Halloween Fun

2009-11-03T17:15:00.000-08:00

It was fun to watch Judson get into Halloween this year. After about a month of dress rehearsals, Judson finally didn't get upset when I put him in his lion costume. By the big night, he was ready to hit the neighborhood with his candy bag. My friend, Kim, spent the weekend with us so she joined us on our wagon ride around the block. He had a blast going door to door and even held his bag out and said "trick-or-treat." I would have liked to have gotten more pictures, but in the process of taking pictures with my camera and with my phone, I stepped on my camera. It has now gone to camera heaven. (hint, hint, Santa!)

Fun Visit With Family

2009-09-27T18:40:00.000-07:00

This weekend Jackson and Jeremy came to visit while Melissa was having her girl's weekend in Austin. Judson was looking forward to Jackson coming all week. He couldn't wait to play "tractors" and "trains" with him. The boys did enjoy playing together, and Judson got some much needed lessons on sharing. I took them to the Barn Sale on Saturday morning, and they did wonderful. They also got to see their favorite playmate, Aunt Glenda, and spend some time with Granny. Judson was sad to see Jackson go, but we look forward to our next visit!

Bye Bye Summer

2009-08-29T19:39:00.000-07:00

My summer's seem to go faster every year, and this one was no different. I enjoyed my time at home too much, and it has been hard getting back into a routine. Judson on the other hand, bounced into his first day back to daycare like he never left the place. He didn't even look back at his mommy. Since it has been a long time since I posted, I am posted pictures from the last couple of weeks.

He and I were playing in his room the day before school started. I wanted to enjoy one more day home with my little man.

The first day of school. He looks way too grown up.
Trip to the zoo with Jackson. He was soooo excited.

First Trip to the Beach

2009-07-30T19:03:00.000-07:00

Jarrod and I decided to join Jeremy, Melissa, and Jackson on a last minute trip to the beach. We took the boys to Orange Beach and learned what it was like to vacation with toddlers. Melissa and I braved the trip down there with the boys by ourselves in their car. Thank the lord for DVD players! Judson introduced Jackson to Barney and I am pretty sure Melissa is hoping Jackson forgets about the big purple dinosaur. We made it with only a few minor meltdowns.

Once we got there, the boys loved being together. They enjoyed playing in the sand at the beach, being silly in the condo, and Jackson even convinced Judson to play in the pool a little bit. (He has been scared of the pool all summer.) It is so fun to watch these cousins grow up together.

On the way home, Melissa and I got smart and made the boys ride with Jarrod and Jeremy a little bit. I think they appreciated their quiet ride down there after that experience. All in all, the boys did great, and I think it was even relaxing for the adults as well. Judson was sad for our beach vacation to end. He has been asking for "Jackson" and the "condo" all day. Maybe next year, buddy!

Our baby is 2!

2009-06-24T19:54:00.000-07:00

Today was Judson's actual birthday. I tried to make it special by doing some of his favorite things. We got donuts for breakfast, met daddy at McDonald's for lunch, pizza for dinner, and birthday cake for desert. Notice how his favorite things all revolve around food. He gets that one from his mother. At McDonald's we saw some of his friends from church, and he got to play with them on the playground. Tonight I had to work at VBS, but his great-grandparents took him to the farm to see the "moos" another one of his favorite things. I think all of that made for a pretty good birthday.

Of course, Jarrod and I can't believe that he is already 2. We look at him and wonder where our little baby went. He has turned into such a fun little boy that his mother and daddy just adore!

Judson's 2nd Birthday Party

2009-06-22T19:28:00.000-07:00

Saturday we celebrated Judson's 2nd birthday. We invited family and close friends over for barbeque and dirt cake. Since Judson's favorite thing to do these days is dig in the dirt, that was the theme of the party. He had been excited all week for his birthday party and couldn't wait for cousin Jackson to come. He enjoyed every minute of his party, and he ended the night muddy as usual.

Waiting for his party to start.
He was so excited when cousin Jackson arrived. All week he had been saying "Jackson come."

