Trav and I have a heart for adoption and someday, we hope to adopt. But, there has to be something for us to do now... even if it is just prayer. So, tonight as I tucked my son into his warm bed, we prayed together for the orphans. We prayed that God would keep them warm and comfort them. To hear my son's small sweet voice say those prayers, a deeper part of my heart began to ache. <br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">I felt convicted.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;">Then after saying goodnight to Hudson, I walked into the other room and held our baby Jude. I watched him with complete delight as he smiled back at me and kicked his legs so rigorously. I stared into his blue eyes and felt such joy as I listened to his sweet baby sounds. And I was reminded of those children who don't have parents to take delight in them. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">My heart broke even deeper.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">And in the midst of this, I thought of our great Rescuer </div><div style="text-align: center;">Of the One who is the Father to the fatherless. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I felt hope.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">And so for now,</div><div style="text-align: center;">Although, we alone cannot save all the orphans of the world</div><div style="text-align: center;">We know the One who can.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">So, for now we will start by praying.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

Being there with Jude brought back so many vivid memories of our first days with Hudson. Even now, when we drive by the hospital, I get butterflies in my stomach because it just brings back so many fond memories. I have said it before, but I really do love being pregnant, giving birth and having children. I just love the whole thing. Anyway, here are a few more pictures and a few more tid bits about our stay at the hospital. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />

He is the best partner in life, companion, best friend and husband that I could have ever asked for.

</div>The next morning, I was up and showered and ready for visitors. I felt great and I probably had a lot more energy than most do after having a baby considering Jude was born in less that 4 1/2 hours of labor. Having a fast labor is fine, but the only thing that concerns me is that the next baby might be born in the car... that would be awful! We keep saying with the next baby we aren't going anywhere and as soon as I have my first contraction we are rushing to the hospital. <br />
<br />
Anyway, our friends, Kristin, Mike and "How-ee" (aka Hallee their daughter), were watching Hudson and they brought him to the hospital in the morning so he could meet "baby Jude". (Hudson never says, "Jude"... he always says, "baby Jude".) Trav and I were both so excited to see Hudson and we couldn't wait for him to see his baby brother for the first time.<br />
<br />
We had purchased a gift for Hudson "from" baby Jude... a Thomas train. He had really begun to like trains, but we held off on giving him any trains knowing that we were going to give him a train set as something special after the baby was born. When he walked in the room, he really didn't seem to know what was going on. But once we told him baby Jude had something special for him, he got really excited. It didn't take long for him to be completely enthralled with Jude. Hudson was touching Jude's face, holding his hand, smiling at him and he was so excited to get to hold him. And he hasn't stopped... he really already seems to LOVE his brother and I have been so taken back by how nurturing Hudson is. </div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiEDqEB_O25XQFAqDNv_jLJ6zgZXM7Rrb1tn0l5aaPXmiA23LjQ92sXg-sQHLtIjOpivwJBhl8Ui9s97jEWMWGm1FVDcizzhqfFzvuzbeisAiijc0LEy2gE6o4N3BGPUAOl8EucWXsqlf4/s1600/IMG_6896.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiEDqEB_O25XQFAqDNv_jLJ6zgZXM7Rrb1tn0l5aaPXmiA23LjQ92sXg-sQHLtIjOpivwJBhl8Ui9s97jEWMWGm1FVDcizzhqfFzvuzbeisAiijc0LEy2gE6o4N3BGPUAOl8EucWXsqlf4/s400/IMG_6896.JPG" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgI_OT-MXPVYOGZehcjLSPb1wHJvyRkRLOnML3bSB08MVgl0ZhyT5V5XTKWg-mvRxSz1Msk5v4OokbCheTS3FA7wvdRgJziEZcfBgGk_OZODvfGBaFRkt_Id2dMyHF-blgevqZU1EI0lUM/s1600/a+%25281+of+1%2529-15.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="266" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgI_OT-MXPVYOGZehcjLSPb1wHJvyRkRLOnML3bSB08MVgl0ZhyT5V5XTKWg-mvRxSz1Msk5v4OokbCheTS3FA7wvdRgJziEZcfBgGk_OZODvfGBaFRkt_Id2dMyHF-blgevqZU1EI0lUM/s400/a+%25281+of+1%2529-15.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj0i14NFh7z81iOqW8qCw32QUJbbNDQtcoGCgtgl00I8el8z7XZsXVLtbHMyoagjtE-hAZ89-JP5eWZBIVlDMHhDx1mWO5FHubHJs8MEOtQrNea0C12_nUVzhU1cBpZ8uJOx1GTYxpI5Io/s1600/a+%25281+of+1%2529-16.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="266" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj0i14NFh7z81iOqW8qCw32QUJbbNDQtcoGCgtgl00I8el8z7XZsXVLtbHMyoagjtE-hAZ89-JP5eWZBIVlDMHhDx1mWO5FHubHJs8MEOtQrNea0C12_nUVzhU1cBpZ8uJOx1GTYxpI5Io/s400/a+%25281+of+1%2529-16.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg1FM6h4WZrhzkrQGIrYMyUhf-D4vA_NamT7Tu8qZXpr_364W6m2NAVhIRNyZbhzPoWhVJQafPFkKzt0ochfyLDAOLQqfibBE3ATwiSG1Xepxa_HRv2UaaUdLaNc97tNu2Y7mJLHZ-Ymzs/s1600/jude+%25281+of+1%2529-5.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="266" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg1FM6h4WZrhzkrQGIrYMyUhf-D4vA_NamT7Tu8qZXpr_364W6m2NAVhIRNyZbhzPoWhVJQafPFkKzt0ochfyLDAOLQqfibBE3ATwiSG1Xepxa_HRv2UaaUdLaNc97tNu2Y7mJLHZ-Ymzs/s400/jude+%25281+of+1%2529-5.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhCD3vq9A1tycKx7zaOGkY39EvA1bY3zUzTqLtNlBVCRc4gsV4bdrKeomfa2-J7nOuuPldcW4mPd_Xw-qJyt5Mi-OaDB8uAz3WwIw_RPbvTi3cCFjqrhyphenhyphenb4iM7a7ZtYHpCHa6HkyCgIyrY/s1600/jude+%25281+of+1%2529-6.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="266" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhCD3vq9A1tycKx7zaOGkY39EvA1bY3zUzTqLtNlBVCRc4gsV4bdrKeomfa2-J7nOuuPldcW4mPd_Xw-qJyt5Mi-OaDB8uAz3WwIw_RPbvTi3cCFjqrhyphenhyphenb4iM7a7ZtYHpCHa6HkyCgIyrY/s400/jude+%25281+of+1%2529-6.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Then we had a surprise visit from Rick Warren and Rick Muchow. Both of them came into the room singing very loudly, the portion of the Beatles song, "Hey Jude". They had seen on facebook that we had the baby and stopped by the hospital for a little visit. They both have very busy schedules and we would never have expected them to stopped by, however, we were so blessed that they took the time to come visit us. It was another moment at the hospital that I will always remember and cherish. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">They visited with us and our families for a little bit, held Jude and then they took some time to gather everyone who was there to pray for Jude and our now family of 4.

