It turns out that when your children finally get beyond that newborn stage to the more adorable and interactive stage...it also means that they need to be entertained! Apparently, just eating and sleeping just don't cut it anymore! So, that's us now...tuned in to the Hudson channel 24/7!
I thought that I would take a moment though, while Hudson "talks" with the octopus dangling from his playmat, to give you a brief coles notes version of life in the Smyth house...
~ It was 18 degrees this morning when I woke up at 5:20am. That's right...eighteen degrees with an expected high today of {wait for it...} thirty-eight degrees! Do you even understand how ridiculous that is?!?!?
~ Hudson will be eleven weeks old this Thursday. This is amazing to me! It makes me feel a little less like a total rookie parent! It also means that pretty soon, I may be emotionally recovered enough to tell you the story of how my epidural stopped working when I was nine and a half centimeters dilated {now there's an entry for the "Book of Awesome"!!}.
~ Speaking of Hudson, his future wife was born last week! Yup, you read that right...his future wife!! When a close friend of mine, who was also pregnant at the same time as me, found out she was having a little girl...we decided to kick it old school and betroth our children! It's never too early to get the ball rolling!
~ I finally finished A.J. Jacobs' book "The Know-It-All" and love, love, LOVED it! I'm absolutely going to read it again! But first, it's on to Yann Martel's new book, "Beatrice & Virgil". Let's see what kind of messed cannibalistic story Martel comes up with this time!!
~ I went back to work last weekend! And by work I mean my photography business! I took my men and we headed to Montreal for my first shoot of the season; my aunt and uncle's 25th wedding anniversary vow renewal and reception. It was awesome! Even when Hudson had a monster poop explosion in the middle of the ceremony!!!!! That little man can get away with anything having eyes like that!!!
~ Our favourite show, Lost, ended this past weekend and I'm pleased to say that watching this lunacy for the past six years was totally worth it! Not only was the series finale amazing but it also turns out that my theory was right all along! You can always count on the Catholic girl to know purgatory when she sees it!!
~ Lastly, I love etsy.com
Well folks, that's life on our end of town! Thanks so much to my two or three readers that still tune in!!!!!
