12 days

We took some pictures of Hudson yesterday, a little past the time it's ideal to do newborn pictures, but I'm a major slacker. He was pretty wide awake the entire time, but I think we got a couple cute ones, or at least one we can hang up on the wall.  Hudson is a great baby, we love having him around.

 Ellis is still adjusting, throwing tantrums and whining a lot.  Also he's pretty defiant which makes me want to pull my hair out.  He especially likes to push buttons by walking up to the baby and screaming as loud and high as possible, or pushing the swing really hard when Hudson is in it (we may be getting rid of the thing, the baby pretty much can't use it at all without getting whiplash or Ellis havinga complete meltdown/tantrum when he sees the baby in it), or banging on the bedroom door when Hudson is asleep inside, or head-butting him... It's a lovely list. Luckily he has a few cute redeeming qualities that keep us from selling him on Craigslist.

It's hard to believe we've gone from 3 to 4, it's definitely weird to drive around with 2 little boys in the backseat.  Yesterday we went to Walmart for groceries and had to have 2 carts, one for Ellis and Hudson in the carseat, and one for food... I'm guessing I'll never go shopping during the day again (at least I hope not, right now).  We don't leave the house much while Damon has been gone during the day, I'm not sure when that might happen.  On Wednesday I tried to go to playgroup which was in the morning, but by the time I got the 3 of us ready and Hudson fed (him eating every 2 hours is really cramping to any type of activities we try to do, at least for now until nursing is better), we had completely missed playgroup... I'm hoping I'll be able to get it together soon!