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Another visitor was our friend Mark. He is actually a friend of Travis' family and he lives in Ohio, however, Saddleback hospital is one of his clients so he is constantly flying back and forth. We didn't even know he was in town until he sent the CEO and CFO of the hospital down to our room for a visit. The CEO walked in, introduced himself and said Mark had told him to come pay us a visit. Then later that day Mark came and visited us. It was so great to see him and just feels like a little bit of home for Travis. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjr91vYtcdjkkAU6eMHSqkuR4zQYpf3hWbP1fVmdrbnQRsYaRaCOxxAs6EWH5hjus0_z829S1TLba9OIGgWSP4___N-kEl6AxMlLd5B4HVV04jSBpFvYadCf4VZhog-0f9RQE15hWAP7Eo/s1600/L+%25281+of+1%2529-2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjr91vYtcdjkkAU6eMHSqkuR4zQYpf3hWbP1fVmdrbnQRsYaRaCOxxAs6EWH5hjus0_z829S1TLba9OIGgWSP4___N-kEl6AxMlLd5B4HVV04jSBpFvYadCf4VZhog-0f9RQE15hWAP7Eo/s400/L+%25281+of+1%2529-2.jpg" width="266" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

I am finally getting around to sharing the story of Jude's birth. I must say after hearing that most people have their second babies early, I was expecting that I wouldn't make it to my due date with Jude. So, for the last 2 weeks it felt like everyday I was thinking, "Is today the day?". What made it worse was that 4 weeks before his due date I was already dilated to a 1 and then 2 weeks before his due date I was at a 2 and 30% effaced. However, Jude didn't make his arrival until his actual due date, October 24th. I have since found out that only 4-5% of babies are actually born on their due date!<br />
<div><br />
</div><div>Anyway, Jude's due date was on a Monday so Travis took off work the weekend before so we could either spend time together as a family or we figured we would be spending time in the hospital. He hasn't had a weekend off were he wasn't leading somewhere or we weren't out of town, since Hudson's birth. Needless to say, we were excited to spend time together as a family. Since I still wasn't in labor on Sunday morning, we decided to make the most of it. We decided to spend the morning walking to the pier to get breakfast.<br />

</div><div>It was a beautiful quiet morning and we just enjoyed conversation with each other and the beautiful view. Travis mentioned at breakfast that ideally he was hoping for me to go into labor that day. However, the only sign of labor were the braxton hicks I had been having for months. They were more uncomfortable and happening more often, but I knew it wasn't labor. On our walk back home, we stopped at the park for a little bit and let Hudson play. It was nice for us to have a little time to focus just on him. </div><div><br />
</div><div>Once we were home, we all took naps and once we woke up, we decided to head to Disneyland for the evening. On our way to Disneyland we picked up Travis' mom who was in town. She hadn't planned on being here for the birth, however, her father's health was declining and he actually passed away a week before Jude was born. We were all sad to have lost such a wonderful man and although the circumstances were unfortunate, we were thankful it allowed for Debbie to be with us for the birth.<br />

</div><div>We spent the evening walking around Disneyland and enjoying all of their fall decorations. At this point, I was feeling a little bit more pressure and the braxton hicks were definitely uncomfortable, but still no sign of labor. We then stopped at our favorite place in downtown Disney to eat some beignets. While eating our beignets at around 8:40pm I had my first contraction. I told Travis that it was definitely stronger than a braxton hicks, but I still wasn't sure if I was beginning to go into labor. Travis got a huge smile on his face and was ready to take me to the hospital... haha! I assured him it wasn't time :) With Hudson I had these type of contractions for about an hour each day for 2 days prior to actually having him. I had Hudson in about 11 1/2 hours which is really fast for a firstborn, so I knew to expect this time to be a lot faster (my doctor was guessing 4-6 hours). We headed home and began keeping track of the contractions.<br />

</div><div>By the time we left I had 2 more contractions and they were each about 10 minutes apart. On our 45 minute drive home, they continued to get stronger and were now about 4-7 minutes apart. We dropped off Debbie and headed home knowing that would we see her at the hospital probably sometime within the next 12 hours. Little did we know how quickly Jude would come. </div><div><br />
</div><div>I called our friend Kristin, who was planning on sleeping at our house if I went into labor during the night. I called to gve her a warning that I might be going into labor and I figured she would probably need to come over in the next couple of hours. I was still planning on waiting it out a little bit, but I just wanted to let her know... again, little did I know how quickly things were about to happen. </div><div><br />
</div><div>By the time we got home, Travis put Hudson to bed and I figured I would just call the doctor to see what I should do. I knew I wasn't in active labor because I could talk through the contractions and I remember how painful active labor was. However, my worst fear was missing the window of opportunity to have an epidural. </div><div><br />
</div><div>Being that it was the weekend I knew my doctor wouldn't be in, so I spoke with the doctor on duty. She wanted me to come in immediately to be checked since my labor was so quick with Hudson and because I was already dilated to 2 cm on Friday. I was a little shocked... I seriously thought I was going to have time to shower and labor at home for a while. However, after talking to our doctor I quickly called Kristin who came over to our house within 10 minutes. We grabbed the last few things we needed to throw into our already packed bags took one last belly picture and headed out the door. Everything was beginning to happen so quickly. By this point it was only about 10:30pm and I couldn't believe we were heading to the hospital. I still wasn't convinced they were going to check me in and I didn't want to have my family heading to the hospital if I wasn't going to be admitted. However, good thing my mother knew better, she had my family already getting ready to leave and meet us there. </div><div><br />
</div><div>By the time we were driving to the hospital, the contractions were getting closer and closer and definitely getting more painful. I knew at this point, I was definitely in active labor and I was really looking forward to the ever-so-wonderful epidural. The funny thing is with both my labors I wasn't really in painful contractions until we were in the car. Both times I had to be convinced by the doctor and my husband that I needed to go to the hospital. It must be something about driving there that makes my body get into gear ;) haha! </div><div><br />
</div><div>Anyway, when we arrived at the hospital Travis dropped me off at the front of the entrance while he quickly went to park the car. At this point, I was squatting in the lobby and doing breathing techniques during the contractions. Travis grabbed just the small camera and our video camera. I didn't want him to grab the rest of our stuff in case they didn't admit me. I must have been in denial because I was clearly in labor at this point. <br />
<br />
</div><div>Travis came running in and we had to wait for a nurse to come down with a wheel chair. She then took us up to labor and delivery and by this point... I was in a lot of pain. They had me quickly change and checked me. The nurse asked me what I thought I was at and I figured maybe a 3. Well, I was at a 4 1/2! So, I was definitely getting admitted. </div><div><br />
</div><div>They began drawing blood, putting in an IV all the while I am making sure they are very aware that I really wanted an epidural. Once we were in our room, the nurse said I had to wait until I had a certain amount of the IV fluid in me before the anesthesiologist could give me the epidural. So, we figured it was a good time for Travis to run to the car to get our things... which really all we needed was our big camera. While he was gone, I had to lie on the bed which for me is not comfortable and absolutely an awful position to be in while having contractions. I asked the nurse if I could stand up and squat on the ground, but she assured me the doctor would be there soon and I was already set up to receive the epidural. She asked me if the doctor made it there before Travis was back did I want to wait to get the epidural... to which my reply was NO...haha! However, luckily Travis walked right in after she asked me. <br />
<br />
I remember feeling panicked inside thinking that if I didn't get an epidural I didn't know how I could do this. I have no idea how women give birth without medicine... it is absolutely amazing to me. Maybe I have a really low level of pain tolerance or maybe because I knew I was about to have a way out from the pain, but I really felt convinced I couldn't have this baby without medicine.<br />
<br />
The anesthesiologist came in and had me sit in a particular position and then I just waited. I remember the epidural being little painful with Hudson, so I was expecting the same feeling. He told me I would feel a little sting and burning which I thought was just the shot to numb the area before the epidural. So, after that...which it really wasn't painful... I just keep waiting for the painful part. Then he asked me if I was starting to feel some relief which I was. I couldn't believe it... the epidural didn't even hurt. It may have been because my contractions were so much more painful with Jude than they were with Hudson. I assume they were worse this time because they came on so quickly and were so much closer together. Plus, I was only at a 3 when I got my epidural with Hudson and I bet I was probably at a 6 or more when I got the epidural with Jude.<br />
<br />

