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

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

Decorating our Christmas tree each year is one of my favorite traditions. I just love walking in to our house and smelling our wonderful fresh tree. I'll miss it when we have to take it down! Still no presents under our tree. Mama/Santa needs to start wrapping! We have some new favorite ornaments this year. I love this mercury glass "H" I ... Read More

Last week Hudson turned 3 months old! I can't believe how fast time flies when you have a baby! I absolutely love the stage that he is in right now.

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

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. He was sort of fussy for them and is still unsure about taking a bottle, but overall he did fine. I, on the other hand, cried in the parking lot and the entire drive to ... Read More

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. Lord help me. I'm going to miss my little man more than words can describe. Some days I think I could never be a stay at home mom...it is SO hard. And ... Read More
