A Cat in the Hat kind of day

Daddy planned on working in the yard for most of the day, so Hudson and I went shopping for party supplies for his upcoming bash! Since I spent most of the day coordinating things in "The Cat in the Hat" colors, I found it very appropriate to read him the story before his bath this evening. It's actually a pretty long story and Brian and I are amazed that Hudson will sit for the entire thing. He's so adorable because sometimes he'll turn to watch my face as I read and he'll smile and turn back to the book. Other times he looks as if he's concentrating on the words I am saying and sometimes he'll scratch the pictures as if to see what things feel like! Hopefully he is very familiar with "The Cat in the Hat" and loves his birthday party because lots and lots of planning has gone into it already :)
*One side note: Where'd he get that beautiful skin tone? I am sooo jealous!
