This Past (Month)…whoops

003

I’ll risk looking yucky in this picture to show one of the greatest moments of my life! Audrey loved visiting us in the hospital.

006

Audrey is quite taken with Hudson…if you can’t tell

009 

Grandma Rogers came for a week after Hudson was born. We loved having her here…she helped me more than she knows! She got up with Audrey every morning and made me realize that I wasn’t crazy…just a mom. (She also made me realize that I don’t clean very well!) Audrey was her constant shadow! Thanks so much for everything mom, we already miss you!

Mason’s sister Tara made this amazing quilt for Hudson! She’s pretty cool…she also made a comforter for Audrey’s bed…pics later.

The first bath…he was not a fan

We turned this window…

…and when I say “we” I mean Mason and his mom…

…into these beautiful french doors. And speaking of Mason’s mom….she came after my mom left and stayed for 3 weeks! She did so much around our house! Not only did she help cook, clean and do laundry…she also did the french doors, repaired and painted ceilings, took me shopping, made necklaces and entertained Audrey till I’m sure she wanted to scream!  Audrey never left her side the entire time she was here! (Until the boys came, that is). I appreciate so much everything that she did for me! She got up with Audrey every morning…pretty sure I never got up before 9:30 the whole time she was here! Thanks so much Thelma!! We will miss you so much! Hopefully I’ll have some pics later.

Audrey spent a lot of time outside…and naked…it’s too darn hot to not play in the water and a swim suit is just a waste of time!

029

These punks (Mason’s nephews Dallin and Soda) came with Mason’s dad to pick up his mom.  We are so glad they came, we had a ton of fun with them…although I’m sure they couldn’t wait to get out of Memphis and on their way to Detroit to see where Eminem lived.

030

Somehow they got tricked into mowing our law (ha).  It’s a huge lawn…poor boys!

Audrey called Soda “Coco”…and Dallin, “friend”…I thought that was pretty funny.  She LOVED having the boys here…she was in heaven!  Audrey loved snuggling up to them and playing with their hair.

Here’s a sneak peak of Hudson’s announcement.

That's it. I'm buying my plane tickets today. Audrey looks so grown up and I have never even seen Hudson!! Glad you had fun with the punks.

Those pictures of Audrey and Hudson are so cute. Aren't moms the greatest? I wouldn't have survived without our moms. Come visit soon!
