The Explosion

When you see a title like "The Explosion" on a blog that features majority baby stuff, what comes to mind???? Great, so I don't have to elaborate too much. I got a call at work at around 1pm today that started like this:

Me: "Hey, how's it going?"
Steph: "You...will...not believe what just happened."
Me: "What?"
Steph: "I just spent the last hour cleaning up Hudson, myself, the changing table, the floor, my clothes...it just wouldn't stop coming out."
Me: "aaahahahahhaahaahhah" (it's ok that I laughed, she thought it was funny too)

Evidently, Hudson pooed so much that he wore himself out. Steph said he was recovering in his crib when she called - down for a nap.

I don't know exactly why baby poo is so funny (maybe because I wasn't there to clean it up), but I got the best laugh at work. I think it was the Lord's comedic relief to a trying day at work.

Anyway, that's all we've got for now. After work, I took Steph and Hudson out to Empire Cafe for some omelette and pizza. Hudson didn't like his pizza, so I ate it for him. It's 8:36pm as I write this and Hudson has already been down for about 30 minutes, and without too much trouble. I'm pretty excited to get in bed at 9pm. Parenthood has officially set in.

Scottsdale getaway

We had a short but sweet time in AZ this past weekend! Jason surprised me and Hudson with plane tickets to Scottsdale for the weekend. He-however, is still there at his annual training for Deloitte. We flew out of Houston Friday afternoon and arrived in time for dinner at the resort. Hudson did so well on the plane ride!

Scottsdale was beautiful and the weather was perfect. It's definitely a tourist town with tons of shopping areas, resorts, and golf courses. It was nice to get out of Houston!

{eating by the golf course friday night. the sunset was gorgeous and the weather crisp.}



{we obviously thought he looked pretty darn cute in his hat. you might say we are obsessed.}

{dinner at the greene house. it was amazing food and a really cool atmosphere.
i had sliders (kobe beef!) with white truffle parmesan & chive fries. jason enjoyed
a bbq pork tenderloin, mac and cheese, and roasted broccoli. we had spinach and
artichoke fondue with flat bread for an appetizer. ohh it was all sooo good-wish we
had one here!}



Saturday morning we enjoyed hotel breakfast (one my favorite things about vacation). Hudson and I napped while Jason watched football. Then we went to a big outdoor shopping area. Christmas decor was up and it was super fun! They have a killer Nordstrom too =) We explored Scottsdale a bit afterwards. Sunday was Starbucks, time by the pool, and Sprinkles cupcakes!
The trip home was another story and a post for another day. Let's just say I will never fly alone with a baby again!
Thanks sweetie for such a special treat!


{jason really liked this and insisted on taking a picture.}
