Hudson is THREE

I blinked, and my baby turned THREE years old. I cannot believe it. He starts 3 year old preschool tomorrow and it’s more than my heart can handle.

At three years old Hudson is full of spunk and energy. He is on the go non-stop each day and keeps us all on our toes. He LOVES to sing the wheels on the bus but prefers to make up his own version with mommy. Just for the record, daddy on the bus goes “toot toot toot” and mommy on the bus says “I love you”….I may have had a hand in both of those. 
Whenever I try to take his picture he screams “CHEESE” and scrunches his face.

Hudson is the best big brother to “baby Sadie” and loves her so much. He’ll tell everyone that Sadie came out of mommy’s tummy and that she eats milk (also from mommy’s tummy, ha!). Hudson is always checking in on her and is such great helper when I ask him to bring me something. Sometimes when we are going somewhere he tells me that “baby Sadie not go with us” but is a trooper when I correct him. Hudson will shhh us and say “be quite” when she’s sleeping. Sadie’s eyes light up when she sees him and I can’t wait for them to become best buds! 

Hudson loves to watch “rodots” on the “peter” (robots on the computer) and is still obsessed with the youtube videos of people opening Easter eggs. He also loves to watch old school Donald Duck and Chip and Dale cartoons. Donald is his favorite!
His favorite food is “apple” (applesauce pouches) and he lives for his “smoonie” (smoothie) each morning. Some days it’s like he has a liquid diet because that’s all he wants to eat. Other days he’ll scarf down his favorites: mac n’ cheese, grilled cheese sandwiches, tomato soup, breakfast sausage, corn on the cob, pick the sausage off of pizza, spaghetti, meatballs, goldfish crackers, and cereal.

Hudson LOVES to play outside, legos, trucks, The Lego Movie, anything Disney Cars or Toy Story, Jake and the Neverland Pirates, Mickey Mouse, and still sleeps with his two puppies each night.

He doesn’t like bedtime, putting on sunscreen, or styling his hair. 

Hudson is a cuddle bug and asks to “cuddle me mommy” first thing in the morning and at bedtime. I cuddle him as much as possible and I hope that never changes! But he knows I’m a sucker and will scream “I WANT TO CUDDLE YOU” when he should be sleeping because he knows I’ll fall for it. Stinker.
He prefers to take a shower over a bath and potty trained like a boss. Hudson still naps most days for 1-2 hours.

For his birthday Hudson requested “chocolate cake and fresents”…and that’s exactly what he got!

We love our big three year old and can’t wait to see all the fun that this year will bring.

    Aw I can't believe he is 3! What a BIG boy 🙂 He and Owen have so much in common, like Donald Duck, their liquid diets, preferring the shower to name a few. Great job on his cake! Happy birthday Hudson!

    Oh my goodness… I want to cuddle you! I die. I couldn't resist that either!!! Mason has recently become more cuddly too and I just die when he snuggles in close. I could sit there for hours!
    Happiest of birthdays sweet Hudson!

    I love his birthday request, too cute! It sounds like he is so much fun and full of sweetness and energy. And how sweet that he "wants to cuddle you". I'd probably fall for that too. Every single time. So glad you all got to have fun celebrating three years of Hudson! Happy birthday to him!

    Stop it with that cuddle business. That's literally the cutest thing ever! If Caleb told me he wanted to cuddle, that's all we'd do all day. Bless it. I think I said it on IG (can't keep up sometimes), but hope that Hudson had the best birthday and that three is off to a good start!:)