Memorial Day Weekend

2009-05-27T15:03:00.000-07:00

Judson and I went with Gran Jan and Poppa to my Aunt Joni's for Memorial Day weekend. Friday was my last day of school so it was fun to get out of town and relax for a while. Saturday we went shopping (of course!), hung out by the pool, and that afternoon I met my friend Kim. On Saturday night, the Louis clan introduced us to yogurtland. It is a little yogurt shop in the middle of an Asian shopping center. The yogurt was great, and we had fun exploring the shopping center especially the grocery store. It had many fruits and vegetables I had never heard of and LOTS of fresh fish. The smell kept us out of that section for any length of time. Judson did great in the car, and we can't wait to go back.

We got a new boat!

2009-04-24T20:27:00.000-07:00

Well, Judson did, anyway. Our sweet neighbors called us tonight and said that they had a toy that their grandson had outgrown and wondered if Judson would like it. Judson and I walked over there, and it was a really nice toy boat that rocked. When Judson first saw it, he wouldn't even sit down in it. He was more interested in redecorating their backyard than the boat. After we got it home, though, he couldn't get enough of it. Now, I just have to find a place to put it. Also, note the shirt in the pictures. His wonderful mother had fallen behind on laundry this week, and he had no clean pajamas in his drawer. So, I pulled out this t-shirt that someone gave me before he was born. He is showing everyone his Smackover Buckaroo Spirit.

Check out my new boat. I like it when daddy makes it go high.

"Ahoy, mate."
Cheesing for the camera.

Momma's Little Helper

2009-04-14T18:31:00.001-07:00

This past summer, when I would remember to water my flowers, Judson always wanted to help me. The Easter Bunny must have taken note of this because he left him a little watering pail. This afternoon he went and got it and wanted to water the flowers. Since I haven't planted any flowers yet, I let him water the ivy on the back porch. He was very persistent about the pail being "mine" and wouldn't let momma help at all. When I do get my flowers planted, it looks like they won't go thirsty!

Showing momma he can water like a big boy.
This pot looks pretty bad so I'm going to dump it all on there.

Off to the next pot.

Three Day Weekend

2009-04-12T18:58:00.000-07:00

Judson and I got to enjoy a three day weekend. All these breaks are spoiling us and making us ready for summer. I wish I had had my camera for everything we did this weekend, but, of course, I didn't. On Thursday, Judson had an Easter party at school and hunted eggs that afternoon at Gran Jan's. Friday we helped Uncle Matt move into his new house. Judson loved being able to run around in a house with no furniture. Saturday night, we took Judson to a rodeo. He loved clapping and watching the "moo's". He did pretty good for an hour. This morning we woke up and checked out what the Easter Bunny left. Then we were off to church and Grandmother's for lunch. He got more goodies and all the attention he wanted at Grandmother's. Too bad our fun weekend has to come to an end. I'm not looking forward to Monday!

Playing in the Daffodils

2009-03-02T19:00:00.000-08:00

Everyday when we get home, Judson gets out of the car and runs and gets in his little car so that I can push him around the block. He doesn't even want to give me time to change clothes. Today I was pushing him around the block, and I decided to stop and try to get some pictures of him in our neighbor's daffodils. Unfortunately, he wasn't interested in the pretty flowers. I managed to get a few of him, but in most of them he is running away from me. This is why I don't have many professional pictures of Judson. It would be a big waste of money.

He has become very into "abbits" lately.

During the photo shoot, he just wanted to get back into his little red car.

Saturday Afternoon Brownies

2009-02-21T15:28:00.000-08:00

Judson has become a daddy's boy lately, and he wants to be outside all the time. Since Jarrod was gone most of the day and it was raining, I was listening to "daddy" and "fried rice" a lot. ("fried rice" is what it sounds like when he says "outside") I decided to make brownies to take his mind off Jarrod not being here and not being able to go outside. Of course, I had to lick the bowl so I let him lick the spoon. From the evidence below, I think he liked it, and it kept him entertained for awhile.

