating and ended the night with a wonderful time of singing Christmas carols.

Dear Santa….

I took Hudson to see Santa a couple of days ago and he had a great time!!! Who wouldn’t love a jolly old man saying Ho..Ho..Ho… and this santa was pretty convincing…

Thanks to rascals to rebels for providing the Santa and to Kristen for being there to capture the moment!

Brrrrr….

I know we live in SoCal and we are always being made fun of complaining about cold weather but 37 degrees? That is cold!! Our house is not made to withstand this weather (1945 build date = no insulation= freezing house!!) To keep Hudson warm I put leg warmers on his arms, socks as mittens [...]

the King of all Wild Things…

In a quest to start Hudson on his yearly Christmas ornament tradition I came across this “Max” from Where the Wild Things Are ornament and knew it was perfect!  Little did I know how much Hudson was going to love it. He instantly bonded with this little guy and now lights up every time he [...]

Stocking Stuffer!

I was so excited  to arrive home yesterday and have this waiting for me on the doorstep! I can’t wait to fill it up!

Update!!

Friday we went to the eye doctor to have Hudson’s left eye checked out. He has had a goopy eye since birth (clogged tear duct). The doctor said his eye looks great and it is just a “plumbing problem”. Surgery can easily clear up the problem, but we are praying that it will clear up [...]

Strike a pose!

Today Hudson had a photo shoot for our Christmas cards with my friend Kristen. I am so excited with the way they turned out! Here is a sneak peak… you can go here to see more!
