10 Months

We are two months shy of the big ONE YEAR birthday and I can NOT believe it. Hudson is the sweetest baby with the biggest smiles yet messy, loud & adventurous at the same time.

I finally got a picture of his upper teeth that came in last month. Watch all body parts because this boy puts EVERYTHING (including the walls) in sight in his mouth and now that he has 6 teeth, you better be careful.

Things I want to remember about Hudson:

-he has started to pitch fits if you take something away he shouldn't have

-he is starting to realize when he shouldn't do something and crawls quickly in the other direction when he gets busted.

-he can stand on his own but then gets nervous and falls to the ground.

-he has taken his first few steps but still would rather crawl

-"da da" were his first blabber words but then came ta ta, then na na and FINALLY MA MA!!! Boston talks to him in the backseat of the car and says, "Hudson can you say, 'cement truck'?" We're not quite there yet.

-he waves to you alot more now and its the SWEETEST thing to see him get all excited.

-he has a handicap way of clapping---slaps one hand against his other wrist.

-he has moved up to 12-18 month clothes to my dismay.

-he is getting alot of table foods now and thankfully so far he doesn't seem to picky.

-you have GOT to keep your eye on him because he HATES to be confined. When I'm grocery shopping and even if he's buckled in he will STILL manage a way to get out and start climbing into the back of the basket. He knows how to escape his bumbo AND stroller. Who is this kid?

-he's also got fast hands and can snatch anything at any given moment. You've got to be quick on your feet with this kid.

We love this boy regardless of his busy body self that doesn't want to hold still for ANYTHING!!!

And just for fun I had to add this picture of my sweet coordinating boys a few weeks ago before church.

(please excuse Hudson's greased look. His hair was still damp from the bath)
