16 Months... Tomorrow

Doesn't that smile just say I'm up to trouble
(which by the way he was causing trouble when I took this picture)
Yes he has another ear infection. That makes 5 ear infections in 3 months.
Love those baby blues
Just wanted to put a picture of our sweet little girl in here
He loves cheeseburgers and he doesn't want any baby bites he wants the whole cheeseburger.

Well our smiley little boy is 16 months already. He still always has a smile on his face but he has become our little destroyer. He will go from room to room completely destroying it before he moves on to the next room. A list of the things he has done before I forget: chicken noodle soup on the carpet and chairs, shampoo in the carpet, crayons on a chair and dresser, takes his pants and diaper off while in his crib and many more things I won't bore you with. When I try to get him in trouble for making a mess he looks up at me with those big blue eyes and that sweet smile and I just melt. Besides making our house a mess 24/7 he loves cars and playing with his big sister. He definitely keeps me on my toes but I wouldn't trade him for anything.

Happy Valentine's Day!


Opening up Valentine's gifts
Ella received a Princess book and candy. Hudson got his own car keys (since he loves our car keys) and candy.
Ella using Hudson's present to "drive". They set up chairs in the living room and pretended they were in a car.
Both enjoying Ella's present.

Playing in a basket


The kids were playing in Ella's room but they were being too quite. Which usually is not a good thing. So we went to check on them and they were sitting in the toy basket like this. They are so sweet.

Riding Trikes

Hudson pushing Ella

Enjoying the 70 degree February day. Ella was riding her tricycle and Hudson wanted to try to ride. Ella tried to teach him how to pedal but his legs weren't quite long enough. So being a good big sis she pushed him around and then he wanted to push her around.

We're Off to See the Wizard

Ella, Dorothy and Glenda
The Scarecrow and Tin Man (or as Ella calls him "Robot Man")
Our little Flower Munchkin
The only time Hudson wasn't being carried was when he went down the slides

Our little Poser

Ella loves the movie Wizard of Oz. So we saw that they were having an exhibit at Crown Center and had to take the kids. When we told Ella that we were going she wanted us all to dress up. She of course wanted to be Dorothy, Daddy the scarecrow, Hudson Toto and Mommy as Glenda. But we decided against that, Thankfully.
As soon as we got there they were both scared. Ella was scared of the witch and all the statues because she thought they were real. Once we explained to Ella that they weren't real she was still a little scared but actually started to enjoy seeing all the things from the movie. Hudson didn't like it much besides the slide. By the time we were leaving Ella was wishing they were all real so she could meet them.

Afterwards we went to the Crayola Store which Hudson loved coloring. Then since the weather was so nice we went outside to see all the fountains.

Austin's Star Wars Birthday Party

All the boys dressed up as storm troopers.
Hudson loved playing with the balloons
Alex & Ella dancing

Austin's 6th Birthday!

The boys were too interested in playing games so I couldn't get any pictures of them before my battery went dead. But Ella had fun dancing with Alex and Hudson had fun playing with the balloons.

Brother's & Sister's

Hudson tackled Ella and then sat on her and bounced up and down.
Hudson giving Ella hugs.
Hudson loves playing with Ella and he especially loves playing with her toys.
Hudson had on Ella's sunglasses, so she wanted to model his sunglasses. She loves to pose.
