The nasty stomach bug has decided to visit us...and I was oh so excited to see it! (sense the sarcasim) Ironically I was just saying to my friend that I hadn't vomited since I was like ten. On Friday night it bit Hudson and left him on Sunday and then on Monday night it bit me!! All day yesterday was miserable but I am thankful to say that we are all better now.
Hudson is into being outside which is very nice when Andy is home but not so nice when I am home all day with him. We have an episode every time it's time to come in and I'm not so sure how to avoid it. I think it's time to invest in an outdoor playground and a sand box...we needed it like...YESTERDAY! Hudson and I went directly across from the creek from our house to the playground and played in their sand box. I know...I have no clue what animals have peed or pooped in their!! haha! I guess we all have to live a little!
In one month we will be on our way to Florida...YAY!! We are going to Disney for a few days and then to the beach for the rest of the time. I am so excited to just get away and I know Hudson will love the beach...it's one HUGE sand box! :0) Well I better get going now...

Where have I been?
"New Post"...did I really just click that button??? Looks like it!
Well...I have been terribly distracted these past months away and I wonder why?!?! Maybe because I have a 19 month old busy busy little guy. I know, no excuse but hey...the important thing is I'm back for today!
Hudson is obviously a different kid from the last time I posted! He is soooo big and not very much a baby anymore at all. He also broke the communication barrier between us and we now carry on very long conversations. He is very verbal and I am loving it! Right now I'm at my mom's and he is eating a bowl of rice crispies in his high chair.
Hudson is very into babies lately and I have been getting the baby "itch" as well!! I always said I would try to get pregnant around June or July but now is sounding good. lol. I guess we will see what the Lord has planned...sometimes we think on similar levels and sometimes I am wayyy off! The thought of having to start all over is daunting to me but I know for sure I do not want to have just one child. I think I still have about 5 more in me! :0)
I have started trying to use a "time out" theory and it seems to be working very well. In our house I have created the "naughty step" (which I stole from an episode of SuperNanny...I love that show!) The other day he had to go on the naughty step three times (this was the first day I introduced it). At first he didn't really comprehend the fact that he had to sit there because he was being punished. The second time he kept getting up and I kept putting him back and explaining to him what he did wrong. By the third time he realized that the ultimate goal was for him to say "sorry" to mommy. So during the one minute he had to sit there he said "sorry" about 50 times...but he didn't get up! It broke my heart hearing him say sorry so many times but it was precious at the same time. I found that the naughty step has introduced the concept of being sorry for something that you did and sometimes he will say sorry and realize he did something wrong without the use of the step...so we will see how long that will last but I found that I really like that idea!
I guess I should get going and help my mom with Hudson...aren't grandmas wonderful!! :0)

Children's Place Sales!!
Well...I have spent the last two days in Children's place. Absolutely EVERYTHING in their store except for their denim jeans is...ready??...$5.99!!!!!!!!!! I got TONS!!! Amazing deals and i love love love it! Hudson has gotten a bit sick of shopping but he was really well behaved considering.
Some news at the Ahart home...we have a skunk!!! A skunk that is in our yard at night and it's sooooo UGLY!! EWWWWW!! Sometimes when I get home from practice I see it so I literally run inside so it doesn't spray me! haha! Andy tried shooting it tonight with a BB Gun and it didn't work. Ugh...so nasty!!!!!!!!! I was going to buy Hudson the skunk costume at children's place a couple weeks ago...IRONIC!
As far as my stone goes...I have been feeling fine, PRAISE THE LORD! And I am very much looking forward to my appointment on Tuesday. Hudson has been saying more and more words like bath and Zeb (Beb) and Uh Oh and lots of other things. Today he learned how to sign "please". He rubs his tummy with his hands it's soo cute! Such a smart boy! He has also discovered his pee pee in the bath tub. Sometimes I am like...OUCH! That has gotta hurt! lol.
Well...tomorrow is Hudson and mommy day. (That means we're home basically all day together) MY FAVORITE!! :0) Hope everyone has a great day!