My family had just arrived and all came into the room to visit. We were beyond excited to meet this little baby and of course, to finally find out if we had a boy or girl. Within no time, the doctor came to check me and they couldn't even tell what I was at because the bag was bulging. They broke my water then checked me to find out I was at a 9 and said it could be anywhere from 5 minutes to an hour before I was pushing. The doctor was washing her hands and I told her, I REALLY feel like I need to push now. She checked me again and sure enough... I was at a 10 and she could already feel the baby's head! <br />
<br />
While they were prepping things, I asked the nurse if the water was clear. It wasn't... so I knew what to expect. The doctor explained to me there was meconium and she was going to have some specialists come in to suction out the baby's lungs immediately after the birth. She explained that Travis wouldn't be able to cut the cord, but he would be able to cut the remainder of the cord after they took care of the baby. Also, she wasn't going to be able to put the baby on my chest immediately after the birth. I was surprisingly calm, partly because I knew what to expect and partly because I wanted them to do what was best for the baby. <br />
<br />
They wanted me to do a few "practice pushes", but thankfully I explained to the doctor that I only pushed for 43 minutes with Hudson and he was face up (when they are face up it is more painful and takes longer... most mom's push anywhere from 1 1/2 hours to 2 1/2 hours with first). Once she realized how fast Hudson came, she told me NOT to push. She checked the position of the baby and the head was down... she could already feel his ear. She immediately called the doctors and specialists who were coming for Jude to rush because the baby was coming. This part was definitely painful. Pushing was painful, but waiting to push when your body is telling you to push is also painful. <br />
<br />
As soon as all the doctors were there, they had me start to push. With Hudson, they had me positioned a certain way and had Travis holding my head up. This time they just had me push... Travis didn't know where to help and didn't know what to do. And it all just happened so fast. However, in the midst of the craziness, there is one sweet moment I will always cherish. Seconds before I started pushing, Travis looked down at me and only he could hear me... and I told him, "I think it's a boy!". All of a sudden I just had an overwhelming sense it was a boy. We both just smiled at each other and we couldn't wait to find out. Then after pushing through 1 1/2 contractions... Jude Dawson Collins was born! <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_JJ8VPm0aWwYiKcEtUC_GLGJ2kqNA3KovIOPOXInzElxpWj0Y8Iq0soTHCaitzTZ-ShKJ2di0i9IxUpzc7hZwNdiDj5-VXP9KlAMkHkrWv26cIXWgcWnqgGhoKa6xnPuca-nqYchBOXY/s1600/jdc.++%25281+of+1%2529-26.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="266" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_JJ8VPm0aWwYiKcEtUC_GLGJ2kqNA3KovIOPOXInzElxpWj0Y8Iq0soTHCaitzTZ-ShKJ2di0i9IxUpzc7hZwNdiDj5-VXP9KlAMkHkrWv26cIXWgcWnqgGhoKa6xnPuca-nqYchBOXY/s400/jdc.++%25281+of+1%2529-26.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br />
For some people who get epidurals, pushing is not painful, however, for me... it is very painful. So, when Jude was born the relief from the pain was so amazing. The pain was over and we were so taken by the fact that the baby was born, it even took us a few seconds to realize we still didn't know what it was. I looked at Travis and asked, "what is it?". The doctor held up our baby and Travis proclaimed, "it's a boy!". To which we all started crying :) Both our moms and my sisters were in the room and it was just such an amazing moment. It just felt so perfect. I don't know how else to explain it, but waiting to find out was definitely worth it. When Travis said it was a boy, it just felt like of course it is! We loved finding out with Hudson for our firstborn, but it was equally as wonderful not finding out with Jude.<br />
<br />
Anyway, after only 4 1/2 hours of labor, an epidural and 2 pushes... Jude was born on his due date on October 24th at 1:04am weighing 7 lbs 15 oz and 20 inches long. (Side note... several people have asked for comparison what was Hudson's birth weight and height... Hudson was 7 lbs 4 oz and 20 inches long and he was born the day after his due date.)<br />
<br />
Jude didn't start crying right away, but when he did it totally made me cry. It is such a sweet sound. Thankfully, I couldn't see that they had to give him oxygen. They told me they were, but I have since seen what it looked like on the video and I know that would have been really hard for me to see at the moment. They were able to quickly suction out Jude's lungs and he was totally healthy and perfect. And his apgar score really wasn't much different from a normal score!<br />

</div>After checking him to be sure he was ok, they placed him in my arms. It is at this moment that it feels like your heart has never known such love...<br />
That the reality of this amazing gift begins to sink in<br />
And you know this could only be because of the grace of our Lord. <br />
It is like you can sense the presence of the Lord in a way unimaginable. <br />
The gift of life... from the One who gives life. <br />
He was there with us. <br />
And although we know He is always with us, it is in these precious moments that somehow you know it even more deeply than before. <br />
Such beauty<br />
The perfect addition to our family<br />
A son.<br />
<br />

</div>Travis and I both had said that if we could have chosen, we would have chosen to have another son. We wanted Hudson to experience what it is like to have a brother close in age, but we also knew that a sister would be wonderful. And although, we do think it would be wonderful to have a daughter at some point, we just felt it was so perfect that God gave us a son.<br />
<br />
Another sweet moment I will always cherish, is when Travis told me what the name Jude Dawson means. We never looked up the meaning of his name, honestly we just chose it because we liked it. However, we know that God knew He was giving us a son and we know that God is the One who put Jude's name on our hearts. Jude comes from the word, Judah and if you go back to the Hebrew to the part of the name Jude is derived, it means, "the Lord is to be praised". And Dawson actually means, "son of David". <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: -webkit-auto;"><br />
</div>When Travis told me, I couldn't help the tears from welling up in my eyes. This whole time I have been pregnant we have been so focused with what God has been doing in our lives in regards to ministry. The month before we found out we were pregnant, Travis signed with Integrity to begin writing worship music for the church. In March, right after we found out I was pregnant, we traveled to Europe to allow Travis to write with Matt Redman and a few other worship leaders. Not to mention, we were just so encouraged by the believers that we met while we were there. And even when I went back to Europe in June, the family I stayed with are a family of musicians... a family with a heart for worship. And literally the days leading up to Jude's birth, Travis was in the studio finishing recording his first album with Integrity. So, it just seemed so fitting that God would give us a son and that his name would have the heritage of worship in the meaning.<br />

I know the change is going to be for the better and I will look back at this time with a sweet fondness of when we first became parents. And I know I won't be able to imagine life without this little one that we are waiting on, but still, there is a part of me that is soaking in and cherishing every last sweet moment together. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">As the due date is around the corner and our schedules have been full, I started praying that God would allow us to have one last day together. Although, we could still have a few more before the baby arrives, at least we had one day where we didn't work and we just enjoyed our family time. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">We spent the morning relaxing at home then Hudson and I napped... which was great! After naps, we headed out to the pumpkin patch and later to dinner with a gift card at PF Chang's. It ended up just being one of those days with so many sweet moments together. Travis and I kept looking at each other talking about how thankful we were for the day and how we were going to remember this day. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgoRPswKorrhdL7Dsz9CWysJKfwV4cw8hqdT_wZQ3Q_JVtyp7H6rp44zovjBdblDQXLyWBlBF_mwHvgFQG9G5alAh3Ao1hknlHtgYvFlLVyM-OAcLzpaECMDFEXDHzlTaTvuVsifAXDyds/s1600/pumpkin+%25281+of+1%2529-29.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em;

