Whew! Finally!

Okay, I know I've been HORRIBLE about blogging lately.

Sorry! It has been SUPER busy with school and by the time I get Hudson down (which, unfortunately, has been around 9:30pm most nights lately) I'm exhausted and all I want to do is eat my snickers ice cream bar, take my bath, and go to bed. That's what 8-months pregnant will get you. Speaking of, here is my current state:

I'm almost 36 weeks, which is when Hudson was born. I don't think Brody will be quite as early, if he comes early at all. I'm not sure why....just a feeling I have. I don't think I'm quite as big at this point as I was with Hudson and I'm not nearly as swollen, although I have put on the same amount of weight.

Speaking of Hudson, he is doing AWESOME. He continues to amaze us with the things he learns. Nearly every day, he says something we didn't realize he knew...like the days of the week. It's Saturday here and we're watching football...they flashed a number "14" on the screen and he said, "14"....I think he's going to be very creative because he's been using his imagination a lot when he plays. He'll say, "I'll be right back" and then he'll go get some imaginary food and bring it to us to eat. He gets very upset when we don't eat it, too! :-)

Here he is as a garden gnome for Halloween (he had a blast this year):

We had an awesome Thanksgiving! We spent some time at my parents house (Hudson had fun getting pushed on the 'cart' by Grandpa...and then demanded we do that for hours):

We also got to spend Friday night and some of the day on Saturday with Darrin's mom and sister and her family to watch Dane (nephew) play his last college football game. It was GREAT to see them and catch up....Hudson is not the happiest of travelers yet and he was not always the most cooperative so he and mommy didn't watch much of the game, but we had fun.

And here are his most recent "school pictures":

And I finally got a good shot of Hudson and mommy:
