17 months

Hudson is 17 months! And in honor of his 17 months, I will share with you 17 of Hudson's favorite words. (According to Daddy there are like 30, but that might be just a little bit of exaggerated pride!) But Hudson does talk A-LOT! Some words very clear, some words, phrases, sentences are very unclear. And he gets very frustrated when we don't understand him...the joys of toddlerhood!! Okay, on to the list (with translation!)...

*mama & dada
*ball
*gog (dog)
*car-car
*bye-bye
*wa-wa (water)
*side (outside)
*sot (that's hot)
*mo-mo (more)
*baby
*Ba-ba (Barney)
*boo (book)
*yummy-yummy-yummy (did you get that one?)
*dis (this)
*ni-ni (night-night)
*bi-bi (Bible, so sweet! Thank you Ms. Pat!)

We have definitely moved into a new phase of life, it's called NON-STOP. Hudson is all boy, all the time. He is active, loud and keeps us on our toes. And even though he threw a big fit tonight because I would not let him have anymore fruit snacks, he continues to be the joy of our lives. Do you see him reading his Bible?? Okay, it's upside down, but it's a good start!! We love our little man! We start school in a couple of weeks and I'm sure we will have lots of adventures!

Speaking of our lives being full of joy, this Wednesday we get to take a close up look at the newest addition to our family. I am having a special sonogram done to check on possible complications from a virus I tested positive for at the beginning of the summer. We would appreciate your prayers. We are trusting God and thanking Him for each day we get to "spend" with our baby. AND, we will probably find out if we're a boy or a girl, so make sure and put in your vote! And maybe, just maybe, I will post a pic of the baby bump at 16 weeks! It's a big week around here! Stay tuned for the news!
