3.27.18




Hudson Frederick is f.i.v.e

He woke up today, looked at his legs, and declared that he was bigger. so it's true. He grew overnight & is now 5!

I love his heart and his undeniably Hill personality. He is all in, or all out, no gray area ever.
He is all boy, and will take anyone out if they mess with him, although he is the first to cover his eyes if scared and has a jelly heart. He watches other's faces and knows when they are disappointed, frustrated, excited and happy.
His latest is to ask what words mean. "Mom what does five mean?"... every new experience gets met with his inquisitive mind. He has embraced the open sunday school style at our church, and sits front row and listens to the short sermon usually with great interest. As we watched him Sunday, we knew those wheels were turning & the car ride home was all about the "men that took the beard off of Jesus and why did Jesus not scream and why did Jesus bleed". We pray that God will save him.

I love seeing how he interacts out here. He has grown SO much in school & speech.
 I adore every craft that he brings home & totally am guilty of babying the baby, i.e the Easter Bunny pic from this week's post!

He loves grazing & some faves are: chips and salsa, chocolate fiber one bars, cheese sticks and squeezeable applesauce , all things dairy, bananas & anything inside a Dunkin bag.
It was suggested that he engages with food in a fun & playful manner even if not eating, so he enjoys that, somedays...... other days it just grosses him ( and us ) totally out.

He loves drinking with a straw, but learned how to drink unaided in school. It might have been extra sad to bid farewell to those Thomas sippy cups months ago... sigh....
He is a fast fast runner, a strong kicker and a very good tackle man. Football and soccer seem like they are in his future.
He is a fish, and just passed the resort swim test. His wide toothy grin as soon as he dives in, and swallows a gallon of water, melts us every time.
He is a great snuggler, and wants to make sure he is not missing out on any fun, especially at bedtime.
He loves to check in on us, asking often " you ok?" & we love his concern, compassion & heart for others, especially his momma and momma jr ( aka hannah).

We are THRILLED to have some fam here to celebrate with us! We are THRILLED to have the joy to celebrate this adorable, never looking at the camera, goofy, caring & big love bug.

Happiest 5th Nerfday Hudbud!! We can't wait to partay with you tonight!! 

{and I know the sibs are excited that they won't have to share ipads anymore.... sigh.... yay for a great group gift!!}


1 Corinthians 16:13
Be on the alert. Stand firm in the faith. Be men of courage. Be strong.
