Hudson's latest accomplishments....

In the past couple of weeks Hudson has started doing several new things as he approached age 15 months! It all began with saying "uh-oh" and "oh no" and has grown into "ca" for car, "mo" for more (with signing), "no, no, no" for no, "mi" for mine (why did he have to learn that??), and he makes a cute little noise whenever he sees a train in books, tv, or on the tracks :)

Next big development that I was not particularly looking forward to or ready for was the "I want it so I am going to throw a big huge tantrum over it stage!" Hudson has become that child that screams through Target when he can't have a treat or toy that he sees, he is pointing to food that he sees and saying "mo, mo, mo" and when you don't give in he cries and throws himself on the floor. Um, I would like to state for the record that I thought that this happened during the "terrible twos" not the "I just turned one and can walk, look out world here I come stage." Everyone failed to mention that this all starts so young!

Last but not least in his miraculous development is his love of dipping things. On our vacation he learned to dip french fries in Ketchup. He watched Lee do it and immediately reached to his plate grabbed a fry and went to town! As I write this I am wondering if he will eat vegetables if he can dip them in ketchup first?? Worth a try? I think so!
