Hudson’s First Christmas Program

On Monday Hudson had his first Christmas program with his daycare buddies! We thought we would have a few years to go before these programs began for us....but we were wrong! I guess they start them off young.  Hudson getting ready to go on stage in his ho ho ho shirt. We weren't sure how he would do since the program started a hour ... Read More

Boot love

Boot love

Before I start my boot post, I have to say a few words. I have a heavy heart this morning. Now that I'm a mom my worst fear isn't that something bad could happen to me...it's that something bad might happen to my baby. All weekend I couldn't stop thinking about the events at Sandy Hook Elementary. I can't imagine dropping Hudson off at school and ... Read More

Baby stuff I didn’t know we needed….until we did

Baby stuff I didn’t know we needed….until we did

When I first got pregnant I vowed to keep the "baby junk" in our house to a minimum. I figured we didn't need more clutter in our house, right? Turns out I was wrong! So I thought I'd share my list of things that I didn't think we needed...until we did! 1. Crane Drop Humidifier. Hudson has his first cold right now and this humidifier is ... Read More

New Mommy Confessions…..

New Mommy Confessions…..

Guess who slept through the night for the second night in a row???? This guy! Is it a fluke or did I luck out with a good sleeper? Who knows....but I'll take it! Hudson slept from 7:15 pm until 6:15 am. HOLY. COW.  And he did MUCH better at day care yesterday too....all because daddy figured out he'll take a bottle if he is swaddled. ... Read More

this n’ that

this n’ that

And now, a post in list form....because it's Monday....and I'm tired. Thank you for your prayers and good thoughts on my last post. Hudson did okay at day care.

Working Girl

Today is the day. I'm going back to work. I've been dreading this day for months. My 12 week maternity leave has come to an end and I am so sad. Today is also Hudson's first day at day care.
