Three and a Half

Hudson is now 3 1/2, so I thought I'd post an update. He still loves swimming, imaginary play, reading books and yellow.

He can dive to the bottom of the deep end of our pool (about 6 feet), swim a few laps and play for hours on a raft. His favorite time is probably swimming with his dad.

For those of you who have "met" Tad, he's still around, but not as often. Occasionally Tad comes over to play, eat or get into trouble (Hudson loves tattling on him & watching me discipline him :)).

He's gotten into "working out" with his dad & doing work projects together.

He still loves music. Here he's playing the keyboard & singing hymns in the youth building at our church. He also still loves school.

Some funny things he's said...

while walking past the ironing boards at Walmart "Mom look, they sell surf boards here." (shows you how much I iron vs how much we're at the beach :))

whenever he makes up different people or animals for us to be, he'll group the 3 of us as one thing and then Anna Kate is always Jonah (eg- Dad, you're the Daddy elephant who's an astronaut, Mom, you're the mommy elephant who helps launch the space ship, I'm the boy elephant who drives the space ship & Anna Kate is Jonah).

I guess Hudson is a typical big brother. Sometimes he's great with Anna Kate, trying to teach her something or just play with her, but mostly he's annoying her or she's bothering him.

Overall being 3 1/2 seems really cool and you are the coolest 3 1/2 year old! We love you Hudson Lee!
