First day of summer vacation....

Today was our first Monday at home and it was so much fun to spend the day with Hudson! He slept in until 7:00 and then promptly destroyed the house in a matter of minutes. There were cheerios all over the kitchen, books all over his bedroom, toys all over the living room, and oatmeal all over the dining room and high chair!

After cleaning up several messes we went for a walk with our neighbors Maggie and Brigid. We went to Petit Provence on Alberta for some tasty pastries and coffee. Hudson and Brigid shared a berry muffin and totally loved it!

This afternoon we blessed Winco with our presence (and whining) as we paced the aisles as fast as we could before the ticking time bomb (aka Hudson) went off. Everyone kept telling me how cute he was....if only they could have been at the checkout with us when he was taking everything off the conveyer belt and throwing it onto the floor! Sooo cute!

A second "attempt" at blogging....

I guess it was a nice thought that I would be able to keep on the blog.....I looked back and only a few posts ago it was the first day of school and now today it was the last. I suppose you could say I might have left out a few things over the past 9 months!!

Thank goodness school is out! This was a very hard year, not only in the classroom but for me as a mom too. I struggled everyday having to take Hudson to daycare and not stay home with him. Tomorrow will be like a fresh breathe of air knowing that it is the first of a couple of months that I don't have to leave him at daycare while I am at work.

Hudson is walking/running all over the place these days and pointing out all of the things that he can't reach that he wants. He is obsessed with the tv remote and my cell phone....shocking I know! He is blabbering words and sounds all the time, yet the only things I can decipher are "mama" "papa" and "uh-oh" at this point. He likes to play peek-a-boo with his hands, blankets, curtains, etc! He loves to laugh at himself and play chase. His favorite game lately is running away from the bathroom naked when it is time to dry off after bath time! He is such a happy boy and he brings joy to us every minute that we are with him.
