#firstworldproblems

Let me just say how much I love my nails getting done. (That, and my eye brows being waxed.) I always feel better when I look down and can see that at least one thing on me looks nice for the day. For Valentine's Day my mom was super sweet and sent my sister and I gifts to get mani's. And it was way fun. I've wanted acrylic for a while but always knew that I wouldn't be able to keep them up (always filling them) because we're still students and aren't in a position to be spending money on that. It's definitely a want not a need, for me anyway. But I took the plunge and got them. It was so great to always have nice looking nails. Once I had them, though, I realized how much I actually did around the house and that those pretty ladies couldn't keep up! And on top of always be worried I might scratch hudson I feared, I mean feared with a capital "F," that i'd some how get poop under them when I changed his diaper!!!!! Ahhhh, can you even imagine??? Total torture for me. Not to mention it being super gross! The whole idea of getting anything under them was yucky for me. With all I noticed I do around the house I was constantly washing my hands and scrubbing under my nails. I won't list everything I worried about after i touched something but it was annoying, especially when I knew I was about to then go play with and handle hudson. 

Blah blah blah  long story short... I took them off last night (took a good hour) and it's been heaven! I'm glad i got them and maybe later in life I'll get them and keep them but for now I'll just paint them and keep them pretty myself! 

The Many Faces of Hudbug Jay

This kid and all his faces. Hudson has ALWAYS had personality, but lately it's been through the roof and i'm completely in love with it! (And his chubby cheeks definitely help!) He talks non stop; like has serious conversations with me and I know nothing of what he's telling me. Yesterday he got my phone and I turned it to video in hopes that he'd record himself, which he did (and he also took some photos of himself)! He's the sweetest... and a little loopy... and I definitely helped him out, but listen to dat voice...

(Sorry for his chapped cheeks, that's Idaho for ya!)

Along with this huge personality, and so many smiles, he's very bold about telling me "NO," which is my favorite. Not! But, it's still cute. What else...

Everything is a "ball." Everything. 

Scares other kids with how excited he gets

He's still a terrible sleeper. 

He loves giving kisses. 

And is so snuggly... with me. He always pushes Jordan away when I'm around. Don't tell J, but I secretly love it :)

Eats like a champ! A champ!

He always folds his arms right as I set his plate on his high chair. 

When he sees his toothbrush he runs opposite of me yelling "no no no."

He hasn't pooped on the floor in a long while!!! Hooray!

And he knows candy when he sees it... even when he's never tried it or seen us eat it. (darn that first piece of candy on Halloween.)

This whopping 32 lbs stud is my very favorite!
