Blowing out candles with Poppa Tom.

Someone was very happy to finally have a day that was all about HIM again (notice there are no pictures of you-know-who :)

Hudson is 4 Weeks old today!

Wow- time really flies when you are changing a million diapers. Hud is four weeks old today- and what a tumultuous four weeks it's been. Hud, however, has been (knock on wood) a total "angel baby". Max is not quite as excited about him. A hint of jealousy, in addition to the onset of the "terrible two's" (which are NO JOKE btw) have been proving to be quite a challenge. Needless to say, there are time-outs-a-plenty around here :)

Fletch Madigan (199?-2008)

We said goodbye to our beloved Fletchy dog yesterday. Amidst all the baby madness, we managed to notice that he wasn't quite himself lately. An unexpected cancer diagnosis gave us only a week more with him, but he gave us eight good years of his unconditional love. Although I will have a lot less vacuuming to do- he will be sorely missed :)
