Christmas 2008

I posted some of our Christmas festivities.....more to come later!!
Enjoy!!

Christmas Morning

Christmas morning, we heard Hudson's door open.....then we didn't hear anything else. He is usually pretty good about coming in our room once he wakes up, but he didn't. We waited until Christmas Eve to wrap all the presents and put them under the tree....so needless to say, he was amazed by everything!! Hudson got everyone up and said, "Let's open presents!!" So we did!!

Merry Christmas 2008!!

Christmas Eve

Christmas Eve we went to the early service at our church with mom, dad, Ryan, Jen, and Jen's family. It was really neat, the whole family took The Lord's Supper after the service. It was a special to be able to it altogether. During the service, Ella only lasted about 10 minutes, Hudson lasted a little longer, but then we had to change a stinky!! We missed my favorite part of the service, lighting the candles. I saw pics and saw it on the screen. It still was a special service. After the service mom and dad came over and we ate pizza, made cookies for santa, mom made sausage rings and egg cassarole. We had fun hanging out and playing. We also watched ELF....Dad had never seen it and really enjoyed it!! The kids got new pajamas from Nana and Papa.

Ella playing under the stockings.
Ella and Hudson- I LOVE this pic....Hudson is hilarious!!My precious baby girl!!
Cookies for Santa.

Last week the kids and I went and hung out at the Eisenhour's house since it was Paul's end of month for work. Eisie was so nice to feed us dinner and let us play. Here are a few pics of our evening!!

Hudy's 3rd Birthday!!

Today is Hudson's 3rd Birthday!! Three years ago today, we were at Baylor Medical Center in Dallas and the wonderful Dr. Monti waited all day and half of the night to welcome Hudson into this world. He was born at 11:56 pm, we started at 8 am. It was a long day, but he was worth the wait.
It is absolutely crazy how the times goes by so quickly. He looks and acts older each day. He is really getting a funny sense of humor....tonight while I was putting the cart away at Wal Mart, he told Paul, "Let's leave mommy." so funny:) We did celebrate his birthday with a CARS party. It was a blast. This year he really understood it was his party and enjoyed every minute of it!! Here are some pics from his party!!

His Lightning McQueen cake...our friend Jen made the cake- she is AMAZING!!

Kate and Hudson playing with the CARS confetti (and Paul said we didn't need confetti- that is why women plan the party :)


Ella checking out things.



Lincoln came with festive wear.

Ella really enjoyed her pizza.

YUMMY CAKE!!!

Present time- Hudson got lots of fun toys, books, and PJ's. Thank you so much to everyone!!

We can't wait to see what this year has in store for us!! Happy Birthday Hudson, we love you and are blessed by you each and every day!!

Baby Bump

Auntie Jen is showing off her baby bump. Jen, Ryan, and Baby D are doing well. Jen has her good days and bad days, so please pray that she gets over this sickness stuff and she can enjoy her pregnancy. We can't wait to meet Baby D on May 29th!! Trevlyn (a friend at church) is known for calling the sex of the baby. Since Ryan and Jen aren't finding out, I won't say what she is thinking, but I can say it is the same thing I am thinking!! We will just have to wait and see!!