Life is about to change, but for now, I am just cherishing how life has been. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj_QgostXuWTTR19YeXbMTcEy-YTUdAc1UvJKimXfjuwavrZk5DFD7kgiEVjEWUGwuZxTUXiJaKorp6LVoG6hR4BmxtOLDtqFUQ9bmKAO2IeSLoIh6L-5kvznsb1gliMffPZnp_Sps5V0Y/s1600/IMG_6835.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj_QgostXuWTTR19YeXbMTcEy-YTUdAc1UvJKimXfjuwavrZk5DFD7kgiEVjEWUGwuZxTUXiJaKorp6LVoG6hR4BmxtOLDtqFUQ9bmKAO2IeSLoIh6L-5kvznsb1gliMffPZnp_Sps5V0Y/s400/IMG_6835.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>travis and hayleyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18342749533387822618noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7528054716897492040.post-32105229341029467462011-10-18T09:02:00.000-07:002011-10-18T10:06:04.084-07:00The beginning of October...<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">For years now, it has been a family tradition for my entire family to get together with some of our closest friends and spend a day up in Oak Glenn. Normally, we have a picnic, play flag football or some other sport, eat carmel apples, pick apples, walk around downtown...etc. However, with the craziness of life we weren't able to all go on the same day. So, this year we went with just the Hofschroer family. It was a really fun day and our boys really seemed to have fun together. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">I have to say it is crazy how much it has changed in Oak Glenn. We went when I was a kid, but in my college years when we would go it was never nearly as crowded as it is now. But, of course, as more people here about it, the more crowded it has gotten. Luckily, we went early in the day so we missed a lot of the crowds. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgDaLGTN0FbGIe_W_2Vjx3oITEnLxec-rSvxkYHxFDRH1_aCc29GAoroHwRfGBMQsZPT9ONsOBVDUVTYYLF9Qlx1LDbdBPLnhkmwavMl5dvTZrAgEbWsGfVBYZT_DKpWRx3cJrmT-GlV6E/s1600/oak+%25281+of+1%2529-23.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgDaLGTN0FbGIe_W_2Vjx3oITEnLxec-rSvxkYHxFDRH1_aCc29GAoroHwRfGBMQsZPT9ONsOBVDUVTYYLF9Qlx1LDbdBPLnhkmwavMl5dvTZrAgEbWsGfVBYZT_DKpWRx3cJrmT-GlV6E/s400/oak+%25281+of+1%2529-23.jpg" width="266" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhuwNZZAM6PeDb8KUiwxeaIZfKg5OnYR1KZHWWYsa6InTb4yLlbD_4WtPuCDPgL4tkp9VdcwMHwiHsE4ICdzuf7CnZcGCJGlQHtDsHOT5BJ7U4snNkQoGkQVd4laGKnW_Vw5jjeFWcwNpg/s1600/oak+%25281+of+1%2529-2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhuwNZZAM6PeDb8KUiwxeaIZfKg5OnYR1KZHWWYsa6InTb4yLlbD_4WtPuCDPgL4tkp9VdcwMHwiHsE4ICdzuf7CnZcGCJGlQHtDsHOT5BJ7U4snNkQoGkQVd4laGKnW_Vw5jjeFWcwNpg/s400/oak+%25281+of+1%2529-2.jpg" width="266" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

It was his first time getting this done and out of all the things she could have painted he picked out the pirate. He is quite obsessed with pirates and the pirates of the caribbean ride.

We had a such a wonderful time that we both cherish... sweet moments and conversations and time to refocus and to reflect on all that God is doing and has done in our lives. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcfeq94UDt7hLz8ZRcFGrRe9D0VggN5z0WVA0oNJvvOtE9NQMhuSiVV-sBvPRZeAdvaT2crXDm8EEsdxYY6Gj263nz5EnZj13DfY4BTWqmAqsyj59J2FAeOw8q_Zb2G0Lvh-Z7-rG-xcI/s1600/IMG_6428.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcfeq94UDt7hLz8ZRcFGrRe9D0VggN5z0WVA0oNJvvOtE9NQMhuSiVV-sBvPRZeAdvaT2crXDm8EEsdxYY6Gj263nz5EnZj13DfY4BTWqmAqsyj59J2FAeOw8q_Zb2G0Lvh-Z7-rG-xcI/s400/IMG_6428.JPG" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7dV2kjw1b7mCSY3BTQs1D6XZHDmpfw_AiPxReDhclHiEHXA5_SAoIU1SyXMtO5TtI4Gqk31Ym2TsQsa-0MXDP9Why9ctNJnFP_20bI-UaCr46ACx_aaZz9Y5T7rs4-FImZoeecMooQuw/s1600/IMG_6432.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7dV2kjw1b7mCSY3BTQs1D6XZHDmpfw_AiPxReDhclHiEHXA5_SAoIU1SyXMtO5TtI4Gqk31Ym2TsQsa-0MXDP9Why9ctNJnFP_20bI-UaCr46ACx_aaZz9Y5T7rs4-FImZoeecMooQuw/s400/IMG_6432.jpg" width="300" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjjXSXH4FF9IV0Trov0TU9R882FJCsxq0fb9T2WmGG97DOK5gMm6BIasv9rotJTaJIZ1ke0s78R9hv_AoTWksf-VeIdfEs2Kr1RvQp9xF4EFtY3-z8fKHR5GNVQSVzqc-hrwqodu84J21c/s1600/IMG_6452.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjjXSXH4FF9IV0Trov0TU9R882FJCsxq0fb9T2WmGG97DOK5gMm6BIasv9rotJTaJIZ1ke0s78R9hv_AoTWksf-VeIdfEs2Kr1RvQp9xF4EFtY3-z8fKHR5GNVQSVzqc-hrwqodu84J21c/s400/IMG_6452.jpg" width="300" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhSrtLQl95I4y7pj_Nvez5D7gHvpEGyC1_0X9yGHY0GyJEKfT0b-K_KPy3-FpH-QycxXJNjiw72Uk1-grPl1WBfSy5iYN6AdGC6VNiFXolsFX6q4dkiyXsfO1ECoIp0F7htLFZwD6G7pLw/s1600/IMG_6456.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhSrtLQl95I4y7pj_Nvez5D7gHvpEGyC1_0X9yGHY0GyJEKfT0b-K_KPy3-FpH-QycxXJNjiw72Uk1-grPl1WBfSy5iYN6AdGC6VNiFXolsFX6q4dkiyXsfO1ECoIp0F7htLFZwD6G7pLw/s400/IMG_6456.JPG" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Then at the end of July, I got to go to the annual CBU girls reunion.

