parade and picnics...

the past week was sure an eventful one! now that the weather is finally warmer, it's been so nice to get outside and do some new things. last weekend, we celebrated nick's graduation from college and leanne's 21st birthday so you'll notice some of those pics in the slideshow. we also made a visit to a smith family friend's farm where hudson got to see some neat farm animals. although i think his favorite part was sitting on the big tractor and playing in the canoe with his cousins. greyson was sound asleep during all the excitement. on memorial day, we walked down to the north canton parade in the morning which was fun. he especially loved seeing all the firetrucks! again, greyson was fast asleep during the parade!

you be the judge...

Hudson ~ 8 weeks............. Greyson ~ 8 weeks

Hi Everybody!

The infamous question that everyone always asks sounds something like this…“does Greyson look anything like Hudson did when he was a baby?” We thought we’d post two pictures of the boys, each at 8 weeks, wearing the same outfit and YOU be the judge!

All is well at our home! Greyson continues to be great and is growing like a champ. He’s 8 weeks old and about a week ago he was weighing in at 10 lbs. 8 oz. He is becoming so expressive and especially loves the sound of Mommy’s voice. He’s also so strong and loves to stand up on his “own”. He has always been and continues to be such a wonderful baby and is very low-maintenance. Ever since we brought him home from the hospital he only woke up once during the night and the last couple weeks he’s been sleeping all the way through! Hudson was a good sleeper like this too, but we didn’t think we’d get this lucky twice! We’re definitely grateful for that!

Hudson is such a wonderful big brother and still loves to be a helper around the house. He’s really talking a lot and continues to pick up on new words everyday. He loves to draw, color pictures, play with his trucks, and play with puzzles. He’s doing great at learning the letters of the alphabet and it’s so fun to be out in public and see him pointing out the letters he knows! Now that the weather is nice (finally!) he loves to be outside and mow the lawn, go on walks, and sweep the porch. He’d live out there if we let him! He’s getting so grown up and it just keeps getting better and better! God is soooooo good!
