Happy Halloween!

Well we started off the day with a little lion and Buzz Lightyear but it got way too hot for my little lion and Mr. Lightyear decided around three o'clock that a superhero would be much more fun. Thankfully, my sweet neighbor came to the rescue and dressed the boys up as Batman. Hudson thought he was something else. He got really into his character and saved people all night long. It helped that one of his best friends was Bat Girl:) He has already decided that next year he will be superman and she will be supergirl. We went on our annual neighborhood haywagon ride while we trick or treated. We had a great time and are all enjoying lots of candy!

2009 SC State Fair

Deep Fried Oreos, Feeding the goats, Watching the Pig Races, and Lots of Fun People Watching...

We spent the day at the SC State Fair on Friday and all had SO MUCH FUN. It was the first year we have gotten Hudson a wrist band enabling him to ride as many rides as he wanted. The child has no fear and wanted to ride everything and I think he did ride everything he was tall enough for, his favorites several times. Tyler didn't get to do too much this year but he had fun hanging out with us and watching all the people and animals. Although he did get a really big scare from a cow mooing unexpectedly when we were right next to him. It's the first time I can remember having a cold day at the fair. It was real fall weather! Can't wait to go back next year and Tyler can't wait to join Hudson on those rides!

Picnic at the Park

Tyler at 14 months

Oh, how did my sweet baby grow so fast?! Tyler is doing great at 14 months. He continues to be my laid back quiet serious little guy. So different than Hudson at this age. His favorite things right now are snuggling, playing with cars, looking at books, and BALLS! He loves to be held and I spend a lot of time with him on my hip or hanging on to my legs. He can definitely be a little mischievous- he loves emptying book shelves and putting things into and taking things out of the trash can. All of the kitchen cabinets have locks on them and if you leave the bathroom door open he will unroll the entire roll of toilet paper and play in the toilet. When he knows he's been caught, he has an adorable sneaky smile.
He still loves to eat and is sleeping good. We're still hanging on to two naps a day most days unless we're at church. Most nights he sleeps from about 7:30 until 7:00.
Just this past week of so he has gotten very comfortable standing on his own and is starting to take a couple steps here and there. I think he'll be walking in the next couple of weeks. We sure do love our sweet Ty!

One of His Favorite Things...

First Day of Preschool

My sweet Hudson started preschool for the first time this morning. He will be going on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 9-12. He was super excited about going and was just fine when we left him. One little hug and we were out the door:) I sure do miss my little man this morning and I can't wait to pick him up and hear all about his day!

Happy Birthday Tyler!

Pennsylvania

Sea World

Disney World

The boys and I spent a week with Eric in Orlando while he was there to coach a volleyball team. It was fun to spend the week with him and get to know some of his players and parents better. Eric only had to coach half the day so we got to spend the other half of the day playing in Orlando. We went to the pool a lot, went shopping and eating out and went to Disney World and Sea World. It was REALLY hot at Disney World but we had a good time. The look on Hudson's face when he got to meet Mickey Mouse was priceless and something I hope I'll never forget. He is still talking about it. There is truly something a little magical for little kids at Disney World.
