Thanksgiving

On Wednesday we packed up the van with a ton of stuff because you never know what you may need with two kids and headed up to Tulsa to spend Thanksgiving with Dan's family. We had lots of fun, food and good times. The best part was getting to watch Dan's grandparents who are 90 and 91 get to hold their great grandchildren. More pictures of the trip and this past month will be in the November folder on the left.

Last Week . . .

Okay, sorry I haven't updated, but we've been busy getting ready for Turkey Day. Here's the highlights. . . Last week Cameron learned how to dunk with a little help. Hudson and Cameron also played a lot together. Hudson laughs and smiles at Cameron all the time. He loves getting attention from him. Hudson hung out with his Dad and watched some football. He also started using his walker even though he doesn't make it move very far. Hudson also discovered his toes and will grab them when he can reach them. We had a pretty good week and our now looking forward to some yummy turkey. Like Cameron will ever eat turkey!

4 years of wedded bliss

Or something like that. =) On Thursday was our 4 year anniversary. It's hard to imagine what life was like before or what life would be without the other. We have been truly blessed in our four years to have our home and two precious boys. We didn't do anything big, just spent time together which is the best thing you can do. On Saturday we celebrated as a family by going to the Rainforest Cafe. Cameron didn't enjoy the restaurant as much as mommy and daddy did.

Happy 50th Birthday NANA!

Thursday was a big day for NANA. She turned 50. She doesn't look old enough to be a Nana, does she.

Week in Review

This week went by fast which was great, but now the weekend is here and it's going by just as fast. Why can't time slow down on the weekends? We all need more time to recoup before we have to start all over again. With that being said, here's the low down on the past week for all of you that are actually still reading this instead of just looking at the cute pictures.

Cameron finally had a successful trip to the photographer. This was our 3rd attempt on getting his picture taken. I don't have the will power to tell you about the other 2 trips. Cameron also wore his superman pj's for the first time this week even though they were too big. If he had his choice, he would wear them 24-7. Cameron can also count to 16. He doesn't care to go any higher than that, probably because we only have 16 steps on the staircase.

Hudson is doing a great job at eating cereal. He gets frustrated if you don't give it to him right when he wants it. They both will be going to the doctor on Tuesday for well checks. This is good because Hudson hasn't been feeling well since Wednesday. Last night he just fell asleep in Cameron's bed while we were getting Cameron ready for bed. His nose is faucet and has been rubbed raw from constant wiping. Cameron now has the same problem without the rawness. And now mom has gotten it too. Yuck!

We all got to see Grammy, Grandpa Curt and GREAT Aunt Betty today. We tried to get Cameron to say GREAT-Great Aunt Betty, but all he would say is Aunt Betty. We got to go to lunch and then the girls got to go xmas shopping. I actually have almost everyone done.

4 months old

Today Hudson is 4 months old. Time flies by too fast. He is very sociable and good natured. He loves to talk, spit, and gurgle. He especially likes to eat cereal now which could explain why he weighs at least 17 pounds. He sleeps from 8:30 to about 8:00 in the morning. YEAH for mom and dad! He holds himself up really well and attempts to scoot by using his toes. He doesn't get very far because his toes have a lot of weight to push!
