Hudson visits!

Hudson (and Thomas and Jamie, too) came to visit last weekend!  That made for a very happy auntie and cousin.  Ainsley couldn't wait to see "Baby Huckson".  They came up Saturday evening and stayed the night, so I was able to see lots of my little nephew! 

Yes, Hudson...you have to sit there for a minute and let her hold you!

All she wanted was to give you a kiss!

I'm so glad his Mommy brought plenty of extra clothes, otherwise he would have been wearing pink at Aunt Trista's, because we had to change his clothes a lot!  He had a diaper explosion within in the first few minutes of me holding him, and then got me in trouble by spitting up every time I would take his bib off to try to take a picture.  EVERY.SINGLE.TIME.  Oops! 

This cracks me up!

I don't have a neck!

Yes ladies, I'm sitting in a pink bumbo, but I'll still pose!

We got the fire pit out that evening to roast some hotdogs and make s'mores.  I was very excited about the s'mores!

Time for bed (and to go find a bow)!

I think Hudson liked it at Aunt Trista's.  He fell asleep before 10 and slept until 7 or 8 the next morning!  Of course, Lily was asleep around 11 and up at 5.  I don't know how Thomas and Jamie got it so easy with their first.

We're pretty sure Lily has already passed Hudson when it comes to weight.  Hudson is so long and skinny, and Lily is just a little chunk! 




Lily says:  "Mommy, tell Hudson to stop hitting me!"

We headed down to Dad's for lunch before Thomas and Jamie headed back to Missouri.  Grandma Mary and Aunt Royce stopped by to see the babies and Grandma brought a pie.  I was one happy camper!  Grandma's cherry pie...yum!  (Can you tell I'm on a diet?  I'm way too excited about any kind of food that isn't good for me!)

I think everyone was stuffed after lunch and I know I would have loved a nap, but when you forget to pack diapers for the big girl, a nap isn't in the plan.  I had to make a trip to Walmart for diapers instead.  Lily's size 2 diaper wasn't quite big enough for Ainsley.  Can we say baby diaper-thong?!?  Okay, it wasn't that bad, but I really don't know how Joel got a size 2 diaper on her.

Ainsley was very intrigued watching Hudson get his diaper changed.

Aunt Trista finally learned her lesson and left the bib on for a pic!

I was able to get a few more minutes of snuggles in with Hudson before they left.  We sure miss that little guy and wish they lived closer! 

When Hudson comes, that means Jake comes with him.  Ainsley was pretty happy to see that stinky dog.
