These boots are made for walking....

While doing some back to school shopping last week, Nana bought Hudson his first pair of rain boots. Although we have not seen much rain during the day since they were purchased, they have been worn pretty much every hour since he has owned them. In my attempts to get him to wear sandals in this summer weather, he replies with "Maybe it is a good idea in case it rains so I can jump in puddles and my feet don't get wet.....OKAY?". So here we are at the grocery store with the boots and umbrella juse in case. Everything is "maybe a good idea" or "maybe not a good idea". He is the king of negotiating now...wonder where he gets that from?

I did not set up this picture. Either he is taking an interest in baseball or he is preparing himself for the next sibling tackle. Jack now makes a growling/screaming noise sometimes when Hudson gets a little too close to him. I am hoping to catch it on video on of these days!

We took Hudson to his first carnival this weekend. At first he wanted to check out the rides, and before long he was asking to go on the "big" ones.

We have finally had a break in the hot weather and got out to the park this week. Jack will sit in a swing as long as we let him. He loves it.
