In other news, Hudson is now officially in his big boy bed! We tried it for nap on Saturday and it did not go well, think jumping up and down and singing! Saturday night he went down without much fight and slept until 9:30 Sunday morning! Since then he has done really well! We did find him out of bed this morning, he was reading books, We have a doorknob safety thing on the door so I am not worried about him getting out of his room, however we will see how long he quietly reads and then decide the best course of action!

Hanging out at the park
This past Sunday we decided to head over to Mead Gardens after the farmers market. We hadn't been since Hudson was around 9 months old so it was great to go back now that he can explore! Mack also loves exploring so my 2 boys had a ton of fun!

Spring Days and A Sad Goodbye
The weather in Orlando has finally turned to spring! After a long winter the temps are in the 70's and 80's now! We have had a lot of fun playing outside in this beautiful weather :)
Hudson loves to push around his little John Deere gator, we actually got him a motorized power wheels one this weekend! He also loves to throw his big red ball while in the backyard, although Mommy does not like it when he throws down into the woods.....after finding a rattle snake I have no desire to go in there!
The start of spring also brought a sad goodbye for us, our friends the Strongs moved to Houston :( Ryan, Natascha, and Maddie spent Thanksgiving with us this year and recently welcomed Abby in December. We will miss them very much but know they will love this new adventure!
Wedding season is starting and we all know what that means......time to kick it into high gear and lose some weight! I am starting with portion control, no snacking, and exercise.......

A day in the life
I thought I would do a day in the life post today for you all. I am going to profile my Thursdays since they are usually the busiest. So here goes....
4:40am.......alarm goes off
5:20am.......roll out of bed and get ready for the day, make breakfast
5:45am.......get in car and drive to work
6:05am.......arrive at work
6:15am.......unlock building, turn off alarm, make coffee, turn on music and computers
6:30am......check in first 2 surgical patients, make charts for next weeks surgeries, check in more patients both surgical and non-surgical
12:00pm....try and eat lunch while still answering the phone and checking patients in and out
5:50pm.....turn off computers, music, and lights, clock-out, turn on alarm if there aren't any overnight patients
5:57pm.....rush out the door and down the street to pick up Hudson before 6
6:00pm....head home
6:30pm....arrive home if traffic is normal, add another 30 minutes if it is Friday
6:45pm.....feed Hudson dinner
7:00pm.....bath time for Hudson
7:30pm....Mack usually arrives home, hop in shower while Mack watches Hudson
8:00pm....Lay out Hudson's clothes for the next day and then put him to bed
9:00pm....go to bed in guestroom (this is done so that I don't wake up Mack in the Morning and so that he doesn't wake me up when he goes to bed)
So that is what life is like when you work 12 hour shifts! It may be a pain but it works for us. We have an awesome babysitter that comes to our house on Thursdays and Fridays to take Hudson to school. I enjoy my days off when I get to hangout with Hudson!
Here is the little guy at his 2yr appt.
Not the best picture but it shows his mood yesterday!

Birthday Party #2 at the Beach
Hudson was lucky enough to have a 2nd Birthday party with his Grandparents! My parents flew down and Mack's drove from Richmond! We decided to rent a house up at New Smyrna Beach so that no one had to stay at a hotel. Hudson loved the beach!






























We had awesome weather Friday, Saturday was too windy for the beach, and of course Sunday was beautiful...when we had to leave!
I am so grateful that our parents are willing to come down here pretty often to see Hudson, he knows all of them by name at this point and just loves being with them!
