Funny Kid

These are just some pictures to show you what Hudsen has been up to lately! He continues to make us smile and he brings so much joy to our lives. He loves his kitties but not as much as his blanket! He is beginning to eat more table food and is starting to turn away from baby food. His favorite foods at the moment are mac & cheese and spaghetti-o's. He knows where his nose, eyes, mouth and belly button are and can say: bye, hey, momma, da-da, kitty, ball, no, tank (thank you) and is starting to really imitate anything that we do!! He is now getting to sit facing forward in the car. I can also report that we have a...........TOOTH!!!! Yay, right-16 mos. and 2 weeks with our first tooth!!!!

Some very exciting news to pass on-my baby sister, Kiley, is having a...........GIRL!!! We are so excited but I think Michael is most excited (Michael is Kiley's husband)!!! The baby girl will be named Stella (love it) and the middle name is still in the works! Congrats Kiley and Michael, we can't wait to meet her!!

Wonderful Weekend

Elizabeth & Gerard were married April 16, 2010. I had the privilege and honor of being the matron of honor. Thank you Elizabeth for thinking so highly of me. I feel the same about you!! The ceremony and reception were beautiful.......it helps when the bride and groom are beautiful people. The weather was perfect for an outdoor ceremony and the reception was so fun!

The girls started out the day by getting our hair and makeup done! It was so much fun! Then we took a limo to the ceremony to get ready. We had some lunch and got ready, took some pre-wedding pictures and then went back to the bridal suite to hang and drink some champagne! Then came the wedding and reception. Elizabeth looked beautiful and you could definitely feel the love between the two. Thank you Elizabeth for letting us share in your special day and welcome to the family Gerard! We love you both!!

Hudsen was such a trooper. He was a perfect angel at the rehearsal dinner, ceremony and reception. We have a wonderful little boy!!



Brian and Erin were married October 3, 2009 in Cabo, Mexico. Tim was the best man and was very proud to stand up for his brother. The wedding was beautiful. Hudsen and I did not go because we did not want to take Hudsen to Mexico. My older sister, Amy, came to stay with us and we had so much fun with her! Here are some pictures from Mexico!

What a beautiful place to get married and again a good looking couple. Erin, welcome to the family! We love you both!

HAPPY EASTER

Easter 2010

We started on Saturday by hunting eggs in our backyard with Hudsen. He loved his eggs, his basket and of course being outside, but he couldn't grasp that you pick up the eggs and put them in the basket. He just wanted to pick them all up and carry them!!

"Hurry up and take me outside."

He was so pooped that he came in and went to sleep!




Sunday morning he woke up and found that the Easter Bunny had stopped by our house. Thanks Nanny for the basket and candy!!!

"Smartie please!"

Then we got ready to go to Grandma and Grandpa's!

I had planned for all of us to match. I had a yellow and white dress that I was going to wear but we decided to go to church at 5:00 and I didn't want to wear my dress all day or change after eating so much good food, so just my boys match!!!

"What's in here?"

A duck from Aunt Elizabeth!!!

HUGE hit, Thank you Aunt Elizabeth!!

You have to play outside on Easter! It's the beginning of Spring!!

I love Easter and it's meaning, what a wonderful gift Jesus gave us!! Our Easter was wonderful. We had lots of fun, good food, family time and making lots of memories!!

Hope everyone had a Happy Easter!!
