I know I complain a lot about what a difficult child Hudson is but we love him so much. He is crazy and wild and into everything but he is so fun right now. My favorite stage of toddler-dom is the learning-to-talk stage.  We spend all day laughing at the things he says that are so cute and once we find a new phrase we make him repeat it over and over. He has the best manners and says please and thank you for everyone. He also greets every single person at the store and asks "whats that?" for everything as well. Here are some of the cute things he says.

Every time we take a corner in the car he yells "WOO HOO!!!  YAY Mommy!!"

When I find him with something he's not supposed to have he hands it to me and says "OK hee go. Thank you."

 "You seeyus Dude?" (are you serious dude?)

"Oh, that's AWESOME"

"Why? I'll die?" (when I tell him to stop climbing or jumping off something.)

"Oh, cu-ute" - mostly directed towards Brynn or her dolls

"Oh this is good GOOD!"  -eating anything

Whenever I tell the kids to get ready to leave: "Mom. Wab?" (he always thinks we're going to the lab. He loves it because they have an alhambra water thing that he always makes a big mess with)

Everytime he's about to get in trouble he starts crying "Mommy I hab owies" (Liar!)

When I drop Bryson off at school: "Mommy. No Huddy go nigh-nigh." (he knows he goes straight to bed when we get home)

"I-self" - for just about everything

"Mom. Where Dad? Wolk? Fowmoos?" (he thinks Tanner's always seeing farmers)

At bed time: "Night Mom. I seep Bysie moom." (can't wait till he can sleep in Bryson's room)

"Yub you!" (Hudson tells us a million times a day how much he loves us)

"Soddy" (sorry)

If I don't answer to "Mom" in a millisecond he starts yelling "Gosh! Kim!!!"

"Pee-ee peas" (pretty please!!!)    "Geels" (girls)

"Dats gushing" (that's disgusting)

"See-yull" or "EE-meal"  (cereal or oatmeal - says this before anything else when he wakes up)

And if you preface everything with Mom or Dude you've got Huds own little vocabulary.

Hallelujah!!!!!!!!

Those of you who scrapbook will appreciate this. Those who don't scrapbook will not understand what a huge feat this is.  

I. Am. Caught. Up.!!!

I've only had all my crap on the table for the last 4 months but I am finally caught up in all 4 of my books. YAY!! Now I'll take a hiatus for the next year and get way behind again.

And even better than getting that massive thing over with is that Hudson is FINALLY sleeping through the night again. The last two months he has been waking up multiple times for no apparent reason and screaming his head off. It was killing us. One night I counted 7 times!!! But with some good ole amoxicillin for his ear infection and new allergy meds we're good to go. I can't believe I can roll over at 6:30 a.m. and not want another 4 hours of sleep.
