Summer Time Fun

Hudson got a sandbox.  We are practicing for our upcoming beach trip.  Think the sand will be a hit.  Did you know sand crawled inside babies clothes and hides in the all sorts of places.  It even makes it way inside of socks.  Its worth it right.....as long as baby is happy, smiling and having fun that is until mom is trying to find all the hiding sand. 

Playing with our new sprinkler.  Yes Hudson thought it would be so much fun to spray mom.

First trip to the pool for the year.  Hudson and his dad had a ball.  I had fun watching.  I didn't swim.  Strangest thing happened I have out grown all my swimsuits.  

I love this picture....father/son making the same face and making boat noises

Dare devil. 

Loves to play ball. 

Handsfree corn.  Hudson is so silly.  Loves attention.  Notice the two cups.  He couldn't decide between strawberry or chocolate milk.  So he drank both. 

I love this close up picture.  Hudson is eating a peach.  Loves fruit. 

Russ and I purchased a new camera last night.  We do not see much difference in it than the one we have and the one we purchased last night.  Some pictures on here are from both cameras.  Can you tell a difference?  Anyone with any advice, experience, success and/or disappointments.  I'm looking for real live feedback from people who have used and been happy with their camera...not a sales person.  I don't want to spend a lot or become a professional photographer (we have a great one I love) but I would love to be a "mom photographer". 

Can you believe 2 blogs in one month?  Thanks to Memorial Day (extra day off work), sacrifice of sleep I was able to accomplish all of this ;) 

Seriously.........

Where does the time go?  I was warned of this time issue when I was pregnant with Hudson but its something you just can not grasp until you are fully the joys of parenting.  I kept thinking I had just blogged and then I looked...haha that was 3 weeks ago.  Then I made an attempt last night.  Worked on it for whole hour and well its lost in computer space because I can't find it anywhere.  Oh joy!!!!!!!!!!!  I gave up an hour sleep to blog and then it was a waste.  That is terrible to an exhausted pregnant momma.
We are still super busy in the Foster house chasing, playing and loving on Hudson.  I can not get over how fast the past 14 months have flown.

This is Hudson at my mom's surprise birthday party.  He stole the show eating his first piece of corn on the cob.  Boy did he love it. 

An attmept at a Mother/Son photo in honor of Mother's Day.  Yes I am aware my belly is WAY out there. 

We had a sweet new addition in the family on May 12, 2011.  We will let you read all about her on her mommy's blog.  http://jaredandallisonwesley.blogspot.com/

Welcome to the world Addison.  We love you!!!!!  Here is Hudson meeting Addison for the first time.  I know I am a little bias but he is so sweet with her.  Hudson yells baby rubs on her leg or shoulder smiles and runs off. 

I had a doctor's appointment Monday May 16th.  We finally found out what baby is.  I love going to the doctor and hearing the heartbeat.  Love getting snap shots of baby although we only get 3 the WHOLE pregnancy.  Just doesn't seem like enough.  Incase you haven't heard its............a..................GIRL!!!! 

We are shocked.  We just assumed baby was another boy.  All we prayed for was health the sex never mattered.  This is a picture of her profile just turn your head a little.  Can't wait to meet her.  Appointment went well.  Her heart rate was 173, she is measuring 5 days large and 9 oz. 

Now we just have to get this sweet girl named.