I didn't blog much this summer, but since I plan on printing our blog out for our family I decided I should just post a few ridiculously long posts to catch up. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">First up, the month of June. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">I actually did go to Denmark... although, I haven't posted a single picture of myself there. It really was an amazing trip for me and so refreshing on so many levels including spiritually. I traveled with our friends Eric and Lina and stayed with Lina's family while I was there. They treated me like family and I was so blessed to be in their company. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">It was hard to leave Hudson for 10 days especially since the first time I had left him over night was only a few months before, however, after Travis and I prayed about it we really felt like this was a really good thing for me. The hardest part was actually saying goodbye to him. I was crying and had a knot in my throat all while trying to hide it from Hudson. He wouldn't understand and I didn't want to make it harder on him. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">I hit another tough moment when after being gone for about 3 days, Hudson woke up in the night crying and told Trav, "mommy back". I lost it when I heard that. Of course, I began questioning everything, but then I came back to the realization that Hudson is the Lord's. He always has been and always will be. It really was a great opportunity for him to bond with Travis even more than he already is and with all his grandparents and aunts and uncles who helped watch him while I was gone. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> Anyway, here are a few photos from my trip. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Doesn't this little street look exactly what you imagine a European street to look like? I have traveled all across Europe, but I must say Denmark is towards the top of my list. It now has such a special place in my heart. Most people don't know where Denmark is, so give you an idea it is about a 6 hour drive north of Paris:</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjzooT2myQsM2r1O3rBQ2PDmP6k7EkdYwj1L0vI2qqG-1K_V2s69W4QGhSwPBCmobCTYqrLGwjXjBUiraKXdvBDERdCGFoKhtW_QBbBqEp72vH5hXsJWiBflqnfJtGCMzNook3MEk7k4pQ/s1600/H+%252867+of+129%2529.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjzooT2myQsM2r1O3rBQ2PDmP6k7EkdYwj1L0vI2qqG-1K_V2s69W4QGhSwPBCmobCTYqrLGwjXjBUiraKXdvBDERdCGFoKhtW_QBbBqEp72vH5hXsJWiBflqnfJtGCMzNook3MEk7k4pQ/s400/H+%252867+of+129%2529.jpg" width="266" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhUxN2d34K2GkhCfdPuiZEUR378ET48KXYg_0R6taQRyEBlvbQXgkpSUXOv884T6EyTrmJWR5RMPkIJrSDy-x3TPcOic54Uqof8L_M9IbrK6nE7Go8uoTFukZilIMxunACyA5Gawr-wWzo/s1600/H+%252864+of+129%2529.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhUxN2d34K2GkhCfdPuiZEUR378ET48KXYg_0R6taQRyEBlvbQXgkpSUXOv884T6EyTrmJWR5RMPkIJrSDy-x3TPcOic54Uqof8L_M9IbrK6nE7Go8uoTFukZilIMxunACyA5Gawr-wWzo/s400/H+%252864+of+129%2529.jpg" width="266" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

So, Trav begged me to go and check it out. I don't like really strong coffee, so although I enjoyed it, it was not my favorite. I know however, Travis would have LOVED this place. Hopefully, someday we will get to go back together. They roast their own beans right their in the coffee shop. I brought some home to share with Travis. :) They have been chosen as best roasted coffee in the world. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg44DP5tCEV9P8Z1VQU6oyxE6SKHMZ2oEmudXvIDF4pM2jMmB3WD5lDW2eE8AwaCN-XYRBKtouFEMegThnD0bP-1_R81LaMvIFz4NMxA_p3U73baX3IjqImW7IPaRmwMAv_wdjUTLbAzZM/s1600/H+%25281+of+5%2529.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="266" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg44DP5tCEV9P8Z1VQU6oyxE6SKHMZ2oEmudXvIDF4pM2jMmB3WD5lDW2eE8AwaCN-XYRBKtouFEMegThnD0bP-1_R81LaMvIFz4NMxA_p3U73baX3IjqImW7IPaRmwMAv_wdjUTLbAzZM/s400/H+%25281+of+5%2529.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Drinking the famous coffee:</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_1NBZYjLatx8U-asl9am6dSTi5qV8zVqkC3q98z7j7Bjs1vbF3WID5voGgn8oftLOIcH5gTPbllm7sDb3qUc4cHJV8PXRk48HLJlf-8_xqSVyz8SGsC-yev4F1V2lLlom768VOCnkcFo/s1600/H+%252889+of+129%2529.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="266" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_1NBZYjLatx8U-asl9am6dSTi5qV8zVqkC3q98z7j7Bjs1vbF3WID5voGgn8oftLOIcH5gTPbllm7sDb3qUc4cHJV8PXRk48HLJlf-8_xqSVyz8SGsC-yev4F1V2lLlom768VOCnkcFo/s400/H+%252889+of+129%2529.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Eric and Lina:</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQP1JjLbzQATK-uzxOYUZtNbH3aSoWcXU0subdrqiHoV3hAtFP4qMKaNQL1JtmDyg13uVq1Q8rJ6ci3nIkYJQKmFsLAwQzBxUg5gfDfmzocfK3bjQg3ap3JMGVvBMrWkzlFFz4A94jkSc/s1600/H+%252891+of+129%2529.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQP1JjLbzQATK-uzxOYUZtNbH3aSoWcXU0subdrqiHoV3hAtFP4qMKaNQL1JtmDyg13uVq1Q8rJ6ci3nIkYJQKmFsLAwQzBxUg5gfDfmzocfK3bjQg3ap3JMGVvBMrWkzlFFz4A94jkSc/s400/H+%252891+of+129%2529.jpg" width="266" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Lina and her brother, Mads and I on a boat about to have a tour of Copenhagen:</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjmAfEh0TokQ2HSHKQlDj7cRchAKswW92YNyJ7jDlEr-fX8o6JIYcGUrKFK-antMlvFUxHosaH_96A2UtHFX6U59IW3ELDikCscjzMi9fiWqksKFHc-ugH8pkVSOS87g6gfSpD1aBqNf2k/s1600/H+%2528102+of+129%2529.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="266" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjmAfEh0TokQ2HSHKQlDj7cRchAKswW92YNyJ7jDlEr-fX8o6JIYcGUrKFK-antMlvFUxHosaH_96A2UtHFX6U59IW3ELDikCscjzMi9fiWqksKFHc-ugH8pkVSOS87g6gfSpD1aBqNf2k/s400/H+%2528102+of+129%2529.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">We went to the royal palace and of course, I had to take a picture of the guards:</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcssRwtT5QbK-Oj3W-DMx6cqldOZ5ztCbqXqQMNzxN9EGDKRTAMwG6wUEuwc6rKYsnLX7VZ8p-UL2qlaJ_b5KcwDSLYaYP3HDT7k04zR4QGKutAQ5kfT4kLtkGa_g4pf4aNj1ulCjatao/s1600/H+%2528119+of+129%2529.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="266" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcssRwtT5QbK-Oj3W-DMx6cqldOZ5ztCbqXqQMNzxN9EGDKRTAMwG6wUEuwc6rKYsnLX7VZ8p-UL2qlaJ_b5KcwDSLYaYP3HDT7k04zR4QGKutAQ5kfT4kLtkGa_g4pf4aNj1ulCjatao/s400/H+%2528119+of+129%2529.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">We saw an outdoor ballet and at the world's oldest theme park.

