Random cuteness, part 1

I have a lot of random pictures that I just thought were cute from the past few months... so here they are!

-The one in the helmet is actually from last March I think, but somehow it never made it onto the blog. I just thought it was too cute not to have.

-The pic of Brecken, Karsten, and Hudson is from Brynne's open house... there's another really cute one except Hudson is picking his nose so I thought I would spare you!

- food.... I have a hard time getting this boy to eat much, so at times I have to get creative. My friend Gina had a fun little idea of letting him use toothpicks to eat- it worked! (at least for a little while)

-and I dont' know if you can see the dark ring around his mouth in the bathtub... but it is oreo! I just don't get it-- he eats an oreo, I wash his face, and then 10 minutes later there is a ring around his mouth again! This just happens with oreos... how does he have a ring around his mouth even in the bathtub??

- Papa Benny and Grandma Karen stayed with us for a little bit over the summer while they were trying to buy a house here in AZ. That also meant that their dog Bonnie got to stay over- Hudson was thrilled! He even wanted me to take his picture with her.

-Also while Grandma was here she let Hudson use her soap in the bath and even showed him how to pumice his feet... well one day a few weeks later we were outside and he had a rock up to his foot. I asked him what he was doing and he said it was like Grandma Karen-- too funny!

Hudson thinks it is funny to put on my pajama pants.

One day Hudson got out all of his "friends" (stuffed animals) and decided that they needed to have blankies too. He used his blankies and then also got the dish towels out of the kitchen. They were spread from his room all the way down the hall.


We went out to dinner with Abe's parents to PF Changs. Hudson loved trying to use the chopsticks and actually got a few pieces of food in his mouth with them!


Hudson pulled his little McQueen chair up to the table. I asked him if that was the chair he was going to use. He said yes. So then I asked him how he was going to eat. I thought these pics were funny because it shows the cute little smirk he got on his face as he showed me and realized he was pretty funny.

- Hudson is so goofy. We were taking some other pictures and Hudson wanted us to take one of him too and this is what we got- I love that silly smirk!

-Hudson also thinks it is funny when his shirt gets stuck like this.

-I just had to take a pic of Hudson in the basket because I realized as he was sitting there that he wouldn't be able to fit in it much longer! (sad)

I had these left over party hats from Hudson's birthday last year. We had been coloring with markers and were cleaning up when Hudson saw one and decided he wanted to wear it. He started singing happy birthday to himself. I kept cleaning up and was going to put the tablecloth away when Hudson says, "You're taking my party!" So I left it there and he continued to sing to himself, blow out his candles, and clap... so funny! We have been to lots of birthday parties and I think Hudson will be totally thrilled in a couple months when it is actually HIS birthday :)
