Hudson - 7/7/2017

Hudson ate malt-o-meal cereal and one dried plum for breakfast.  For lunch we had roasted "beef kabobs" with zucchini, red peppers, and pineapple.  He ate half of his meat, bites of vegetables, ate pineapple, and ate his whole wheat elbow noodles.

I just want to make note of the fact that we're playing outside every morning and enjoying the fresh air before it gets too hot in the afternoon.  When the afternoon temperature in the shade is close to 100 degrees like it's been this week I've just been keeping the kids indoors.  We had lots of fun chasing bubbles this morning.  Reid was ready to go in by lunch time and said, "I'm burning up!" Ha!

Ok Mommy Maddy I've got an up to date report on Hudson's "color-blindness" or more accurately the lack thereof!!  I can say with certainty he's totally NOT colorblind!  I'd say he's obviously just not interested in colors yet and that's fine.  Lauralea and I talked about it last night and came up with a very simple way to check and I took a picture to show you.  First, and maybe most importantly, I did NOT make this a color game!  Hudson likes games so I put 4 different colored legos in a pile and set one yellow, red, green, and blue legos around the pile.  Then I just picked up the red one and said, "Can you find one that looks like this and put it here?"  Repeated the same with every color and he did it easily with NO hesitation!  I never said the actual color of any of them!  (No extra charge for this test!  Haha!!)

Hudson crawled up on the blue balance beam and acted like he was going to really jump off - "watch out people, watch out!!"  Then he simply crawled off.  Ha!  Pretty cute.  He crawled over to where Atley was laying and found her to be a nice pillow!  If you zoom in on the picture you'll see her eyes smiling and also her cute dimple.  :)
