A little "Hudson history"...

For the ones that don't know...Hudson is named after my grandmother's maiden name...she was Ruby HuDson...who married a HuTson...but we like HuDson with a "D"!! ;) And Michael is Brad's middle name as well as his dad's middle name! We are SO in LOVE with our sweet angel and can't wait for ALL of you to meet him!!!

Jogging stroller...

My father-in-law gave me a JEEP Jogging stroller for my birthday!! It is going to be SO WONDERFUL... we were having a great time playing with it!! We even put the over-sized chick (my mother-in-law gave us) in the stroller!! We could not stop laughing...our neighbor Carol came out to take pictures of us!! :)









Saturday with the BROWN'S


Brad and I REALLY enjoy our Saturdays together...this morning we took our traditional Saturday morning walk around the neighborhood, did some "house chores," ran to Lowe's, Wal-Mart and the gym for a quick swim...when we returned home Brad got to work on staining the deck and I got to work on my TAN!!! It's like Jessamie always says..."tan fat is better than white fat"....hahaha!!! :)
