Our new house

Here are some pictures of our new house from right when we moved in...before we added any of our own touches.  We live in a townhouse now which is great...if anyone is running around loudly upstairs it is us and not our super noisy neighbors.  We can't really hear our neighbors when we are inside our house which is a huge change from Staten Island- a good change.  Our building consists of five townhouses and 4 out of the 5 of us have two year old boys.  Strangely one of the other two year olds is named Hudson too...and we thought his name was so unique, or at least somewhat rare.  We know all of our neighbors (in our building) at least a little bit and like them all.  How great is that?  Let us know when you're coming to visit!

 

Hudson turns 2!

Our little guy is a two year old (and yes, we have definitely had quite a few glimpses of the infamous terrible twos.)  We had a family birthday affair this year since Hudson's birthday fell just two days before moving day.  

Awww, what a happy birthday boy

Making a wish?  Or is he plotting about his future in pyrotechnics?

Hudson was obsessed with his balloon, until we moved and left it behind.  Bye Thomas!

Visit with Hill, Mike and Cousin Maddie

Hillary, Mike and their new baby Madeline came to visit in Staten Island.  The cousins got together for a couple of photo ops.  They make a pretty cute bunch...

Catching up...

It's been over two months since I made our last post, so I guess it's probably time to do some updating...  In these last couple of months:

*Hudson turned two

*Sawyer turned 5 months old

*We moved to Fort Belvoir, an army base just south of Washington DC.  Jordan is going back and forth between here and Staten Island while he finished up his job up there and gets ready for his new job in DC.  

*We bought new cars...yes, I am the owner of a minivan now and I couldn't be happier!  Jordan got a Honda Civic which is getting him some ridiculous number of miles per gallon

*Sawyer turned 6 months old

I will now update each of these things separately...but that's the quick version...

Onto my next who knows how many posts.  I hope this finds everyone doing great!

Sawyer is FOUR months old

Our little boy is getting so big! We haven't been to the doctor too recently, but we'd estimate his weight to be somewhere between 15 and 15 1/2 lbs. Sawyer's shining moment this month was learning to roll over- he can go from his front to his back with no help now! He is still a very happy baby who loves being on the changing table and loves to watch people talk to him. He gives out smiles constantly and can get a laugh out of the most random of things. I think he really is growing into this sleeper...check it out:

Easter!

The Easter Bunny

Hudson, Sawyer and I went to see the Easter Bunny yesterday. Hudson was, understandably, terrified of this creature with the high pitched voice, but loves to talk about him now. Figures.