It was so great to see them and of course, to be with Hudson and Travis again. When I came home from the airport it was late at night and I ran in to grab Hudson out of his crib. He just looked at me and fell asleep again on my shoulder. After holding him for a while, I laid him back down and did a little unpacking. Then I went and grabbed him to bring him in bed with us. At this point, he woke up and just kept hugging and kissing me and saying, "mommy back". He held on so tight and cuddled all night long. We did skype while he was gone which really made it a lot easier, but it was just so sweet to be with him again. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiCuqPiOSd-nZ36hGtti9VQ32UJrEJ3BdWoUA6zaQnDTwlfhaLQJiq6dmsr1Bw7Zkc8R_CnY9fKmNeGBcXpkOMnly9AMEU_t53tWJ9mKRGoaDmxHjv6Wc-OzeYFnLFS0rpy-u1fYQTmfeU/s1600/IMG_6169.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiCuqPiOSd-nZ36hGtti9VQ32UJrEJ3BdWoUA6zaQnDTwlfhaLQJiq6dmsr1Bw7Zkc8R_CnY9fKmNeGBcXpkOMnly9AMEU_t53tWJ9mKRGoaDmxHjv6Wc-OzeYFnLFS0rpy-u1fYQTmfeU/s400/IMG_6169.JPG" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhmSCvtl1Tmgu6KDU8tH6KMBJi9-8DijWmUXFAekwcyGtxznSDsche_rhjaL-zmm6TLKY6ZKSgjmY_MC6ecq7oxdfdpkHVhX1EZvzq8j67tLzB_z4Z1ToFoV_QKwc0fMzbJz84nhaF9i6U/s1600/IMG_6156.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhmSCvtl1Tmgu6KDU8tH6KMBJi9-8DijWmUXFAekwcyGtxznSDsche_rhjaL-zmm6TLKY6ZKSgjmY_MC6ecq7oxdfdpkHVhX1EZvzq8j67tLzB_z4Z1ToFoV_QKwc0fMzbJz84nhaF9i6U/s400/IMG_6156.JPG" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">While they were here we spent a day at Disneyland:</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3SoBjAgnIFFljZvtfLSrmzW49A5ui-WcTE_dR7TvqVGFgVjKRa7IX8gK8HWbvl61eDmV-ybclrV5Lpf7qz4vI1MAmcZWfxO1zSrgpUMhd8kA4Kk9seS-41jWH5BF6bfNiEPCbQRJ_kxw/s1600/IMG_6191.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3SoBjAgnIFFljZvtfLSrmzW49A5ui-WcTE_dR7TvqVGFgVjKRa7IX8gK8HWbvl61eDmV-ybclrV5Lpf7qz4vI1MAmcZWfxO1zSrgpUMhd8kA4Kk9seS-41jWH5BF6bfNiEPCbQRJ_kxw/s400/IMG_6191.JPG" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjUwv972ZNxtVglxAZLey-d3VYWq7f5DpBJcw73gChoIz-BKLLbhq7LoGYyu6TiDVkMpRgEUdX1VkJ7dn2QPw1SomssVzXbO-lOqHdIvoi2lCgDS0bWt9YSfFHeS8VdcNPLWL9fYiKkwiw/s1600/IMG_6189.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjUwv972ZNxtVglxAZLey-d3VYWq7f5DpBJcw73gChoIz-BKLLbhq7LoGYyu6TiDVkMpRgEUdX1VkJ7dn2QPw1SomssVzXbO-lOqHdIvoi2lCgDS0bWt9YSfFHeS8VdcNPLWL9fYiKkwiw/s400/IMG_6189.jpg" width="300" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Also, during the month of June we had a visit from one of my good college friends, Shannon and her 2 kids.

Last I blogged, we still hadn't decided if we were going to find out the gender of our baby. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">When we had Hudson we definitely knew we wanted to find out and we didn't want to just find out at the doctor's office. So, after some research and one idea giving to the next, we came up with having a cake party to reveal the gender of our baby. <a href="http://hayleycollins.blogspot.com/2009/01/fun-photos.html">You can see the photos here</a> and <a href="http://hayleycollins.blogspot.com/2008/12/baby-collins-is.html">the video here.</a> It really was so much fun and a day we will never forget. And it has fun to see friends and friends of friends who have since done the same thing to find out what they were having... and even a few have put a little twist on it. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Anyway, I think with the first baby it was really nice to know what we were having, but Trav and I have both said we have always thought it would be fun to not find out. We went back and forth, weighing out the pros and cons to finding out and not finding out. The day before our 20 week ultrasound, we finally decided not to find out. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">We had the ultrasound technician print out the photos that reveal the gender and place them in an envelope, so that we could have them for a keep sake. A lot of people are surprised that we haven't been tempted to look, but because we decided we didn't want to know it isn't a temptation at all. After the ultrasound, the reality that we were going to have to wait several more months really started hitting us, but once we made it to about 24 weeks it really hasn't been hard at all. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">We are beyond excited for this baby and we can't wait to finally find out what God has blessed us with. We absolutely love having a son and we would love to have another son. The bond between brothers, especially those who are close in age is just so sweet. But, then we also know that it would be fun to have a girl. However, since we are hoping for a big family, we really don't feel like this baby has to be a girl or we will never have a girl. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">So, with that said, we are anticipating both. Some days I dream about having a daughter and other days I dream about having a son. It actually has been more fun that I thought it would be not to know what we are having. We have both a girl name and a boy name picked out, so it is just a matter of time before we know who it has been that we have been praying for these last several months. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Everyone always asks what I feel like we are having and I really don't have much of an answer. In the beginning, I really thought it was a girl, but the second half the pregnancy I really think it is a boy. I have had dreams about both and so, I really just don't know. My pregnancies have been very similar, the only difference being I was sick for about 4 weeks longer with this baby. At this point, I have gained the exact amount of weight so far with this baby as I did with Hudson, although, I just gained it a lot faster before I finally started slowing down a few weeks ago. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">I had a really great birth experience with Hudson and I actually enjoyed it! :) I know that things could be totally different with this baby and I am beginning to pray more specifically about it as we get closer to my due date. However, I must say, I am just as excited to hold this baby as I was with Hudson, but I do have additional butterflies in my stomach knowing that when this sweet baby finally makes an appearance that I will get to hear my husband say boy or girl! I can't wait!!! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">The picture below is of our baby's face at 20 weeks. Our ultrasound technician surprised us and turned the ultrasound to 3D. We never had a 3D ultrasound with Hudson, so it was fun to see how clearly we could see the baby. Some people think based on this picture it is a boy... </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiDOpbgjCz_h8HqeE21qNJR8h3DKBQzOaTL1NNuw6We50RpReVb9cCmIWr6OKO_QEY0joOkmPAclvBtYO0TLVXD8j11vK76oiS9YLmv31AF-i85HnYktqyTbpx2iDk9l5PbyPSvLx_cqx8/s1600/Picture+2.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="385" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiDOpbgjCz_h8HqeE21qNJR8h3DKBQzOaTL1NNuw6We50RpReVb9cCmIWr6OKO_QEY0joOkmPAclvBtYO0TLVXD8j11vK76oiS9YLmv31AF-i85HnYktqyTbpx2iDk9l5PbyPSvLx_cqx8/s400/Picture+2.png" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

