Ok, since I'm really bad about writing in Hudson's baby book or journal, maybe I'll be better doing this to keep track of his new developments....Just a warning, this will probably be a complete Hudson blog since most of my life currently revolves around him!
Today we went to the zoo. I don't think he cared too much about the animals in the beginning. In fact, he was downright scared of the petting zoo. I was beginning to think they sent me home with the wrong baby from the hospital! He was more curious about the various types of rocks and fences that he could climb on. He was also pretty curious about the other children there and what type of snacks they brought, since he had the only mom who was an idiot and didn't pack any (In my defense, we did eat lunch immediately before heading out there.)! He loved the choo choo train, though I was pretty disappointed at the shabbily painted cut-out animals haphazardly placed along the train route. Towards the end, he got really tired and seemed to become more interested in the animals while being carried. True to form, he laughed out loud at the monkeys but seemed jealous that even the monkey had a sippy cup full of juice. The great thing about the Austin zoo (other than the fact that it is a rescue zoo - not one of those full of concrete where you feel sorry for the critters) is that you can see the whole thing in a couple of hours, which is nice because it was HOT at 85 today (wishing for shorts). Of course, my camera wouldn't work so I have no evidence of the trip. Maybe I just made the whole thing up so he'll think I'm a better mom than I am...hmm....
In other news, tomorrow Keta and I start our weight loss challenge. Boy do I need that before summer. The warm weather has made me realize that I have absolutely nothing to wear since at this time last year, I was nursing and was looking fairly good, if I do say so myself.
Well, time to go be a wife/mommy and find some food for my monkeys.....
