Oh my goodness!

Yes...I know I haven't posted anything since November 8th.  Free time seems to be a precious commodity around here lately.  I have snagged a few quiet minutes right now while Hudson is looking at his books.
So...to sum up the last three weeks, here are a few pictures!
Dumping his pumpkin's guts

Turned around for 20 seconds to pick up some sticks, and this is what I found.
Soaked from his neck down.

At the TSCRA Ranch Gathering.  Don't know if Santa can fit this in his sack.

Tailgating for the A&M/Nebraska game.  Showing Miss Avery his wheels.

The last couple of weeks have been filled with Juice Plus+, traveling for Thanksgiving, and getting ready to move on December 17th.  We had a great Thanksgiving in Jacksboro and Wortham. Hudson got his first really bad boo boo.  He gashed his chin on the fireplace in Jacksboro.  It probably could have used a couple of stitches, but once we saw that a butterfly bandage would hold it together ok, we decided to skip the trauma of the ER for Hudson.  It has already started to heal up just fine with lots Bio Oil, Neosporin, and extra Juice Plus+. 
Asleep after getting his boo boo all fixed (grilled cheese in hand)

Swinging with Papa T. in Jacksboro

Loved all the "stars!" on the tree in Wortham


It actually got cold here for a couple of days, and Hudson loves to bundle up and play outside.

This week we have been trying to get everything in line for moving to our new home on the 17th.  Though I am more than ready to get out to our new place, I am really dreading the actual moving part.  I hate packing!  There is just no fun in it....I guess because I have done it so many times already.  This move will not be nearly as hard as our last one from Pleasanton to College Station.  This time we are just going 8 miles, but still....
Last night between our "move planning", Hudson and Daddy found some time to wrestle.

I LOVE these boys

Hudson has really been talking the last couple of days.  He always jabbers and has never really been a quiet boy, but we have noticed lots of new words coming  from him just since we got home from our Thanksgiving travels.  Some of his new words are, "Lemon, grapes, tractor, and hush."  Yes, hush.  I am really going to have to start watching myself because he has really started to repeat things.  Just today we were driving with his window down and he heard a crow.  Out of no where he says, "Bird! Caw caw caw!!" and he sounded just like the crow he heard outside!  His other words include, "bird, stars, moon, brown, bus, bath, mama, daddy, Dus, ice, get down, banana, strawberries, and baby."  We are really working on, "Thank you and Please".
