Gummy Smile!

Have I mentioned lately that Hudson is the most adorable little man I've ever seen? :) He just could not get any more perfect in my opinion. Such a dollface and I'm loving every single minute of this little dude.

Yesterday Daddy was playing with him and Hudson just adores his daddy! I'm loving these pictures!








And a couple more of Emma playing outside...


We've got 2 sweet sweet kids!


And the newest addition to our family-the 2010 Honda Odyssey!!!!! Now that we have 2 kids we really needed a mini van for all of our trips to TN, vacations, and just lugging stuff around town. We finally decided on the Odyssey and I got my favorite car color-dark gray! So far I am loving it but I've only driven it home. It has lots of buttons and stuff that I need to play with and I can't wait to haul stuff in it. She's a beauty!

The Babies!

I'm slacking on the blog pictures! My family keeps me reminding me that they look all the time for new pictures but there aren't any. Somehow my little monkeys keep me occupied all day long. :) Enjoy these pictures for now and tomorrow I've got several more!

Emma being a princess last week. She loves to put on dresses and twirl around!


Hudson spending a few minutes in the jumparoo!


Today Northrop Grumman had their annual easter egg hunt. Emma had a blast and got tons of candy!


Poor thing kept pulling her pants up b/c they are too big! She kept walking around grabbing onto the back. :)


Showing off her eggs!


Such a cutie!


Check out those eyes!


I've got some super cute pictures of Hudson but will share those tomorrow. Also, we bought our 1st mini van today!!! We got a 2010 Honda Odyssey and I LOVE it! Pics of it to come!

And We're Back!

I haven't felt like blogging the past several days but I am back! We were busy last week with dr's appts at the end of the week and didn't do too much over the weekend. Hudson saw Dr. Dudley on Wednesday for something and he weighed 14 lbs 2 oz! Such a chunk! Then Emma saw Dr. Judy on Thursday for a check up and her lungs sounded great. We get to cut back on her Symbicort to once a day and we go back in 4 months. He is talking about cutting her dosage in half too since she's on the highest dose right now and maybe next summer she will get to come off it completely! They won't take her off during the winter months so that's why there is no possibility until next year. We always love going to Dr. Judy & Dr. Mahesh's office!

Now on to the pictures...

Emma is still obsessed with Yo Gabba Gabba and the other day she drew these pictures all by herself and did the writing. I was feeding Hudson and had to take a pic when I saw it! This is her version of YGG and she tried to write their names. :)


Emma had mommy draw them last week while Kelsey was here and I really think Emma's look much better!


Hudson in his bath last night. He loves to splash & kick his legs & we end up making a huge mess on the bathroom floor!


Some tummy time today! He's getting so much better.


And some cute faces of miss Emma! Such a character as always!

Bubbly!

I'm absolutely loving this amazing weather! I really hope it doesn't get cold again. I might just cry. :) My cousin Kelsey came down today and is spending a couple days of her spring break with us. She informed me earlier that the only reason she came down was so she could eat some sushi. They don't have any good sushi places back in Cookeville so she drove 3 hours just to get some. What a stinker! We were going to go to Surin's in Madison but I've talked her in to going to the hibachi grill on County Line Rd. I'm so excited! Love the hibachi!

Today we spent some time outside but then we told Emma it was too hot so we had to come inside. How funny is that?! Hudson did not like the brightness outside. I don't know what we are gonna do this spring/summer when Emma wants to go out and Hudson wants to be in. We'll cross that bridge later. Now enjoy some pics from today!

Hudson chillaxin in the stroller...


Emma & Kelsey had fun making art on our driveway...


It was Kelsey's bright idea to trace Emma's body! Emma didn't mind!


Bubble time! She loves her some bubbles!





So cute!


I love her sweet little laughs and that big smile!





Thanks for looking! I'm hoping it doesn't rain tomorrow so we can roam around Bridgestreet. If it is nice outside they will have the carousel open and emma can ride the teacups. Oh and I'm loving the yogurt place! So yummy!

New Pictures of Hudson

Hudson is growing so fast! I put him on the scale with me a few days ago and he weighed 15 lbs! We go back to Dr. Dudley on the 25th I think so that'll be exciting! He is more awake these days but still sleeping through the night. Love that! He's such a momma's boy and super sweet. :) Enjoy some new pics from last week! Oh and pics of Emma are coming soon!


Wearing his alphabet shirt


He has big baby blues just like his sister!




Daddy loving on Hudson after work! Our favorite time of day!


Last night G and I went to the Wizard of Oz at the VBC. Our friend Mark plays trumpet in the show so he hooked us up with free tickets! It was awesome! The show was super funny. I yawned almost the entire time and struggled to stay awake but I was just so tired. It was a long day yesterday. After the show we got to visit with Mark for a few minutes and tonight George is going to hang out with him after the show. Our amazing friends Ashli & BJ watched the monkeys for us and put them both to bed. They are so brave! I was so worried about leaving them both at bedtime but they did wonderful. Thanks Ashli & BJ for being so wonderful to us!!! It is so nice to get out of the house & have adult time.