We've been tagged

2009-01-27T16:30:00.000-08:00

Melissa tagged us...and we thought this would be fun. So, here's what you do:
1. Go to your 4th folder where you store your photos.
2. Select the 4th photo (no exceptions).
3. Post the picture with an explanation and link it back to your tagger.
4. Tag 4 people do do the same.

This is last year about this time. Judson was just starting to eat baby food, and I am pretty sure he is eating sweet potatoes. Those were his favorite. He would get so excited that he would grab the spoon from me as I feed him. This explains the mess on his face and hand. I had hoped that as he got older he wouldn't be such a messy eater, but no such luck. You should see him on spaghetti night!

We tag Chris Wright, Beth Ward, Amber Bagley, and Katie Holland

Fun Times

2009-01-22T20:18:00.000-08:00

This is how Judson spent his Martin Luther King Day. The bottom pic is my favorite. Heather said that she was sitting in the living room and Judson was playing in his room and he comes running into the living room wanting her to come to his room with a sense of urgency. She walked in and he had pulled every Kleenex from that box and I guess he was very proud of himself.
Judson loves playing with bubbles
Judson loves to drag all his toys out. He just doesn't like to pick them up.

Matching Scars

2009-01-01T19:10:00.000-08:00

I know that Heather mentioned in an earlier post that I cut my finger opening presents and had to get 4 stitches last Saturday night. I had told her that I was not able to change diapers, give baths, or help out with anything around the house. I was driving home on Tuesday and Heather called and said that she cut her finger opening a can of peas. Luckily Tuesday night is the late night at the clinic in Smackover so we were able to avoid the ER twice. Notice it is the same hand, same finger. We are taking all of the sharp objects out of our house for the new year.

Memorable Christmas

2008-12-27T18:45:00.000-08:00

This Christmas will be one that we will never forget. Unfortunately for Jarrod, he will always have a scar to remember it by. He had to make a trip to the local doctor's office to get four stitches after cutting his finger with a knife. He was trying to get one of Judson's toys out of the box. Other than that little mishap, we had a wonderful Christmas. We spent Thursday wtih my parents, Friday at grandmother's house, and Saturday at my memaw's. Judson was a little more into it this year, and he got many new toys for me to pick up every night.

Micheal Phelps in training?

2008-12-15T18:41:00.000-08:00

I guess we are going to skip the swimming lessons and go straight to Olympic training.

We got a new maid

2008-11-12T18:46:00.000-08:00

Judson has an obsession with getting under the sink and pulling out soaps and other things that I have stolen from hotels. One of things under there was a shower cap. I thought it would be funny to see what he thought about the shower cap. As soon as I put it on, he decided he wanted to wear it really bad. He thought it was hilarious so I decided to snap a quick pic. It looks like we have him training for a career in bathroom management.

Our Little Stinker

2008-11-02T17:45:00.000-08:00

We only took Judson to a few houses on Friday night, but I think he liked getting treats. He even made friends with a monkey along the way. The "monkey" was my brother's best friend's daughter, Delaney. She kept calling him "skunk", and he would follow her wherever she went. It was pretty funny to watch them together.

He doesn't look so sure about the skunk outfit his mother picked out for him.
Trying to get a picture with him and Delaney. He was more interested in riding his stick horse.

The heart says it all.

Fall Festival and More

2008-10-26T18:59:00.000-07:00

Last weekend we went to Dallas to watch Heather's cousin Drew play football. We went to see Joe, Jeff, and Beth for a few hours while we were there. This weekend, we had the fall festival at our church. Judson enjoyed playing with the kids and playing the games. His favorite was the fishing booth. His least favorite was getting his face painted.

Lazy Sunday

2008-10-05T14:25:00.000-07:00

Judson has been sick all weekend so we stayed home from church this morning. From the pictures below, you can tell that he is feeling much better. He decided that he needed to clean out mommy's cabinet and try on daddy's shirt. After these pics where taken, we took a little drive to keep us both from going stir crazy and to make sure that he didn't destroy anything else.

