Bring on the Cereal

We tried Hudson on Rice Cereal today. Ella my little helper was so excited that she was able to feed him. She got a little frustrated because he kept grabbing the spoon but she eventually tried to hold his hand down as you can see in the picture. He really seemed to like it.

We are the CHAMPIONS!

#1 KU

2008 National Champs

While watching the game John was getting a little into it and we had let Ella stay up too watch just the first couple of minutes. She was talking to the T.V. just like daddy. She would say things like "Come, on KU", "I can't believe they missed it", "Oh, My goodness" and then of course "Go KU, Go Jayhawks." It was pretty funny watching her get so into the game like her daddy. Later when John went to check on her, he told her that KU was winning and she said "thanks daddy." She was excited this morning when she found out that KU had won. It was a great game.

5 Months

Yep he is 5 months already. He is still my happy little smiling guy. He has started sitting up for longer periods of time, although he is still a little wobbly and he has found his feet and he loves to pull his socks off. He still loves his sister and has found that he also loves to pull her hair. Hudson is such a sweet little baby.

Bumbo Seat

I left Hudson in his Bumbo seat, walked down the hall gave Ella a drink and came back and this is how I found him.

Happy Easter 2008!

Taking it slow.
Yeah I found an egg!

"Orange, I thought this egg was pink."
Ella loved riding on the horse

We spent Easter this year in Hutch. Ella always has a good time down there playing with all of her cousins. It was a little cold for the Easter Egg Hunt but the kids didn't seem to mind. Ella was a little picky with her eggs she only wanted pink or purple eggs. Eventually I think she didn't care since she heard they were filled with candy. She was quite slow on finding the eggs that the other girls started helping her fill her basket. Hudson enjoyed the egg hunt by taking a short little nap. During dinner Hudson was so ready to eat that he tried to put anything in his mouth for him the closest thing was a dinner plate. It is always great spending time with the family.

Fireworks at the end of the show

As part of Ella's birthday we got her tickets to the Princess show Disney on Ice. She dressed up as Snow White. She had a lot of fun and everytime a new Princess would come out she would say either "I have that movie", or "I've seen that movie." It was so sweet to watch and listen to how excited she got everytime a Princess would start singing or dancing. Surprisingly she got the most excited when Mulan came out and started singing and dancing. There was a fire breathing dragon that came out and scared Ella and some of the other kids around us. Thankfully Ella didn't understand that the souvenirs were for sale and so she didn't ask for anything. Which was nice since everything was so expensive. She had a lot of fun but was ready to go home when the show was over.
