100th Post & Suits of Summer

100th Post! I can't believe I made it. It took a lot longer than I thought but I am happy that after 100 posts I am still blogging! Is anyone still reading???

If you are, I need your help. I have a J.Crew gift card burning a hole in my pocket from Christmas and I feel the urge to purchase a new swimsuit for myself. Why, a swimsuit in January you ask. I feel like retail stores always come out with their cute new summer clothes in January - March time frame. By the time I am ready to buy swim wear in May, all the cute stuff is gone or they don't have my size anymore. So this year I am going to buy a swimsuit now. I need something that is cute, age appropriate (not getting any younger) and will work while I chase Hudson around the beach or pool. What do you all think of the following options. Don't judge on color because each of the suits below comes in several colors (colors can be seen at jcrew.com)

Ok, here is your chance to pick my suit for summer! Leave a comment with your vote.

The Joys of Parenthood

So I feel like everyone I know is pregnant. While I won't share who, I am very excited and happy for each of them. Being a parent is a wonderful thing and I am so very thankful for my little man. And when I hear the news of friends and family who are adding to their family, I can't help but think; maybe we are ready to have another. Then I am brought back to earth with moments like these: Hudson banging a golf club against the staircase, Hudson sticking his hand in the toliet and screamig water as if he has found gold,and Hudson standing on the arm of the sofa just before he dives in to the decorative throw pillows. Ahh, the joys of parenthood.






**NOTE: We do hope to add to ur family someday, but today is not the day. I have a lot of respect for those Moms out there that have 2 or 3 little ones because I am fairly certain that it is more than double or triple the work.

The Strongest Toddler in the World

Hudson has gotten really into these large stuffed animals. We had them in his room but had to remove them because he was putting a three in his bed and then sleeping on the floor (because there was now room for him). He has started carrying them all over the house. It is really cute to see. Below you will see him with the polar bear.

Bad Hair Day

This is what I found when I got Hudson up from his nap this Sunday. I promise for a better longer update later this week!!
