10 Months Old

Today is Hudson's 10 month birthday. It's so hard for me to believe that he'll be one in just two short months. It seems like just yesterday I had my ultrasound and found out we were having a boy. Hudson has brought us so much joy over the past 10 months...I look forward to what the future holds and am thankful for the wonder of the past 10 months. It sure is amazing how much they change during this first year!

10 Months old and as happy as can be.....most of the time.

All of the window sills in our house are just the right size for him. He likes standing at the window and seeing what's going on outside.

Here's some live action at the window...

He really likes being underneath this table for some reason...maybe it's like a fort or something to him...

Put a sock in it....oh wait, you already have one...

Christmas

We had a wonderful time celebrating Christmas this year with both of our families. It was fun watching Hudson experience his first Christmas, although he never really did get the present opening figured out.

This is my favorite picture from Christmas.

Hudson got his first teddy bear from his Grandma Boorman and then spent some quality time with him in the box he came in.

Apparently he wasn't too excited about Christmas dinner....maybe it's because he didn't get all the ham and potatoes.

A family tradition - a new Christmas ornament every year - here's Hudson getting his first.

Books from Great-Grandma and Grandpa

This seemed to be the usual expression when he was opening presents - not overly interested or excited - just curious.

He got a little people nativity set from Aunt Janeil and Uncle Shawn - he liked the boxes!

Grandma and Grandpa Koethke got him this rocking horse that makes noises and moves its head and tail - Hudson likes watching it but wasn't too sure about riding it yet.

9 Months Old

Since Hudson turned 9 months old we had to do another of our quarterly photo sessions....is it possible that he's getting even cuter? :)

This one I had to throw in just because his expression was so funny.
