I just love this little guy!

He's silly. He's spunky. He's dramatic. He's hilarious. He's sweet. He's a lovable, huggable perfect little brother, our baby boy! Bryce is drawn to "things" in place of his toys. He usually grabs a bucket, a DVD, a box of crackers (or two) or even a can of cooking spray for his afternoon naps and for a car ride! During the day, if he's feeling a little sleepy, he'll lay down in mommy's bed for 10 minutes and reappear once he's refreshed! His blankie and binky are a must have. They travel with him everywhere. Sometimes it's even a struggle to get his blankie long enough to wash! Bryce rocks himself, sometimes like a crazy man...that's his signature comfort move! Every night when daddy and I check on B, I have to say "I just love this little guy!" because I do! I could just squeeze him, especially when he's sleeping so sweetly!

Lego Kids Fest

So much fun, so little time...to blog! We've been keeping busy around here having lots of fun together. A few weeks ago Daddy found the Lego Kids Fest at the IX Center in Cleveland. Since we just dressed as legos for Halloween it was a must do! Hudson was in a mood! Every so often he decides that he wants to be a bad boy! This was one of those days! He purposely did everything he could to misbehave! Thankfully for us the boys seem to be in opposite moods most of the time so we only had one cranky boy to deal with :) Bryce wanted to ride the huge ferris wheel so badly, but covered his face during most of the ride! He's so funny...he's so adventurous, but also the biggest chicken! The biggest hit of the day was the vacuum. By far both boys favorite part! Note to self...wait a couple of years until the next Lego Fest. The boys were too little to sit and build with them.

Love, love, love that Hudson calls Merry Madagascar "Mary Had a Gas Car"!

Polar Bear Fox

To say that Hudson loves animals would be an understatement! The animal encyclopedia is his favorite book in the house and he looks at it all of the time. We always have to tell him what each animal eats and where they live. The food chain is not something that phases him! I was so impressed when he landed on this particular page and said this is a "polar bear fox". I'm surprised he even knew it was a fox, but to relate it to a polar bear when it is in fact an Arctic fox is genius :)

I wanna be bad (Part 2):

Last weekend Hudson had Cocoa Puffs for breakfast (as seen on his face!). He also had a glass of milk to drink. He's been drinking like a big boy without a lid or straw like the kids do in school. He's always so careful and does a great job. On this particular day, either by accident or by bad boy (I'm not sure which), the milk ended up all over the table. That's okay. The mess I can clean; however, as I was cleaning up the floor bad boy decided to rub his hands through the milk. I asked him to stop but he kept doing it anyway. So, I asked "do you want to go to your room?" and he said "YES. Yes, I do. Get me down so I can go to my room!". Wow! So off to his room he went. After 10 minutes I went to check on him. Hudson closed himself in his bedroom and when I opened his door he was sitting in his laundry basket playing with his shark. At this point I thought I would "talk" to him about his behavior. I asked him if he wanted to come out, but NOPE, he said he wanted to stay in his room because he's bad! So, in his room he stayed!

I wanna be bad (Part 1):

These faces just say it all!! Hudson's new "thing" is that he wants to be a bad boy. It's very hard to discipline a boy who is trying to be bad. Seriously, getting in trouble is the goal! I must admit while it can be frustrating at times, Hudson is just too sweet to be bad! His back talk is what really gets him in trouble the most. His back talk usually consists of him repeating what you just said but with a "NO or I don't want to..." in front of it. Ex. Mommy: Hudson, please get your coat. Hudson: I don't want to get my coat. Mommy: Okay, Hudson. But it's cold outside. Hudson: It's not cold outside...you get the picture :)

Boys will be Boys!

I love these bear jammies! They look so warm, soft, and cozy! B picked them out at Kohl's a couple of weeks ago (when Hudson was being difficult and didn't want any jammies, lol)! Since B was so excited about his we got Hudson the coordinating set! They look so adorable when they wear them at the same time! Yes, it's the little things that make me happy ;)...

Playtime sure is when fun when you have a friend/brother so close in age! The boys have discovered that they can turn the couch into a sliding board...of course they have to wrestle too! Hudson's idea of playing with Bryce always involved Hudson holding Bryce down or laying on top of him. Bryce hates this but doesn't stick up for himself...yet! We always have to "remove" Hudson from B's body and then they pick up right where they left off! Hudson's usually laughing hysterically and B's usually the silly one when they play. Bryce will fall (on purpose) and rub his "bee-boo's" for a good laugh!

Guess who has the biggest sweet tooth of them all?!
