Hudson turns the big ONE today! We started off the morning by singing and dancing to The Ting Tings' Happy Birthday song! We opened presents immediately because Brady couldn't stand staring at the presents on the counter. Brady helped Hudson open EVERY present (such a good big brother). After Hudson's nap, we went to Music class and did more dancing and singing and then we headed to Chick-Fil-A where everyone had fun. Hudson and Brady each got a gift from the manager and Hudson got some free ice-cream. It was Hudson's first time eating ice-cream (he even used the spoon!)! It was such a struggle to take away the melted ice-cream from Hudson, but Brady is a great distraction with his busy body.
It seems like yesterday we brought Hudson home from the hospital last July. Back then, I never dreamed I would be able to sleep again...it sure goes by fast. Hudson amazes us each and everyday with his milestones. Here are some of our favorite examples that we love:
points at objects he wants or likes
his four teeth (two on the bottom and two on the top)
claps his hands to Patty-Cake
plays Peak-a-Boo
walks around the house with a big smile on his face.
jumps in his crib when we come in to get him.
tries to talk (Brady, Hudson, Banana, Ball, Daddy).
throws and kicks the ball
climbs the stairs
Happy Birthday, Hudson! We love you so much!
