Monkey See, Monkey Do...

...well more like Elliot see, Elliot do.... :)

Fun times at the playset....

Binder Park Zoo

Me, Elliot and Mumma met Gavin, Billy and Johnny, Owen and Ryan at the Binder Park Zoo today....it was soooo kewl!!!! Now that I'm 3, (well actually 3 1/2) I can do lots of kewl neat things and today I got to pet some goats and feed the giraffe. I walked the entire time we were there - about 4 hours! Elliot had a good time just rollin' in the stroller with us. He got to hang with his baby friend Ryan (Owens' brother) who is just a month younger than he is. Best part about the zoo....yehp, you guessed it.... the train ride(s)!!!! SWEET!!!

Gavin, Me, Billy,and Owen - 4 terrified toddlers on a cow statue!

Easter 2009

We had a nice Easter - I got to go on an egg hunt, but these were trick eggs cuz there was nothing inside but a yolk! What kinda bunny leaves REAL eggs for kids to find!?

Here's me, Elliot, and our cousin Wes

Bad Hair(cut) Day

Not sure if you have heard of or seen the movie Dumb & Dumber, but dude, I got the haircut (see first picture below)! If you haven't seen the movie, Google it and you will know exactly what I'm talking about. Mother.....the next time you try to give me a haircut.... READ THE BOOK FIRST! Or actually put the bowl on my head when you cut, so it will at least be straight. Better yet, just take me to the salon! :)

Rock on!

I am ALL about REAL food now... do NOT try to give me that mushed up sloppy mess that you people call baby food. Who says you have to have any teeth to eat? This dinner was meatloaf, potatoes, and corn.

I'm starting to look juuuust a little like my big brother Myles.

Our Cousin Wes

We finally got to see our new baby cousin Wesley... he is soooo little! He is really good baby and boy o boy can you tell he's a Hudson....that boy can toot!!! :)

We had Grammys 60th birthday party last weekend so we got to see baby Wes and our cousins Nick and Nathan too. Nathan is soooo kewl.... I followed him around all weekend!

...good times with a plastic Easter egg... Me and my new BFF...Nathan

Elliot 7 Months

Can you believe that I am 7 months old - well, actually now, closer to 8 months! I tell ya, it's great being the second kid.... you get away with so much more! And the real yummy food comes sooner too! I am now starting to "chew" - well, with the two teeth that I have - and Mumma is givin' me the good stuff! So far I have had Cool Whip (yummy!), pizza, bananas, cookies, juice, and best of all.... FROSTING! Man, my brother was right... this stuff rocks!

...like Daddy, like big brother... poor Mumma is doomed to be in a house of geeks! :)
My teachers at school did my hair one day.... how do you like my moo-haha (as Myles would say - aka mowhawk)!?

Happy St Patrick's Day

I have no idea what this holiday is all about, however, all I do know is that we got to make these sweet tie-dye shirts at school (mine is stripes and Elis is circles) and we also got to have a picnic lunch outside. It was sweet! Mumma even cut my PB sandwich into little shamrocks for me. :)

Cooks and Books

I went to the Young Chefs Academy for a Cooks and Books class. We were supposed to make animal sugar cookies then go to a kewl kids only bookstore for book time (about animals). Well, as it turns out, the cookies were just circles but that didn't bother me! I had a great time. The best part was not the cookies or the books, but the FROSTING! Mmmmm.... first thing I did was dig right into that delicious frosting! Next time I go to the class, it will be pancakes - one of my favs! The bookstore was really kewl too - I could spend all day in there, but Mumma says that would bankrupt her.... whatever...

Ahhh... Springtime is Here...

...or so let's hope so anyway. Well, technically it won't arrive for a few days, but it was so good to go outside and play! Elliot even joined me and Mason on the playset. I helped Daddy grill dinner too. ....what's for dinner? you ask... well since I have been working on my culinary skills (see next post), I decided to grill up some pinecones. :) ...you definitely don't want to overcook them!

Sunny Arizona!

We went for our first cross-country family vacation in March. We went to go visit Grandpa JT and Grandma Mary in Scottsdale, AZ. We got to ride on a school bus (aka shuttle service) and a big airplane! Me and Eli were very good little travelers and adjusted to the time change pretty good. We had so much fun swimming in the hot tub, roasting marshmallows, and best of all was a super kewl train park. I got to tour a real steam train and then ride on a little train just my size. It was sweet! Coming home was a pretty long day, but boy o' boy was it a fun vacation!
