fall photo shoot

I took the camera outside today after naptime to try to get some pictures of Hudson - you'll notice someone still has some bedhead! It isn't easy to get a picture of an 18 month old as he is so quick but here are some attempts....
He LOVES to play in the car in the drive way and pretend he is driving.
A safer choice for cruisin'....thanks Nana for the coupe!
The "uh-oh" face which he pronounces "ah-oh"

Guilty....
He still loves to show off his six pack

One of mom's few pots that mom still has alive
He loves pockets!

"scaring" Uncle Clayton

sneak peek of Evan and Lyndi's wedding

We just got back from Evan and Lyndi's beautiful wedding in St Louis. It was perfect - the weather, rehearsal, reception - everything!!! Apparently we were too busy chasing a wild little monkey around because I ended up with only a few pictures of the wedding but more will follow soon!Playing the piano with Aunt Dana





Nana and second cousin Lucy - these two kissed or hugged every time they passed each other in the house....so, sweet
Nana found the very popular cozy coupe car!

bathtime






After all the splashin' in the mud puddles and big bath was needed.....

TS walk and the Circus!

We had a great weekend with Aunt Liz, Uncle Nick and cousins Brandon and Annika in town. Hudson loved having some kids here all weekend to play. On Saturday, we participated in the Walk against Tuberous Sclerosis for our friend Kierstin. Depsite the really rainy weather, the walk was a huge success and raised more than $41,000! Hudson especially enjoyed the good puddles the rain left and even tried to swim a few times in the swimming pools filled with ice and drinks! You can read more about Kierstin here: http://www.caringbridge.org/visit/kierstindublinske


Then on Saturday night, we went to the Ringling Brothers Circus. Everyone had a great time. Two of the kids enjoyed watching it and the other one enjoyed running up and down the stairs and enjoyed trying to escape through the crowds giggling all the way as we chased him. He did sit there for about half and hour and loved the lights and fireworks. Each time an "event" stopped he would look up and John and me and sign "more" and "please" until it would start again.

We had a fun time with the cousins and look forward to seeing them in Colorado for Christmas. This week we are here for a few days, then are heading to St Louis for Uncle Evan and Aunt Lyndi's wedding!

Cleaning the bowl of hummus to make sure he didn't miss any

Hudson shared his crackers with his friends so decided to eat the hummus with a few spoons....
