Simply the Best

I am, quite possibly, the world's best blogger.  As you can see I post daily about all kinds of things like what we did in Feb, March, April, May, June, July, Aug, and even this month.  I post lots of pictures and have told you all about our move, our 2+ months in CT, and our fabulous new house.  If Hudson could type he would tell you about its two fireplaces.  That's his favorite feature.

So...I guess we start here.  Sept. 25th, 2011.  We just got internet after being without for over 2 months.  We suddenly are a whole lot less productive.  Surprise surprise.  We (prior to internet) have been very busy working both inside and outside of our house trying to make things fit our tastes a bit more.  We are fresh off a very busy crab season where we were pulling in some dozen crabs a day from our crab pots.  I went from being a crab picking rookie to being ready to work in a factory picking those suckers.  In actuality I am not all that fast at picking and I don't have the patience for the legs or claws.

We have been having a blast visiting with family and friends and feel so lucky to be able to see everyone here as frequently as we do.  Now if only I could talk my family into moving down...  I have a feeling once they come to visit they won't want to leave, so I've got that going for me.

Hudson started Pre-K and he absolutely loves it which is a giant sigh of relief for me.  He was that kid that cried every time I left him at preschool last year so I was a little worried about him going 4 days...I feared that my head would be covered in grey hairs within weeks if we had the same struggle this year.  Thankfully, thankfully, thankfully he LOVES his school.  His teacher gets rave reviews, he comes home with cool projects, he brought Ama (one of his grandmothers) in for show & tell, and, for me?  I get to drop him off and pick him up in the morning without.getting.out.of.the.car.  It's lovely.  Quick.  Stress free.  And dry (for me) in rain.  Also, although I haven't tried it yet, I'm pretty sure there is no need to change out of my jammies for drop off.

                                                  First day of school (Outfit chosen by H)

Sawyer and I have been busy exploring on the days Hudson is in school.  We've become experts at the area grocery stores, Chick-fila, hardware stores, parks, the library and various other places.  Soon we are going to have a couple of days of at-home preschool for both Sawyer and his cousin which will be good for unorganized little me.  Heck, I might even learn a thing or two.

I'll leave you with these two final images...
