Growing up

 Stella turned four months old this week! Stats and pictures to come soon...

 Bath time = one of his favorites

 I couldn't get her to smile and take the picture fast enough…so we get the dead pan look from Stella. 

 Hudson in his new hat - he has my skin and tans easily, so we need to keep that skin looking beautiful!! He wears lots of sun screen as well!

 The ever present bear…showing a bit more these days just how much love it gets...

friends

What a great two years we had hanging out with the Jones family here in Denver. When they first came out here two years ago there were only two kids, and now as you can see there are five between the two families! We had many great times with them, and will greatly miss the crazy, funny, energetic get togethers. Since Andy has known them since college, i have a good feeling we'll be keeping touch for many years to come though - and I don't know if Hudson will forget his best friend Quentin! :)

Garden of the Gods

Today we spent one of our last days with the Jones family down at the Garden of the Gods. It started raining toward the end but we managed to get a couple cute pictures! These two are friends for life. :)

The boy in constant motion...

summer buzz

Today Hudson asked to have his hair cut. At this point he knows he gets a lollipop with every cut, but he waited until after the cut to eat it. He looks so grown up! :(

Mother's Day

FIRST PAIR OF JEANS

Yes, she is wearing a sweater and hat the first week of MAY. No, i'm not excited about this…but she did look pretty cute. 

oranges

The title of this blog speaks for itself.

Hudson peeled the orange all by himself today, and he was so proud…and naked.

 Last weekend we went to the zoo with the fam that was in town - Hudson LOVED having everyone here - he pretty much took turns holding everyones hand throughout the weekend.

 Sometimes daycare will send me pictures of what Hudson is doing during the day - they sent this one last week, and i think i'll keep it just in case he becomes a doctor someday…i'm so glad our time in the hospital didn't leave any permanent fears when it comes to doctors!!

 We got a sun tent for the backyard, since we plan to spend as much time out there as possible this summer!

 cell phone pics - hudson has finally turned a corner when it comes to eating out! I don't think we had to get up more than once to "go get him" :)

Stella has been doing really well this week with her eating, and we are praying it just keeps getting better! Last weekend was very hard with her, as she didn't eat well for about 5 days and we were definitely getting pretty worried! Even though she's still thin, she is eating better and seems to be 100% happy (other than the gas!)

Uncle pete's pics

 A few pictures from Pete and our weekend with the Rosdil clan. 

We met friends at the zoo, and when Hudson saw his friend Quentin he immediately ran up to him and they gave each other a HUGE hug. Priceless for sure.