Pulling out all of mommy's placemats and napkins.

Giving mommy the sweet face so that she won't get mad at him.

For some reason, he wanted me to put Jarrod's Arkansas shirt on him. Maybe he was missing his daddy since he had to work. As you can see, he had a little trouble walking in it.

The Last Few Weeks

2008-09-22T17:48:00.000-07:00

Judson has done a lot of growing up the last few weeks. He has finally gotten used to preschool, and his teachers say that he is a completely different child. He also has learned a few new "tricks" as you will see from the pictures below.

Not only does he like his bear, but he also loves his blanket. That one he gets from his daddy.

He stands up on everything including his high chair which makes feeding time a little difficult.

Bringing mommy her purse after I told him that we were going to go somewhere.

This is how we usually find his hair in the mornings. He gets his nappy hair from his daddy, too.

Silly Boys

2008-09-01T18:58:00.000-07:00

I went to Little Rock for the weekend and went to the game with Jeremy. Heather, Judson, Mom and Aunt Glenda came up on Sunday to hang out with Jackson. The boys are really starting to pay attention to each other now and they run wild all over the house. Here are a few pics of the boys being silly.

Getting ready for duck season

2008-09-01T18:51:00.000-07:00

I got some new decoys for Christmas last year and finally got around to rigging them up for duck season. Judson helped me get out all of the weights out of the box and also pulled all of the decoys out of the bag for me. He is such a great helper. It won't be long and he will be wanting to go with the guys hunting.

Back to School

2008-08-18T17:26:00.001-07:00

Unfortunately, my short time as a stay at home mom had to come to an end. It was my first day back to work and Judson's first day back to daycare. I am pretty sure I had a better day than he did. When I picked him up, his eyes were red and puffy from crying most of the day. He did take a nap there which was an improvement from last year. (I bet his teachers were glad when he went to sleep.) I wanted to get some pictures of him this morning, but, of course, we were running late. I snapped these two this afternoon. He looks like such a big boy with his backpack on.

Bears and Baskets

2008-08-07T19:12:00.001-07:00

Lately, Judson's favorite toy has been his bear. He has even started sleeping with it. In the mornings, he will not get out of bed unless he has his bear with him. Jarrod and I have also found something he will do that does not require us chasing him around the house. He loves to play in his toy basket. He will do this for like 10 minutes at a time which is a record for our little busy body.

Eating breakfast with his bear.

Outside Boy

2008-07-23T17:36:00.000-07:00

Judson's favorite thing to do is to go outside. Right after he eats breakfast, he gets out of his high chair and goes to find some shoes. (He knows he has to have shoes on to go outside.) The other day he brought me his camoflage crocs that his grandmother bought him. After I put them on him, I had him pose for me to show them off. Unfortunately for his momma, after the picture was taken, we had to go outside in the wonderful South Arkansas heat. I can't wait for the fall.

Fourth of July Weekend

2008-07-06T11:03:00.000-07:00

Judson and I went to my aunt's house in Dallas for the weekend. Judson did not like the pool too much and screamed most of the time that he was in there. He did enjoy visiting his family and playing with his cousins. As usual, he was the center of attention.

Clinging to mommy in the pool.

I'd rather play with these sticks than be in the pool.

Judson's Birthday Party

2008-06-29T18:10:00.000-07:00

We had Judson's birthday party on Saturday night. He wasn't very interested in his cake, but he did enjoy entertaining everyone. He also enjoyed all of his presents and couldn't wait for us to get them out of the boxes. We missed you Uncle Jeremy, Aunt Melissa, and Cousin Jackson. When you come and visit next time, you will have to check out all of Judson's cool new toys.

Playing with his balloons.

Hurry up and get this out of the box!

I would rather smile at everyone than eat my cake.

Happy Birthday Judson!

