I don't really have anything interesting to say so I will leave you with some pictures of the cutest 18 month old in the world!

Hudson's First Haircut

So we took Hudson to get his first real Haircut today. We have trimmed it ourselves a couple of times. He cried a little bit but overall he did alright. Here are some pictures of him. He looks so cute and he loved his lollipop at the end.

ELMO!

Hudson is in love with Elmo right now. He woke up saying Elmo this morning. He loves to sit in his chair and watch Elmo on DVD. Here are a few pictures of him relaxing, eating popcorn and watching Elmo. Needless to say Brad and I are getting a little sick of Elmo. Maybe next month he will be on to something else.

Update on Hudson and New Deck

So we took Hudson to the Doctor yesterday and he has a Double Ear Infection. They are not sure if the last ear infection ever went away. SO now he is on one of the strongest antibiotics that they make. It tastes and smells awful so we are doing everything we can to get it into his system twice a day. Hopefully he will be all better soon. The good news is that he doesn't really act like he feels bad. He is still his same busy, talkative, wild, happy self. We are very thankful that we have such a wonderful son.

In other News, Brad and his Dad have been building a deck off our back porch. It looks great. We are so thankful to have Perry help us with this project. Brad has been talking about building this deck since the day we moved in. We still have a ways to go. We are excited to use the new deck this Spring. Since My Dad has been hounding me for pictures, here they are! Enjoy!

Happy New Year and I Hate Winter

Happy New Year. This is my first post in the New Year. I cannot believe that it is 2009. I am still trying to figure where 2008 went. The lack of posting is not caused by the complete laziness that follows the holidays but because our computer got some sort of Trojan Virus. Needless to say that our computer spent about 5 days with the Geeks from Geek Squad. Now it is as good as new.

We had an amazing time with friends at a cocktail party ringing in the New Year. Pictures posted below. Then My Mom, Aunt and Cousins came for a visit this past weekend. We had a blast eating, drinking, gossiping and playing with Hudson.

Now on to why I hate Winter. This only the second Winter that Hudson has been alive and both Winter Seasons he has been sick on and off. Yuck. I am so sick of him being sick. He is coughing all the time and we are pretty sure that he has another ear infection. He just had a cold and ear infection right before Christmas. I feel bad for the poor guy. I guess we are off to the Doctor tomorrow. It is sad when you are on a first name basis with the PA. What is amazing is that I have managed to stay healthy this year (knock on wood). I don't know if we could survive another winter like last year. Last year every time Hudson got sick, I got sick. We both had several colds, the stomach virus and the Flu. Double Yuck!
