Our little man has turned 2! To celebrate his special day, we had a small gathering of family to the house. While he was napping we set up his birthday present, a jump-o-lene, and got ready for the party. When he woke up we all went into his room and told him we had a birthday surprise waiting for him. He immediately stood up and started jumping in his crib, hence one of the reasons for getting the jumper. He walked out of his room, stopped for a minute and then took off running to it in the living room. After a few minutes of laughing and jumping, he invited his sister to join him. Together they have lots of fun so far. Then after eating, he had his first piece of cake since his last birthday, because of his allergies, and loved it!! Thankfully no hives emerged...so hopefully he is already outgrowing some of his allergies. After cake he started tearing through his presents. After opening each one, he didn't want to let go of his new toy in order to open another, but we managed to get them all opened. It's hard to say what his favorite is. He has definitely been playing with all of them, so they were all great gifts. Thanks everyone!!
The cutest thing of the day was probably that whenever he was asked how old he was, he would say "twooooo", but hold up all his fingers instead of just two. Very cute! At the end of the night, Spider-man 2 happened to be on TV, and since it was his birthday we let both kids watch part of it. It was the first movie either of them had watched with much action, explosions, and violence. While Madison was closing her eyes already worrying about nightmares, Hudson was yelling, "wheeee, wow, and yeah" whenever Spider-man was flying and rescuing everyone from flying cars and octopod men. Once again, I am not surprised! The first thing he did the next morning was ask for Spider-man again!!

Hudson's new likes include pirates, The Wiggles, Spider-man, and school. He still has his tried and true staples such as Barney, cars, trucks, trains, music, playing with anything Madison is playing with, and of course, being outside, running, climbing, and jumping. He is still a dare devil and is not afraid of much. He is learning things exponentially. He knows all the primary colors and is starting to learn new words everyday! He still speaks in what we call "Hudsonese", but we usually can figure out what he wants!
Quick cute story: I was getting out a piece of cheese for Madison and even though Hudson has never had a piece before, he kept asking for it, "cheese, cheese, cheese." I told him that he couldn't have one until we went to the doctor again and got his allergies checked out. He then started speaking his "Hudsonese" and pulled Brian to Madison's closet to open it. He got out the doctor kit, brought it to me and then said, "cheese, please." Poor kid thought that would work! There is no doubt he is smart and knows what he wants!
Back to the update: In the course of a day he usually makes us laugh, gasp at something he is doing, send him to his room, and fall more and more in love with him! Although I may get frustrated sometimes by his clingyness and adventurous ways, I love this little man of mine!
Happy Birthday Hudson
