Happy Times
I keep expecting things to get a little rough around here but amazingly the transition to 3 little boys has been so much smoother than I ever thought possible! I'm sure in a matter of months I'll be eating my words but right now life is sweet and I feel so blessed to have such a happy, fun, little family. Hudson went for his 2 week checkup and weighed 7lbs. 11oz. so he's almost gained 1 pound in no time! As happy as I am to hear he's healthy and growing, it makes me sad to think he's already almost 8lbs. I adore this newborn time so I hate to see it pass by so quickly! I'm really trying to savor every second because I know all too soon we'll barely be able to remember what it was like in the beginning as a family of 5!
At two weeks, Hudson eats every 2-3 hours and I don't think has ever missed a meal! Even during the night, he wakes up to eat but quickly goes back to sleep in his bassinet. I think he's spent more time in the bassinet in his little life than Carter and Cooper put together! He's starting to have longer and more frequent wakeful times and we are really enjoying loving on him then! He truly has been the sweetest and most perfect little addition to our family.
Ashley came to hang out with us last Saturday and watch the Carolina game, which is usually a big "no no" because she and Jamey together watching games has been unlucky in the past. Thankfully the unlucky streak was broken as the Heels actually won!
Cooper still really loves to hold Hudson and asks to do so all the time! It's funny to me because Hudson will start to get upset and it doesn't bother Cooper in the least bit - he'll actually get mad at me when I try to take him away to make him happier!

Long Overdue
I don't think I've mentioned how Cooper was instantly a "big boy" in my eyes as soon as Hudson was born. The first time I put a diaper on him for bedtime after coming home from the hospital I just couldn't believe how big he is and how I could've missed that he'd been this way for a while! I guess the Lord knows what he's doing by letting me think Coop was still my baby at 3 years old or else I would never stop having babies!
This little guy has adjusted to being a big brother so well that it absolutely blows me away. He is sweet and gentle with Hudson and is so interested in helping with him. He'd rather watch his brother sleep or hold him over watching Max and Ruby or any other show, and that's a BIG deal for anyone who knows just how much he loves TV!
Cooper loves playing with all of Carter's things lately and has quickly become the best "driver" on the street. He loves driving the Gator and does great even in the fast gear! Carter's Leapster is also a new favorite and it's so cute watching him draw and play games on it.
It's been a long time coming but we finally moved Cooper to Carter's room yesterday and so far so good! Mornings come a little earlier and naps have been a little shorter but if that's the worst of it I'd say it's going pretty well! We have a monitor in the room more for our sake than theirs and Jamey and I have enjoyed our little sneak peek into their room! Last night, Cooper kept telling Carter good night and that he loved him for probably 30 minutes after Carter was long asleep but Cooper sure was cute and persistent!

Happy Halloween
The giraffe, policeman, and cow were ready for some trick or treating action!
I love this one...if you're a kid, you trick or treat in the candy bin on the left of the picture but if you're a grown-up have a Bud Light from the rail!
It's nice to have a police escort sometimes!
Pooped from all that work.
Sweet feet
Even if they aren't real I love smiles at this age!
Sad to say he's looking chunky already but he is in this one for sure!
Baby yawns are pretty sweet too!
Trying their best to make some chaos out of Daddy's neat leaf pile!
This one is truly all...
B O Y!
This is how we were all sitting the other night when Jamey came home. To say they love Hudson would be quite an understatement!
Sweet big brother kisses.
He has the "deer in headlights" look a lot these days!
As you can see, we're still working on the jaundice!
