my day '10

I love Mother's Day.  Mom's day and my birthday are the two days I really feel like I can take the day "off"!  I'm SO lucky and blessed that I get to be called "mommy".

  

Adalyn posing downtown after brunch.  

Hudsen was in awe of the escalators in the Galleria (yes, I still call it that) so we were lagging behind and I came around the corner and saw Kaden and Jeremy helping Adalyn walking.  TOO CUTE!  It melted my heart.  

Kaden wrote this at school.  

 I love this.

Hudsen's letter to me.  

I was really feelin' the love!

Another masterpiece by Kaden.

A few days after this, Addie really took off walking on her own.  Now she is unstoppable!  

Huddy always lends a helping hand to his baby sis!  What a special bond they have!  

We took a hike at Quarry Hill after brunch.   I love this shot. 

What a perfect day!!!  

Just like big brother...

OK, so Sat. night we called (actually texted...weird, I know) a babysitter.  One of our favorites, Maddie decided she was up for the challenge of watching our three little monsters.  It was 15 minutes before she arrived and I was just about to go down the stairs to get ready to leave when I noticed the door shut in the boys' upstairs bathroom.  I thought that was weird since the only two that shuts the bathroom door were both downstairs.  That leaves Hudsen.  I opened the door to see what he was doing and found this:

I, of course, yelled just because I was shocked.  It was colored hair gel.  Kaden had gotten it in his stocking at Christmas and just applied some to his hair.  Well, Hudsen applied A LOT.  He started crying (probably because of my initial reaction) and kept saying, "I just wanted to be like Kaden..."  Poor little guy!  So, in the bathtub he went.
Needless to say, after that incident, the night involved a few of these:

Hudsen's special day at school. Grandma B. was here to watch Adalyn so I could go and spend the morning with Hudsen. It was a blast!
Hudsen's new thing lately has been playing legos and tinkertoys in our bay window. Love that we can sit in our family room and watch the deer. Do you see it right to the left of Hudsen?
