Park Day Pictures

Park day with the boys! I've been in need of some good pictures of the kiddos. Thanks to Katie for coming up and shooting for me. Sorry this post is pretty picture heavy but there were quite a few good ones! My boys are growing up so fast! 

Hudson is basically cruising the furniture already at only 8 months old and I'm trying to slow him down! I caught him climbing the wall of the crib the other day and about cried that its already that time to lower it. With the first child you are so excited for every new stage you can hardly stand to wait and then the second comes along and you can only think, "are we there already??" Sorry for the sadness- this momma has just been a little emotional lately! :)

Of course momma got in on the swinging action, I'm a kid and still love to swing, sue me :)

Family bike trip to Jekyll

We recently took a trip to Jekyll for the day to go bike riding. Well I guess I should say the Lettows were going to ride the surrey and mom, dad, Katie and Bj were going to ride their bikes. It didn't exactly work out because the minute we tried to get Chandler to sit in a seat on the surrey he was not having it! Thankfully the lady let us return it since we had just rented it 5 minutes prior :) So no biking at all for us. We just drove around the island and strolled around the shops. It probably worked out because it was freezing anyway. But here's some of our family pictures..all bundled up!

This hat brings back memories because Chan wore it :(

The crew

Another cute hat kid :)

We love Jekyll though and hope to install the kids bike seats for next time so we can actually ride, with a little warmer temps!

Christmas

It was such a busy Christmas for us this year but it was so exciting to watch the kids experience everything. Most of our Christimas was spent driving around back and forth between families houses but here are a few  pictures at my mom's. 

Chandler was deeply engrossed in the train that went around my parents tree,

Stockings!

What a difference a year makes!

Recaps of Hudson's early weeks

Since I've missed posting a lot of Hudson's early months I'm posting a few pictures of his early days.

Back last June a few weeks before Hudson was due, a few of my good friends threw me a surprise baby shower at Mimi's. I had no idea and was pretty shocked :)

Quite surprised!

Love these girls, they were so sweet to think of us

I can't believe this was just a couple weeks before he made his arrival!

Some more pictures of his birth and first few weeks thanks to my sister's camera!

At this point I was getting upset because I knew they would have to take him away.

His poor shaved head! 

Here are a few more from his first weeks at home. We were so glad to start our family of four!

I love this sleepy face

Chandler excited to have his little brother home!

Always looking for daddy, I love this picture!

Some newborn shots my sister took, it was so hard to pose him even though he was dead asleep for most of  it!

Loving on brother