I know there may be a few tough days for Hudson as he begins to share his time with the baby, but the gift he is receiving in exchange is priceless:</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhlje4bJNrw5QiVwd4ubud4v3c3i87bwhtsKvIKix-1um_plNcqXBXrZY4xa3qXGI69237NuUGJskeKsA7wIgjYUz9RVMpDAYOrkkUzjnbNWgFi8CQlWwW0i91QvZqORfnHlQFZ7TC3t_s/s1600/COLP2-0069.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhlje4bJNrw5QiVwd4ubud4v3c3i87bwhtsKvIKix-1um_plNcqXBXrZY4xa3qXGI69237NuUGJskeKsA7wIgjYUz9RVMpDAYOrkkUzjnbNWgFi8CQlWwW0i91QvZqORfnHlQFZ7TC3t_s/s400/COLP2-0069.jpg" width="266" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgkf9gcVQVPUq0zEBSIrvTgKk3M-tR3g0BHYzxwgiy9itYprJ9q6m3GPwgmSaNe4rrxlgvs9TmkcncYJCIjqAdiBa_AG_xLLRTplrsOP8MBaevpX_TafATsTUOAD1ZbQ-o0XfC8T6nAggQ/s1600/COLP2-0113.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgkf9gcVQVPUq0zEBSIrvTgKk3M-tR3g0BHYzxwgiy9itYprJ9q6m3GPwgmSaNe4rrxlgvs9TmkcncYJCIjqAdiBa_AG_xLLRTplrsOP8MBaevpX_TafATsTUOAD1ZbQ-o0XfC8T6nAggQ/s400/COLP2-0113.jpg" width="266" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghMqSbsgK9uswjGctvTL49a84fnc2x1wFY-8Cldu3bXjRbNf2WudVEKpRVz7xL_memoUig3jNxIU7OwkT7OHYWTTy7wgeeOTjP-WfvgJC7N6ngjDQtFcBibhiALshVKvmwsAXt5unBwoo/s1600/COLP2-0079.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghMqSbsgK9uswjGctvTL49a84fnc2x1wFY-8Cldu3bXjRbNf2WudVEKpRVz7xL_memoUig3jNxIU7OwkT7OHYWTTy7wgeeOTjP-WfvgJC7N6ngjDQtFcBibhiALshVKvmwsAXt5unBwoo/s400/COLP2-0079.jpg" width="266" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhgkcrBLOuY3y5GxQYnAy14eZG1zOXfS4ZzqWkIza8KJj40yxAqdGWiXb-SOadIKjkxb4KZwgl8WMSfbZdWrBASDVKLsNBzrr-oUJgSDLEiykEa-Ph3sLcBEchMkS45p-J1Po6Jg2ASAHQ/s1600/COLP2-0146.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="266" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhgkcrBLOuY3y5GxQYnAy14eZG1zOXfS4ZzqWkIza8KJj40yxAqdGWiXb-SOadIKjkxb4KZwgl8WMSfbZdWrBASDVKLsNBzrr-oUJgSDLEiykEa-Ph3sLcBEchMkS45p-J1Po6Jg2ASAHQ/s400/COLP2-0146.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Sometimes it feels like this pregnancy has gone by so fast, but then other times it feels like forever. When I think about the fact that I have been pregnant since January, been to Europe twice and all the craziness life has brought... it seems like I have been pregnant a long time. However, now I am beginning to feel the pressure that the baby will be here in approximately 6 weeks! I have a ton of editing to get done from different weddings we shot this summer, 2 more weddings to shoot, an engagement session and a ton of family sessions all to be done before the baby gets here. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">In addition to the photography work, I need to actually wash the car seat cover, baby clothes (those that I have which are gender neutral) and I wanted to get Christmas shopping done too! Thankfully, my mom is going to help me accomplish my ridiculous "to do" list... and maybe I need to get a little realistic with what things are most important to get done. Not to mention the fact that Travis is back in the studio (finally) trying to finish up recording his first record with Integrity music! Needless to say, we would covet your prayers as we try to tackle all that is on our plate and as we prepare for our family to transition from a family of 3 to a family of 4!</div>travis and hayleyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18342749533387822618noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7528054716897492040.post-5333720050335451482011-09-06T10:35:00.000-07:002011-09-07T11:59:11.445-07:00bad-mom-moment-of-the-century...So, yesterday I had a first. A first and hopefully the last. Here's the story...<br />
<br />
After finishing grocery shopping yesterday, I grabbed a pumpkin spice latte and headed to the car with Hudson. I was so excited to indulged in such a wonderful treat that I decided to document it with a photo. When I got to the car I got Hudson out and set him on the passenger seat with my bag so I could dig out my phone to take a picture. After we innocently took our picture, I set the phone down and began unloading the shopping cart. This is where I went wrong...<br />
<br />
In normal circumstances, I always get Hudson out first and immediately strap him in so I don't have to worry about him while I am unloading. However, in this case because I was standing right next to him I let him play in the front seat (he often does this while we are sitting parked waiting for whatever the reason may be). So, he climbed in the driver seat and was pretending he was driving. Seriously, at this point... no big deal. I am 2 feet away, unloading my stuff into the passenger seat, watching him and talking to him. I knew he had the keys in his hand, but again... I was right there.<br />
<br />
So, once the passenger seat was filled (with my eye still on Hudson), I quickly closed the front door while having my hand on the back door to open it at the same time. Then as I had the door half way open (still latched but almost pulled open) I heard a beep.<br />
<br />
Yes, a beep.<br />
<br />
I knew what this meant. In a matter of seconds, in a sequence of perfect timing that might almost be impossible to duplicate, my son had locked the car doors with the remote on our keys. Of course, with himself, my wallet and phone all locked inside... and yes, the back door was still slightly latched. I quickly being to feel a sense panic rushing through my veins. <br />
<br />
I pulled and pulled at the back door. Hoping to get it to open... which made me realize that when you are driving with your door slightly ajar, there really is no way to open it without using the handle. I then proceeded to try to convince my 2 year old to push the button again on the key chain. Mind you, he was as happy as a clam. With a big smile on his face, completely unaware of the severity of the situation, he looks down at the keys and just smiles back at me. <br />
<br />
I went on to tell him to push the button by the shoe, because we have a small rainbow sandal keychain on our keys. Well, once I said shoe, he started looking down at his shoes, then again looked right back at me with a big smile. I was then coming to grips with the fact that my son probably was not going to be talked into pushing the appropriate button. <br />
<br />
With not wanting to leave the side of the car, I saw a nice looking man pull up in his car in front of us and in a frantic mess I began to quickly explain what happened and begged for him to get a manager from inside the store for help. I know that sometimes stores actually have a tool they can use to unlock doors and I was hoping for this to be the case. The man, who I later learned his name was John, clarified with this obviously-pregnant-and-panic-stricken-lady-whose-2-year-old-is-locked-in-her-car-with-her-phone-keys-and-wallet, that the best option would be to call Triple A. <br />
<br />
I went on to explain that I do have roadside assistance with my insurance company but all the information is locked in my wallet in the car. So, this nice man offered to call from his phone and to use his Triple A card to make the phone call. I was seriously soooo thankful! He proceeded to call and I meanwhile continued to try to convince Hudson to push the button on our key chain.<br />
<br />
Once the tow truck was on it's way and we were told it would be about 15 minutes (probably the longest 15 minutes of my life), John said he was going to run into the store, but as soon as they called when they were close he would come right out. <br />
<br />
So, this is where the fun continues. John goes in the store and I stand outside of my car with a shopping basket half full of groceries, knocking on the window and talking to Hudson while I watch him thoroughly enjoy playing and exploring the car. At one point, he had his hand on the gear which of course, freaked me out. I imagined him putting the car into nuetral and watching my son and the car roll away. He tried to put the key in the ignition, but thankfully he was doing so with the house key instead of the car key. I was praying for God to intervene, thinking about what a foolish decision I had made all while instructing Hudson not to touch the gear and not to put the keys in the hole.<br />
<br />
Thankfully, he listened and decided to crawl back into the back seat. At this point, he was playing with the latch on his car seat and tried to latch it himself. Then he came over to the back door where I was standing and smiled and tapped on the window. I then asked him to try to open the door... which he has never done before. But, after showing him from the outside to pull the latch, he tried it... and yet, it still wouldn't open! I then began to tell him to push the red button hoping the lock button looked red and if it did that he would be able to push it. He tried opening it a few more times, but then he found coins in the side door (which I had no idea were even there). <br />
<br />
So, the fun continued for Hudson. With so much joy in his face with his new found treasure, he immediately climbed back into the front seat and proceeded to put the coin in the cassette player. I knew what he was going to do, because he has tried putting small things in the cassette player before. I coached him out of this decision, so he decided maybe the air vent would be a better option... NO!!! I again convinced him not to put the coin in the vent when he decide that yes, yes the cassette player would be the best option for a new home for this little coin. And so, the coin went in.<br />
<br />
At this point, I am hoping the coin in our cassette player is the worst of the consequences. Mind you strangers are walking by and starring as I am standing alone next to our grocery cart outside of our truck talking very loudly to Hudson inside the truck. Talk about embarrassing. Oh and the guy gathering the carts, even offered to help me finish unloading my cart. Anyway, after Hudson discovered the joy of putting a coin in it's new found home, he quickly climbed back into the back seat to grab yet another coin. And yes, he gave this coin a new home in the cassette player as well. <br />
<br />
Still waiting for the tow truck and for John to come back, the fun continues. Hudson looks at me smiling and picks up my coffee that I had set in the cup holder. He picked it up with one hand by the lid of the cup. I of course, told him to take two hands and put it back. He listens, only to pick it up again. Now I am thinking about how it is going to spill coffee all over him (although, I knew it probably wasn't very hot at this point), but I was imagining the coffee spilling all over him and the interior of our truck that we are wanting to try sell in the next couple of months. I again told him it was coffee and hot and to use two hands to put it down. He listened again (thankfully) and went back into the drivers seat to pretend he was driving.<br />
<br />
About this time, John comes out and I see the tow truck pulling up. Hudson still completely unaware of what was going on and continues to play. As the tow truck man is walking towards me about 2 parking spaces away, Hudson climbed into the passenger seat and OPENED THE DOOR!!!! <br />
<br />
I could not believe it. After all of that, he just opened the door. I profusely thanked John and the tow truck man for their help. Gathered my sanity and strapped my son into his car seat. <br />
<br />
Never again will I do anything other than strap him in BEFORE unloading the car. <br />
<br />
At one point, John said how quickly kids grow up and this will just be a story to tell. I knew he was right, but I almost burst into tears. I just couldn't believe I let something like this happen. I have heard about these kinds of stories, but normally I am pretty cautious. Goes to show, you can't control everything and life just happens.<br />
<br />
When I finally got a hold of Travis (who was in a studio all day recording), he couldn't believe what happened. After hearing that we were fine the first question he had was, did you get the coins out of the cassette player? Yes, yes I did. I just used a few long wooden skewers I had in the kitchen and guided them out. <br />
<br />
So, we are safe. The car is fine. And I now have learned my lesson. Someday I will tell Hudson this story and remember the truth of what John said... these kids will grow so quickly, this will one day just be a story. <br />
<br />
The token picture of the coffee that began all the madness...<br />

