Trip to the zoo...

This past Saturday we took Hud to the zoo for the first time.
He wanted to touch the animals SO bad!


Kyle even let Hud drive a little while going through the drive thru part of the safari...which he thought was pretty awesome!! :)

He eventually got tired of seeing all the animals and reverted to playing with the vents.

I don't think he's too sure of what to make of that big animal....it's a lot bigger than his dogs.

all tuckered out at the end of the day...

4th of July, Baseball, & Fireworks

After spending several days in Hot Springs, we came home for a night then headed off to Kansas City for the 4th. Hud did so good considering he had only slept in his crib once in a week and half! He was quite the trooper. We got to shop, watch two of Uncle Ryan's baseball games, and see our first fireworks!!
Linz and I

Hud, Aunt Britney, and I.....this will be her last out of town trip before the little man comes!

During Uncle Ryan's first game he hit Hud two home runs! Hud's great-uncle Pat went and got both balls for him!
Aunt Lisa and Gigi

Kyle, Uncle Pat, and Pawpaw

giving aunt lindsey a kiss


Hudson loves to give himself kisses. He will kiss himself anytime he sees himself in a mirror or on the phone. Lindsey has him as her screen saver on her phone.....SO the next picture says it all!!


Hudson watching his first fireworks at the baseball park.

He loved them....I was surprised that they didn't scare him at all.

high-five



Doing the surfing wave at the game with pawpaw!

We can't wait for the new arrival!

The happy couple (brother Ryan and sister-n-law Britney). Their little boy is due on Sept. 8th....three days after Hud's birthday! :) BUT....no name yet! :/
This was a cute game that they played that asked questions and they each had a boy shoe and girl shoe to hold up.....Ryan won on this question!
All Britney's high school girlfriends are pregnant together just like my girlfriends and I were....except the red head, Holly (she was our Destiny:)! I told her she'd have to get on the ball!

Britney and her hostesses

My boys...we even got a smile out of Hud!

Oh what a growing boy...

I can't believe my baby just turned 10 months old this week and that he's SO close to being a year old! His new favorite thing that he started doing last week is saying bye bye but he waves to himself while he's doing it....it's so cute!

We had another trip to Hot Springs where Hud had a lot of "firsts"....like riding the four wheeler


2nd time to play in the creek


we had to keep him from chewing on the rocks.....he kept wanting to put them in his mouth

he LOVES to splash

his first encounter with a crawfish thanks to grandpa

he was so funny when kyle was dragging him around....he would make the motor boat sound the whole time


on the farm he got to sit shot gun

first time eating black berries - he thought they were the best


you can't tell by looking at him or anything..

eating with kyle's friend's little boy Spencer - they loved giving each other high fives
