CRAWLING....sort of :)

crawl: a slow mode of locomotion on hands and knees or dragging the body

Hudson began working on this at the beach last week when he was trying to keep up with his buddy Owen. (You'll see pics of them later in a post about the beach). We are so proud of him. He is exactly 8.5 months old today, and he is on the move for the first time as you'll see below in the video:



As you can imagine this is SO fun for us, but at the same time it amazes me that he is already 8.5 months old and learning to move around by himself. This is just one of the million moments I know I will have where I am proud of his developing independence, but bittersweet about not being needed as much as I was before. They DO grow up SO fast. I know he's still a baby, but honestly it's so crazy how fast time has gone by so far.

Dad's Day Came Early

Me and Mommy surprised Daddy with an early Father's Day surprise. I got daddy some sweet supplies for our trip to the beach, and Mommy got him his favorite breakfast and dessert. She also helped me make that cool sign you see behind us. As another early Father's day gift, I have been saying the words "dadadadadadada" lately. He really really likes it, so I humor him every now and then. Mommy must really love daddy because she put in a lot of hard work to help me get this together for him. Thanks Mommy.

Fish heads Fish heads, roly poly Fish heads!

Mom and Dad bought a bike seat for me, and Aunt April let us borrow Brice's infant bike helmet. It has 3 different covers. On my first bike ride, I was a fish!!! (You'll have to stay tuned to see what other creatures I can turn into!) Check me out:

Moving a Little Fast

This is Hudson and Zoe. They switched between pushing each other and squeezing eachother's faces to kissing :) It was so funny. Hudson was a pretty aggressive little guy when it came to the kissing! Watch OUT ladies!!
