11 Months

Hudson turned eleven months today, which means he is only one month shy of his first birthday. I am both elated and sad to see my boy grow up so fast. I am loving every moment with this sweet, happy, giggly, content, tough, easy-going, loving, curious, silly boy. He is such a joy to be around. He can always make me smile. In short, I love him.

Hudson loves to clap his hands (especially when he is excited); Hudson loves to play in my kitchen cupboards (especially the pots and pans with lids); Hudson loves to giggle (especially at things that only he knows are funny); Hudson loves blueberries and watermelon (especially when they are all over his face); Hudson loves to eat dirt, leaves, and sticks (especially when no one is looking); Hudson loves to walk/run (especially when there are no shoes on his feet); Hudson loves the toilet (especially when no one is there to monitor him); Hudson loves to unroll the toilet paper (especially when he gets the entire roll unrolled before anyone notices); Hudson loves to be outside (especially now that he can walk and explore on his own); Hudson loves his sister (especially when she is not bugging or bossing him); Hudson loves kitchen utensils more than toys (especially the dangerous ones he should not have); Hudson loves the washer and dryer (especially when the front loader doors are open); Hudson loves to play (especially with his dad and sister).

Hudson really is a wonderful eleven-month-old. He is constantly entertaining and amusing us. We all love him dearly, and are so glad that he is a part of our family.
