Finally an update!!

It's been a while since I have updated anything going on in our lives. I guess we have all had a busy start to this new year. Brian has started what hopes to be one of his last semesters of course work for his degree, I have been picking up more and more hours back at work and also celebrated a birthday this month, and the kids are being their typical amazing selves...just growing way too fast.

Madison has taken off with her writing abilities and wants to know how to spell everything she thinks of. Her major accomplishment this month has been to write (not just dictate, but actually write down every word) and illustrate her first book titled The Lost Prince. Below you find a short video of her reading it and showing the pictures.

Hudson's newest discovery has been his feet. He can spend hours a day entertaining himself by playing with his toes. (In order to reach them though, he either needs to be in a one piece outfit or pantless so his belly does not get in the way.) When he has socks on he will tug at them and talk to his feet until he pulls them off. You can tell it is quite an accomplishment for him. A few times he has actually pulled the toes into his mouth. Since everything goes in his mouth these days, he really seems to enjoy this. Oh, and our big boy is now sitting in his high chair during dinner...eyeing our food until he gets to eat some!