And I do plan on posting about all our summer activities and things God has been doing in our lives.

Here is just a little sample... <br />

However, today is a great day to rejoin the blogging world, because today is Travis' birthday! <br />
<br />
I am so thankful for a man who has such a strong work ethic and who doesn't settle for living average. He is always striving to become more like Christ and he is so driven to encourage the church to be the bride that God has called us to be. He is an amazing father to Hudson and really lives and loves so selflessly. He has a backbone which is rare to find sometimes in guys these days. He really is the man of our house and I am often so overwhelmed by the love he has for us. I have learned so much about our Father's love by being loved by Travis. He is insanely talented not only as a musician or as a song writer, but he has the gift of being good at anything he puts his mind to.<br />
<br />
Travis, Hudson and I love you so much and we are beyond blessed that God has allowed us to be a part of your life. Thank you for being the man that you are!<br />

We rented a little cottage right on the ocean and just enjoyed a very relaxing laid back vacation. We relaxed on the beach, played games, ate a ton of amazing food, took Hudson to the park and just enjoyed each other's company. It was really nice to get away and just be with family.

text-align: left;">A couple of weeks ago, I had the opportunity to go to Jenness Park in Northern California to help lead worship with my friend from college, Merea. The retreat was for the ministers' wives of the Southern Baptist Convention, so there were women from all over the state of California. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">I have a few friends from college who have always asked if I was going, but I have never been able to make it. I was really excited to be able to go this year and it was so much fun catching up with other CBU alumni who are serving at other churches across the state. We took a CBU girls picture, but I didn't have my camera, so I have will have to get it later. There were about 20 of us there!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Merea and I have played and sang together all through college and we lead worship together for a women's retreat about 3 years ago. It was sooo great getting to spend time with her again and I just love her voice and her heart for the Lord. It was so refreshing to get quality time with her. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Then there is Noemy. All I can say is that she is amazing. She is from Spain and has studied violin in conservatories throughout her life. This week she is actually at Juilliard University playing for a special event that only amazing violinist are invited to. She is the kind of musician that when you hear her play, you can't help but to cry. Merea and I kept looking at each other just laughing at how amazing she was. Merea would sing a line for her and Noemy could instantly play it back on her violin. I could go on and on, but seriously probably one of the most talented musicians I have ever played with. And she her heart for the Lord is just as sweet. I am so glad to call her a friend :)</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />

It was great to spend a little time with her and she did a amazing job speaking!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhBCu3Uo0F0TSvZB7W0oMNKkNK2l6tXOPGqvBAq8DtcMFOlPGx4PXCQDy0uxYojZDlezLnUKMjDuicEGa3MXDrZuQXka_xG7IYTxDjR3yUCE-5Yw0LHEXNdxqd3lLRxem_Kc49nb0-pKIQ/s1600/IMG_5975.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhBCu3Uo0F0TSvZB7W0oMNKkNK2l6tXOPGqvBAq8DtcMFOlPGx4PXCQDy0uxYojZDlezLnUKMjDuicEGa3MXDrZuQXka_xG7IYTxDjR3yUCE-5Yw0LHEXNdxqd3lLRxem_Kc49nb0-pKIQ/s400/IMG_5975.JPG" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">In college, I played piano for the worship team and even for a couple of years when Trav was the worship leader. However, since we have been married I have been involved in other ministries at church. So, it was really fun to get a chance to play again and it really made me value my husband even more. I think I just get used to how talented he is and to his genuine and sincere heart for worship. Being a part of leading again, just made me realize even more the calling that God has placed on Travis' life. </div>travis and hayleyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18342749533387822618noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7528054716897492040.post-27375920313787539952011-06-05T15:51:00.000-07:002011-06-05T15:51:44.357-07:00Mother's Day<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">I am still about a month behind, but on my way to catching up :) For mother's day this year, it started out by receiving two really sweet cards from Travis and Hudson... and the news that Travis was going to take me shopping for some clothes.

What else could a 2 year old ask for? :) We had a beach barbeque with family and a few of our closest friends. The weather was amazing and it was just a really relaxed time enjoying the company of those who came to celebrate the life of little Hud bud. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />

It is just amazing to watch how much he has learned in the last year. From being a tiny infant, to crawling, walking, running, talking, jumping, climbing and even being potty trained. It astounds us how quickly children learn and absorb the world around them. Hudson has been such a blessing to us and we are continually thankful for the gift of Hudson in our lives.<br />
<br />
For his birthday we ended up spending about 3 days celebrating. The day before Hudson's birthday Travis had the day off, so we spent the day at the beach eating a picnic lunch and chasing birds. Then on our way home we stopped at Hudson's favorite park. Later that evening we went back to the beach and ate dinner on the pier. Hudson's favorite part of dinner was the huge mud pie we ordered for him after dinner. Hudson loves ice cream, so it was like a dream come true having so much ice cream in front of him.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">Our picnic lunch consisted of the left overs from Easter lunch the day before and it made for delicious left overs :)</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi2IGetJ56ZLCY30oCRPocCyFTJNVaIsPmZoC9rMMflI6bz1UwvdTYHT4G2xhNvTjhFg6C6ndmyD9T2bOdckOo0tbwO2lhZ0SGn0oU8bm0Q0etFOgBs1HREPnD210IXpjXlwlprqBCs3sI/s1600/IMG_5779.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi2IGetJ56ZLCY30oCRPocCyFTJNVaIsPmZoC9rMMflI6bz1UwvdTYHT4G2xhNvTjhFg6C6ndmyD9T2bOdckOo0tbwO2lhZ0SGn0oU8bm0Q0etFOgBs1HREPnD210IXpjXlwlprqBCs3sI/s400/IMG_5779.JPG" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Here is just a video of Hudson chasing the birds... not much to it... but his Ohio grandparents would appreciate it:</div><div style="text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="349" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/PR134cm1S-A" width="425"></iframe></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
