New Pics

I Love how these turned out. I can't believe how big he's getting. Six months. Wow these last few months have gone by so fast. I am really enjoying how fun Hudson is getting. He makes new sounds and is more vocal everyday. I love it. He is so fun. During the photo shoot he laughed more than he ever has. It was hilarious. My friend April does such a great job. I love every picture she took. Thanks Apes!

First Tooth

So you can't see the tooth very well but its there! And it begins just when we get Hudson sleeping through the night he starts waking up and gets a tooth. And now he has two teeth. They are really cute but don't feel good when he bites me. So funny/ sad story. Hudson had been biting me for the last little while and I have heard that if you flick them that they stop. So one night he bit me really hard and I flicked him. He got the saddest face I have ever seen...Then he bit me again right after. So I flicked him again. He got real tear and everything. Oh it almost made me cry. He didn't bite me for like over a week. LOL Oh every day is an adventure. I never know whats going to happen with him. Its a crazy time all the time:)

Halloween

So Hudson's first Halloween was fun. At first I wasn't going to dress him up because of 1-He wouldn't remember it and 2-I didn't want to spend money on a costume that he would wear for 20 minutes. However, He was two things this Halloween. LOL. Our neighborhood did a costume exchange and we scored this cute pirate costume for the ward party. Then my step-mom let us borrow the cute pumpkin costume. It was my little sister Morgans. Funny Huh. So on Halloween we went to Randy's work and did a trunk or treat then up to my dads for trick or treating. Hudson didn't last long so he stayed home with the grandparents and we took my little sisters around the neighborhood. It was really fun. Some guy in the neighborhood was cooking hot dogs. Good Times. After that we ran to my Mom's for birthday cake for my brother Braedy. It was a crazy busy Halloween.

AARRGGGHH!!!

Hudson with his Dad, Cute!

Here is Hudson with his cousins. Teagen and Draycen.

Here are a couple of Hudson's firsts.

First bottle

First time he peed all over the couch. I thought that something felt warm and before I knew it he had peed all over me and the couch.
First blow out all over his bouncer. It took like an hour to clean all the poop off. I can't believe how much can come out of something so small.
Here he is in the bumbo for the first time. He can almost hold his head up. :)

First time eating rice cereal.

First Hair Cut

I was tired of looking at my son and seeing this mullet he had. Everyone kept saying he looked like an old man. So after giving dad a haircut I decided to give Hudson his first haircut!! Mullet no more!! LOL.

Family Photos

We had our family pictures done a few weeks ago and I think they turned out pretty good. Too bad we had to do them only a few months after having Hudson. C'est la vie! Maybe then next time we do family pictures I won't have baby weight to lose. :) Oh well.

Blessing Day

Here are some pictures of Hudson in his cute blessing outfit.

The big blessing day. I had been so stressed out about this day. We are both from such big families and knew it was going to be a crazy day. However, as Randy assured me a million times that it would all turn out, it did! Every one helped out with food and my awesome dad built stairs off our deck so that people could eat out on our patio. He's the best. The day was so nice. The blessing Randy gave was so beautiful and I am so glad that I am married to such a wonderful man. Thanks to all who came and supported us. We love and appreciate all you did to make our day special!

The Last Two Months

First week worth of diapers.

First milk mustache !

This is how he sleeps all the time. Hudson doesn't like his arms tucked in the blanket. Once I tucked them in and when I went to check on him he had pulled his arm up and through the neck of his onsie. He is one determined little guy.

Newborn Photos

My best friend April Lupus is amazing at photography. She came over and did Hudson's newborn pictures. I was so happy with them. They all turned out so cute. Her blog is Photosbyaprillupus.blogspot.com. Here are just some of the cute pictures we got!

Hudson Robert Brown

Well here he is. Hudson Robert Brown. He was born on June 9th 2011. Weighing 7lb9oz and 19 and 1/2 inches long. After being in labor for 17 hours you finally came. It took being in labor and going naturally for about 12 hours and only dilating one centimeter in that time then an epidural to get him into this world. But it was all worth it. He is now almost 3 months old and doing great. he loves to snuggle and be held all the time. Here are some pictures from the beginning.

First bath in the hospital.

The wonderful after labor photo. This is what 17 hours of labor does to a couple :)

What a proud Papa!! It was so fun to see Randy with Hudson. You could just tell how much he loved him and he was so sweet with him. The whole experience was so amazing.

Here Hudson is getting all checked out from the Doctor. He was perfect. 10 fingers and 10 toes. He had strong lungs and cried right away. After he was born he was so alert. He was awake for like over an hour. Just looking around. That is one thing that people always said about him after he was born was how alert he is. He is such a blessing to our lives!!
