Waterboy

No, I'm not talking about the Adam Sandler movie, Waterboy, but my little Hudson. Hudson loves anything about water. So, last week we went to the Splash Park in Rogers. It took him about 5-10 minutes to get comfortable after we got there. Then, he started playing and you would have thought he was one of the big boys out there. It is so fun to watch him get more & more independent. He does love staying close to Momma, too, which I don't always mind!!









Last week, we went to my sister's house for a little backyard water party. She had the kiddos a pool to swim in, the pirate ship water table, and the hose going. The pool was a little cool but the boys love to play in anything water. Hudson especially liked the water hose. My Mom was there and she had fun in the water hose, too, but I promised not to put any pics of us girls in our swimsuits :-) on the blog.

Memorial Day Weekend


We had a Great time over Memorial Day Weekend. Nana, Pa, and Uncle Kolton drove from Oklahoma to spend the weekend with us.
Saturday---We played outside, literally all day (except when Hudson was napping)!! That boy loves being outside.









He loves his new pool. The water was a little too cool for Mommy to get in!!










Playing a game of Ladder-Ball






















Loves running around with Daddy






















Sunday--We went to church and then decided to go to Tulsa and visit the Oklahoma Aquarium. None of us had ever been and thought it would be fun for Hudson. Josh's brother, Austin, and his wife & daughter, Rebecca & Logan, live outside of Tulsa, so they met us at the OK Aquarium.






Hudson is ready to see the fish!!

















Looking at all the clown fish a.k.a Nemo's










Checking out the turtles


















Okay, so Hudson thought the otters were hilarious. He kept watching this one otter swimming in circles and couldn't stop laughing. He is so cute!!


Hudson didn't like the man in the fish tank. He tried waving at Hudson but Hudson didn't know if it was a man or a really big fish.












Taking a break











Nana, Hudson, & Pa looking at the stingrays.









I had to put at least one pic of a shark on here!!





















Pa & Hudson in the shark tunnel. Look at the reflection of Pa & Hudson on the glass....pretty cool.












I love this picture of Aunt Becca & Logan. They are so happy. You can see the love in both their faces.



Oh no, my baby is in the shark cage!! Hudson doesn't care, he has a snack.












Uncle Kolton and Hudson checking out the shark mouth.

















Sitting after the tour of the aquarium. The day isn't over yet.
Uncle Austin looks pretty tired over there.

















After the aquarium, we went to Austin & Rebecca's house for a cookout. Hudson is checking out all of Logan's toys.
Thanks Nana & Pa for the trip to the aquarium and Thanks to Austin & Rebecca for having us all over afterwards.

Monday--Mom came over for a short visit. Hudson learned to give good kisses with Me-Ma around!! We pretty much had a relaxing day at home. Josh played golf and we did happen to get in a little shopping. Monday night Mom watched Hudson so Josh & I could go out to dinner. It is nice to have a date every now & then!! Thanks Mom

StoryTime Fun

Every Thursday morning, Hudson & I make a trip to the Bentonville Library for StoryTime. We were fortunate enough to have Josh come with us a couple of Thursdays ago. To say the least, Hudson loves going to StoryTime. He especially loves the bubbles that Miss Sue Ann (librarian) blows before and after the session. He loves the books as well, but the bubbles are definitely his favorite part. It is a fun time and we get to see my sis, Carrie, and her two boys, Collin & Carter. In some of these pics you can see that he wanted to sit in my sis's lap more than mine :-)

Baby Faith's Baby Shower



A couple of weekends ago I was blessed to help host a baby shower for my sweet friend Nikki at the house. We go to church together, and her & her hubby are in our lifebuilder group. They are having a little girl, Faith (you can see by the onesie)!! We are so excited to meet Faith when she arrives. I know Nikki will be a great Mommy to this sweet little girl.

Thanks to all the girls that helped out from the decorations to the food & cake. If you ever need anything related to party planning

& wedding or baby showers then go to Festivities(http://www.efestivities.com/). Thanks Lori for all the cute decor!!





Cute little Momma-to-Be
