HUDSON AMAZED US AGAIN

As Cohen interacts more with Hudson, Hudson is realizing that Cohen is pulling on him in several ways. We often remind Hudson that Cohen is little and doesn't know better with this little phrase "He's just a baby...he doesn't no better". So the story goes: Hudson was taking a bath yesterday and was playing with a squirt toy in the shape of a frog. Hudson began squirting the water from the frog outside of the bathtub. I reminded Hudson that he need to squirt the water in the bathtub and he responded the following words: "He's just a frog; he doesn't know any better."

Bathtime

Hudson knows exactly how to gross out his father...just drink bath water and say "Yum-Yum".



After a messy dinner, we decided to have a bath. Hudson was given a bottle of bubbles...didn't know what it was but couldn't wait to take it into the bathtub. When I was finally able to wrestle the bottle free to show Hudson what was inside...he was extremely excited.

Peter and I took turns blowing bubbles until we both felt faint...Hudson continued to ask for "more...more...more". When we finally put the bubbles away Hudson decided to do his new dance, it's not the signature dance where his bends his needs and proceeds to bounce up & down with his hips swaying back and forth...this dance is something else. It makes us want to purchase a video camera. If anyone wants to see the video we have captured (or get a live version), you will have to come visit...it's on one of our cell phones. Hudson doesn't only dance...but he has a little song that he sings with this particular dance...it goes something like "O Me...O Me...or Nome...Nome" it's not really easy trying to find the correct word(s) to describe some of Hudson's language at this point. Anyway...it's hilarious. Dance featured below (enjoy):

Snoqualmie Falls

It was cold and wet, but we decided to head out to Snoqualmie Falls. This is Hudson's first visit to the enormous waterfall located about 30 minutes east of Seattle. He fell asleep on the way, but didn't mind that we woke him up for this amazing viewing. After seeing the waterfall we decided to check out the railway museum. Once we found the museum, we discovered that during the winter and early spring months the indoor part of the museum is closed and the weather decided not to agree with us on this particular day...wet, freezing rain/show. We ended up hanging out in a coffee shop, clearly not my choice, across the street. Hudson was thrilled for the shop had lots of Dr. Suess books to choose from. Shortly thereafter we ended up heading back to Seattle for some Thai food and a visit to the Kidsquest Children's Museum for some time with Thomas the train.
