Our Little Hoopster

Wesley got a basketball hoop for Christmas. He loves to dunk the ball. Here he is showing off some of his signature moves.

Christmas Memories

We had a wonderful Christmas this year. It was great spending quality time with our families and it was also fun watching Wesley's face when he came down the stairs and saw all the presents under the tree. He is at such a fun age right now. Addie did great just sitting there looking cute. She managed to be in her Christmas outfit for a whole 30 minutes before we had a blow-out, which required a bath and an outfit change. I love our two little munchkins. They sure keep us on our toes. :)

2010 Christmas Card

Addilyn's Birth Announcement

Naughty or Nice?

Both Wes and Addie got their time in on the Big Guy's lap and gave him their best smile and told him that they had been good all year. Addie is the lucky one... she has only had to be good for a month. Poor Wes... he had the whole 12 months to account for.

At first Wes was only comfortable sitting for a picture with Santa's elf, but then he decided it wouldn't be so bad sitting on Santa's lap if the elf was right next to him. As you can tell by his smile, he was a little leery. He made Mommy happy though since I was able to get a picture in.

Addie's One Month Old!

Whew! Where has the time gone? Our baby girl has started to smile and coo at us. Here are some of my favorite pictures of her in our little one month photo shoot.

Deck the Halls

Wesley really got into the decorating part this year. I enjoyed watching him get excited as he pointed out all of the different ornaments. The most special moment for me was when I got to watch him hang the jeweled kitty ornament on the tree. That ornament was my grandma's and every year I helped decorate her tree. I always made sure that I was the one to put that kitty ornament on.

Christmas Tree Hunt 2010

This year we left a fellow family member with a babysitter so that she wouldn't get cold while we searched for our Christmas tree. However, from here on out I hope we have all family members present for this special event. It just didn't feel quite right without her, but I think she was happy that she stayed nice and toasty.

Here is the Hudson 2010 Christmas tree!

Wesley was a fan of the free hot chocolate back at the barn when we were all done. He's like his dad if he liked the fact that it was free and if he's like his mommy he liked the chocolate part.

Kisses... (Most of the Time)

Wesley still likes to give Addie lots of kisses on her forehead. That doesn't mean that our new addition hasn't affected him though. When Addie was two weeks old, Wesley had a really rough three days. After that little transition period he seemed to be back to his old self and I thought we were in the clear. However, that only lasted about another week. Then I believe he decided to enter the terrible two's. I'm not used to this new Wesley... I'm hoping that he gets out of this stage as quick as possible so that I don't go completely crazy.

Sleepy Addie

Daddy gets his time in with baby girl in the Lazy Boy, just like he did with Wes. I think she likes it.

Addie's 3 Week Check-Up

This appointment was supposed to be Addie's 2 week check-up, but it took place one day before she turned 3 weeks old so I think it is more appropriate to call it her 3 week check-up. Our big girl weighed in at 8 lbs., 5 oz. (52nd percentile) and was 20.75 inches long (75th percentile). She is filling out nicely. :) I also must comment on how I think I declared a little too early as to how I thought she was going to have curly hair. It appears to be pretty straight these days. Maybe it will end up with some wave like Wesley's...

Cute Little Addie

I may not have as many onesies with cute sayings for Addie as I did for Wes, but the girl is still styling with adorable little outfits. :)

Family of Four

Here is our first official "family of four" picture!

Schrock Family Pictures

My brother and sister-in-law were in town over the weekend, so we took the opportunity to quick get an updated Schrock family picture. Wes was being a total cheeseball and his face makes me crack up every time I look at these pics. I love it!

Addie = 1 Week Old

Addie and I had fun with her one week old photo shoot. She was a sweet little model if I do say so myself. :)

Decisions, Decisions...

Christmas List 2010

Day after day Wesley loves to browse through all the toy catalogs we've received in the mail lately. It is so cute. :)

Germs...

The Hudson household has been a little crazy lately, and surprisingly it isn't because of Addilyn. Ben and Wes caught a virus and that means we've had to keep Addie away from them so that she doesn't catch it. This is not a fun task, since Wes absolutely adores her (so far). He got extremely upset when we wouldn't let her kiss her head anymore. He constantly wants to run over to the pack 'n play and point and say, "Addie, Addie." He also thinks she is super funny. He loves looking at her and always laughs at her faces. I'm hoping the boys get healthy soon.

Addilyn Marie

Baby girl finally has a name... Addilyn Marie!

Blessed!

"Guess what? I'm a BIG brother!"

Baby girl Hudson has arrived. She chose to be fashionably late, because that's the way we roll around here. She was born on Wednesday, November 10th at 2:40pm and weighs 6 lbs, 13 oz. and is 20 inches long. Her hair is currently dark blonde (the same color that Wes had when he was born) and it appears that she may have her mommy's curls. We haven't named her yet, but I'm sure we will have that news to share soon. :)

39 Weeks

Dragon on a Sugar High

I seriously thought Wes would trick-or-treat at a couple of houses and then be ready to go home. Nope... The kid thought trick-or-treating was the coolest thing ever. He even said a very quiet, "trick-or-treat" and "thank you." His cousin, Kyler, came over to join us in the festivities. When the boys were done they spread their loot across the living room floor. I so remember doing the same exact thing when I was younger. :) We let Wes have a few pieces of his candy and voila!!! The boy started jumping and rolling all over the couch. No joke! I've never seen him on a sugar high before. It was pretty funny. :)

"So, when do you think our moms will stop taking pictures and let us actually start trick-or-treating?

Here are some pics from our costume photoshoot that we did earlier in the day. A big thank you goes out to Wesley's Uncle Troy and Aunt Calee for getting him the most adorable dragon costume ever! :)

The Great Pumpkin 2010

Wesley was in awe at the pumpkin patch this year. He ran around saying, "Ohhhhhhh." It was so cute. Every time he walks outside our house and remembers that he has his very own pumpkins he gets so excited.

A few days later we carved it up! I just love how a pumpkin seed ended up getting stuck to his cheek. We finished out the night by watching Charlie Brown's Great Pumpkin. Wes thought Snoopy was hilarious when he was on top of his dog house pretending to fly a plane. He couldn't stop laughing. :)

Pinkified

Wesley's old room has been pinkified! Less than two weeks to go until our due date and boy oh boy am I to the REALLY uncomfortable stage. :)
