just having fun...

Hudson will be 7 months in 7 days! And this is such a fun age right now! He is "mobile", and very curious about everything! He laughs, plays, explores, observes, and loves being apart of anything and everything! We have really enjoyed these past few weeks with extra days at home because of snow, and now the weekends together.

Gigi and Papa came to visit for a weekend! We had a great time hanging out, cooking, playing, walking, and singing!

We celebrated with Anna and Kevin the gender reveal of Hudson's future cousin - it's going to be boy! I wonder how much trouble fun Baby Jay and Hudson will have?!

 His new trick is sticking out his tongue! Don't know where this came from, but its so cute!

He is also getting on his hands and knees! He is SO SUPER close to crawling! He can army crawl and work his way across the room with no problem, but it won't be too long before he's really cruising and ALL over the place. Bring on the baby-proofing! :)

 These eyes - they melt my heart every time he looks at me!

 Spotted something and about to pounce!

 He loves water bottles! Forget real toys, put a water bottle in front of him and he's good to go! It keeps him entertained because as soon as he reaches it and "grabs" for it, he actually pushes it further away and will keep going after it!

 Playing with and exploring fluffy stuffed animals.

 I've started letting him hold on to sippy cups. He mostly chews on the mouth piece, but every once in a while he'll actually get some water. He just likes holding his big boy cup.

 He's also now playing in the pack in play while I get things done downstairs (dinner, laundry, cleaning, etc). Just put in a few choice toys (including a water bottle) and he'll entertain himself for a good 15 minutes!

 He is such a fun baby! I can't wait to watch him grow up and become a little boy! I can already tell he's going to be very curious about everything, and not content to just sit by and let the world go on around him. He's going to be right in the middle of everything!
