Eleven Months!!!

Dear Hudson,
You are eleven months today!!! Do you like your picture pose this month? This was the only way I could get you still enough to take the picture! You are definitely everywhere this month. You love to sneak into our room and check yourself out in the mirror. You laugh and laugh at yourself. Your first Christmas was so much fun. Despite the fact that you had a double ear infection (more on that later), you had a blast! It was fun to watch you "open" presents for the first time. Really it was me opening for you- but you certainly enjoyed every gift! We took another road trip to Omaha the day after Christmas and you did awesome. You did not fuss at all the entire 12 hours either way. We set you up with your favorite show Little Einstein's and you enjoyed hanging out with Annie and the gang for a while. You enjoyed visiting with your Nebraska relatives and enjoying another Christmas there. The rest of this month has involved quite a few visits to the doctor unfortunately. You can't seem to shake those ear infections, but we will go again tomorrow and see what happens. You are quite the eater! You eat more than I do little munchkin! You love EVERYTHING we put in front of you. We have yet to find anything that you won't eat. We even gave you some pickles looking for a reaction, but you just ate them up! You are very social and have yet to meet a stranger. I have to hold on tight to you because I think you would visit with everyone we encounter if I don't watch out! I can hardly believe that next month you will be one year old! This has been the best year of our lives - we love you so much and are so blessed to be your mommy and daddy. We thank God for you every day sweet little one.

Love,
Mommy and Daddy