That's about it for now. Hopefully going to enjoy this nice weather for a few days and my cousin Kelsey is planning on coming down next week on her spring break. Super excited for that!

Hudson & Hayden!

Today we went to Chad & Jessica's house to play with Hayden. Hayden arrived 5 days before Hudson and we share the same OB. She came out with a head full of dark hair and is just the sweetest little thing! Her Hudson are about the same size and just so darling together. She is Hudson's other girlfriend b/c he already has two. :)

Hayden has some gorgeous blue eyes!




Look how cute they are! I could just love on them all day long!


Just chillaxin!


Both babies were laying on the floor at one point and chewing on their fist!


LOVE her eyes!


They are both a little wobbly!





"Mom, she's invading my space!"


Awww, so so so sweet! Oh I just me some babies!

Emma's Big Girl Comforter!

For the past year I've been looking for Emma a super cute girly comforter for her bed. I've always loved the ones at Pottery Barn but I couldn't make up my mind on which one and they can be rather pricey. So now 1 year later I finally broke down and ordered one! I'm so bad at making decisions. I stress over it and lose sleep over it (crazy I know) and I'm so proud of myself for making it happen. :) When the UPS man pulled up I was jumping up and down inside! Emma loves it and immediately jumped under the covers to sleep (didn't last long). I wasn't going to get yellow but I just couldn't stop thinking about the Emily Quilt. Now I have to get her some new bed sheets b/c hers don't match at all and she needs a bed skirt. PB's were just too expensive for me.


And a cute picture of my two babies this morning in our bed. Hudson will just stare at Emma and smile. Love it!


Oh and Hudson GIGGLED for the very first time 2 nights ago while Daddy was barking at him. Strange I know. I kept trying to upload the video of it yesterday but blogger won't upload my videos anymore. Maybe it's our new camera. He's also been sleeping through the night the past 3 nights!!! Finally at 13 weeks he's got it down. He normally doesn't go to bed though until 10 or 11pm but he sleeps till 6am and I will take it!

We have a really busy weekend. Tonight we are going to Paul & Carmen's house for dinner/games...tomorrow shopping for a MINI-VAN!!! :) Then tomorrow night our friend Katie is coming over for dinner and then on Sunday we are going to visit Miss Hayden!!! Going to be a great weekend!

Prayers for My Granny & Pictures Galore!

First of all, tomorrow is my Granny Scott's birthday and she is having back surgery at good ol Vanderbilt Hospital. She's been down there since yesterday receiving two blood transfusions b/c the chemo she is on has made her platelets really low. The surgery itself shouldn't take long I've been told and she should get to go home on Thursday but it is still scary. She could use lots of prayers and positive thoughts these next couple of days. :)

Not a whole lot to report here except for the 1st time ever Hudson has slept over 8 hours!!! He's 13 weeks now and I'm hoping he continues to sleep all night. It's so nice to get more than 4 hours at a time. He also has been eating more today. Every 3 hours today he has eaten 4-4.5 oz which is more than normal. Such a big boy these days!

Over the weekend we had such a blast with the warm weather and playing outside. We went to Bridgestreet, rode the teacups, and went to Dublin Park. Now it's back to the 40's. :(

Oh and I forgot to update about Emma's 3 year appointment with Dr. Dudley! We went on Feb. 11th. Emma was 26 lbs at the office (24 lbs at home) and 36 inches tall. She can ride most of the rides at Disney being 36 inches! :) She didn't get any shots or anything and Dr. Dudley was very proud of her. Mommy was proud too b/c I took both kiddos by myself having to carry a sleeping emma in one arm and Hudson in his carseat in the other. Mommy got a workout! I also have to note that Emma is a master Candyland player. We've played 3 or 4 times together now and she beats me every single time! It's so exciting to play games with her and I look forward to family game nights as the kids get older. Now on to pictures...

This morning Emma was sporting her high heels with her pjs...hard to see in this pic.


She is quite the photographer these days! She will take pictures around the house for an hour if I let her. She loves to photograph me, Hudson, her Sesame Street babies and so on. So cute!


She lined them all up (as usual) for a group picture and then she did individual shots.


I got out the Jumparoo today that my grandparents bought Emma. I know he is still young but I need to get it cleaned up b/c soon he'll be jumping away! I sat him in it for a sec & snapped a couple of pics. He fell asleep on me. :)


Look at those CHUBBY cheeks! He's so darn precious!


Emma and her artwork! I love her pictures. She told me this was Foofa.


And last but not least Emma exercising with Mommy! :) I've been doing the Jillian Michael's 30 day shred and Emma likes to do it with me. She always wears crazy outfits & it cracks me up. Today it was her Minnie Mouse pj top, cute little apron, and her slippers. What a hoot!
