Splish Splash Cole Hudson Loves His Bath!

What a sweet honeybun we have in this baby! He smiles all the time, is such a snuggle bug and LOVES his bath. He is such a joy and we are so thankful for our little Cole Hudson...

Don't Let the Bed Bugs Bite...

Okay...so I haven't posted in a while and I think a few of my friends are going to disown me for it! I have, however, been keeping up with taking pictures and have many posts to work on. I do think that one of my favorites is going to be this one, though. Graham is going through such a great stage right now and has finally settled into the fact that Cole is here to stay. He is chatting so much and loves going down for his nap everyday with a new "costume." His favorite is some kind of hat, a book and his flashlight...which I have to go in and turn off once he is asleep to keep the batteries from going dead. He is so sweet and I love sneaking into his room and taking pictures of him in his creative disguises!
Cole doesn't dress up for naps, yet. I am sure he will since this seems to be a very "boy" thing to do. Boys are the best!!! :)

Happy Birthday To You!!!

I can't believe our little Graham is 2! He had such a great party with family and friends. The plan was to go to the park, but weather did not cooperate and we had to move things to the house...of course, the kids didn't know the difference and they had fun playing on Graham's new playset (thank you Nanny and Paw Paw and Kaki and Papa :)) He had a great day with great friends and family, pizza and an ADORABLE cake that his mama thought up! :)

So...do they look alike???

The sequence is Graham, Cole, Graham, Cole.

Cole's Arrival

And so we finally update the blog...COLE HUDSON arrived on Thursday, February 7 at 12:43. He weighed 7 lbs 13 oz and was 19 1/2 inches long. He is a great baby...sleeps well, eats well, and does not cry alot. He and Graham have hit it off well and are now big buddies. Please enjoy the pics. Sorry they took so long to post!

It's "Big Boy Room" Time!!!

What a fun and exhausting day! It started off with me meeting my mom with Graham for the weekend so that Marc and I could work on his "big boy" room...even though his mom still thinks he is still a baby (and probably will until he is about 14!) :) While I was gone, Marc steam cleaned all the carpet in our house and even did our furniture because he knew this was something I really wanted done before Cole came. I am convinced more than ever that I have the best husband in the entire world...he has been such a trooper! We unloaded Graham's playroom (which is now his "big boy" room), organized toys, cleaned out two closets, set up an entire room with furniture and all the adorable accessories that go with and made trips to Lowe's, Walmart and Ikea all in about 10 hours...and we're done! The room looks fabulous and I am so thankful to be finished and for my sweet husband who did all of this work with a smile on his face!
