Long Past Due

So, I am a bit of a blog stalker, I'll admit it. I love to check and recheck the blogs of people I love, and admire, and I get stinkin' irritated when they don't update... Then I look at my blogs and feel woefully ashamed.

To remedy this I am updating, and will update more often. (How many times have I promised you this?)

October-

21st- 31st: Hudson turned 4! I can hardly believe that I have such a big boy! Grandpa and Grandma Griffin came to visit and we had a great time. That Saturday, Hudson had his birthday party at the bowling alley with his friends. For Halloween Hudson was a giraffe. I figured it was the last year I could pick something out that is cute before he'll want monsters or something. But he also got a skelton Hoodie from Walmart, and took great delight in running through the store terrorizing the shoppers, while I tried to chase him, laughing so hard I had to stop every few feet so I wouldn't lose bladder control. He got tons of candy and had a lot of fun

November- Hudson is doing really well in Head Start. He got terrific scores on his LAP tests, and gets along well with his friends. He loves his Teachers. I get to go almost every friday to volunteer in his classroom and I enjoy myself alot.

For Thanksgiving we got to travel to see my grandma in Idaho. We stayed at my cousin's house and had a fantastic time there. Hudson did really well on the long drive. His favorite part was seeing the "ghost on the mountain" which is really "Our lady of the Mountain," a huge statue on the mountain in Butte, MT. At night it is all lit up. On the way home, Hudson looked out of his window and shouted, "She waved at me!!!" It was cute

December: So far. Hudson is really excited to be a big brother in April. We have finally made the announcement to all our friends and family, and Hudson couldn't be more eager to help when his brother is born. I am nervous, but I know things will work out... They always do. We will have to come up with a way to have the two boys share a room, and that will be interesting. We'll have to see how it goes.

Pictures are to come, as soon as I can manage. :)
