2009 In A Nut Shell

This and That

Sweet Hadley

Goodie with Hadley.

How many guys does it take to put a baby toy together? :)

Check out my new chair!

Hadley and Aunt Kody

Hudson is calling those HOGS! Silly Kapra and Kody went to the game and froze... didn't they know that all the fun was right here.

Snuggled up with our babies. My favorite thing to do.

Hudson playing with Uncle Kord's pirate ship.

Hudson walking, but I kept taking the picture as he fell.

Can anyone hear me?

Me trying to take care of everyone at the same time. I look a little worn out. Maybe I should take a nap. :)

Both babies asleep at the same time... that doesn't happen very often. :)

What's in there?

I don't know how she slept - Hudson was banging his firetrucks on everything.

Careful!!!

Hadley's 1st trip to the doctor.

So... I'm a little behind on posts... I've been busy. :) Hudson and Hadley are perfect! Hudson is going to be 1 on January 21st! Everyone else is probably thinking "finally" but I can't help remembering holding him for the very first time - because it wasn't that long ago. :) I love my "big baby boy" so much. As much as I want him to grow up, I still want him to be my baby boy. He is so close to walking. He can walk from mommy to daddy and from couch to couch, but he is so close to making it the real thing. Hadley is getting bigger too... well as big as an almost 3 week old can get. She's filling out her diapers and her toes are right at the end of all of her newborn outfits. She already lost her belly button cord - which made me cry. We go to the doctor on Monday for her check up and I already know that everything is going to be great. This past week, while it was snowing and we had no school (2nd year in a row when I'm already missing school and don't get to enjoy the snow days, but get to make them up at the end of the year), we went and visited my parents. We celebrated Christmas and my family helped me with the little ones. Of course Hudson and Hadley were both sick with awful colds - lots of coughing and snot. Hadley and I had to go to the hospital the morning that we were completely snowed in and right after Hunter went back to Bentonville. She and I were having trouble breathing. She ended up being just fine, but I was given breathing treatments and a steroid injection. They said that it was seasonal asthma - whatever it was, it was scary not being able to breathe. I was so nervous that Hadley was having the same trouble, but hers was just her cold and they couldn't do anything for her except let it run it's course. So my poor family had much more drama than they ever expected with our visit. Needless to say, Kapra, Kody and Kord will probably be waiting a long time before they have kids. Mom was crying as we were packing the babies up after 5 eventful days, but I'm sure she and the rest of the family took a long, much needed nap after we left. :) Thank you Mom, Dad, Kapra, Kody and Kord for all of your help. We love you!!!