2008-06-24T19:26:00.000-07:00

We can't believe our little man is one year-old. Jarrod and I both could not love and adore one little person more than we do Judson. He makes us smile, laugh, and only sometimes get aggravated. ( Like when he bangs daddy's golf club on the tile floor. I keep telling myself one day he will be a little Phil.) It is so much fun to watch him grow and develop into his own person.

Wedding Weekend

2008-06-23T18:40:00.000-07:00

This weekend our friends Ryan and Michelle got married at Garvan Gardens in Hot Springs. They asked Judson to be in the wedding along with two other babies. Their part was to be pulled down the aisle in a wagon by the flower girl. On the day of the wedding, Judson had not had a nap all day and was in a very bad mood. When it was his turn to go, I put him in the wagon and he starts screaming. Once the wagon was moving, he stops screaming, but he stands up in the middle of the wagon. Fearing that he might try to flip out, someone in the audience picks him up and brings him out the back door. All of this happens while the poor bride is waiting to walk in. I don't think anyone else will be asking him to be in a wedding anytime soon.

Baby Dedication

2008-06-16T20:27:00.000-07:00

Our church does their baby dedications on Father's Day. Since Judson was born at the end of June, he barely missed it last year. This past Sunday he finally got to participate in the baby dedication service. When it was his turn to go down front, Jarrod and I let him walk down since he was being such a wiggle worm in the pew. I guess when you wait almost a year to get dedicated, you get to walk down the aisle by yourself. I wish I had gotten a picture of it, but here are a few we did get.

Fun in the Sun

2008-06-16T19:56:00.000-07:00

We got Judson a new pool for his birthday but decided to give it to him earlier so Heather could start his swimming lessons. As soon as I pulled it out of the box, he wanted to help daddy get it all ready. The kid is like his Uncle Jeremy, he isn't scared of work, he just sits down right beside it. Heather said that he hated the pool at first but is really starting to like it. We also got him this nice speedo swimsuit like his daddy's. I will not be posting those pictures.

Future Pledge Brothers?

2008-06-07T20:18:00.000-07:00

Judson finally got to meet his good buddy Tyson Seyler tonight. Me and Heather and Joe and Amanda met Kris and Whitney to eat dinner in Camden, it was fun to watch the kids playing together.

We had a great memorial day weekend, Judson caught his first fish and got to play in the yard. He is looking forward to spending the summer with his mommy.

Pedal to the Metal!!!!

2008-04-23T18:53:00.000-07:00

Judson went from taking a few steps to walking more than crawling. I am telling you the kid does not sit still. His hobbies include pulling all of his books out of the bookshelf and dumping all his toys out of the basket. He thinks that is hilarious.

First Steps

2008-04-12T17:44:00.000-07:00

Judson woke up Friday morning with a double ear infection, he was fussy all day and pretty much kept us up all night. We finally got his fever under control today and he was ready to play. He played hard all afternoon and finally decided to leave his push toys and take some steps, I was able to get one on video. He still isn't completely sure about not holding onto anything.

New way to take a bath

2008-03-30T11:40:00.001-07:00

Judson has decided that he is going to start standing up the entire time he is in the bathtub. This was funny at first but it is pretty hard to wash him and hold him during the bath. Old Man Butt

Finally posting some Easter Pics

2008-03-30T11:23:00.000-07:00

I finally got around to posting some pics from Easter, Heather took Judson to have his picture made in the daffodils that afternoon and he was not very cooperative. At least we got a few good ones.

First Snow!!!

2008-03-07T16:15:00.000-08:00

Judson finally got to see some snow for the first time. He watched out the window until his momma finally took him out for a stroll. Maybe now we can finally get to Spring.

Begging mom to let him go outside.

Mischievous

2008-02-18T18:56:00.001-08:00

Judson is becoming a mischievous kid these days. He is pretty much into anything that he can get his hands on and when you tell him no, he gives you this little look. It is very hard not to smile at him.

Busy little boy

2008-02-06T18:34:00.000-08:00

Judson is a busy little boy these days. He is crawling all around the house following us wherever we go. He is also pulling up, and we can't leave him for a second. His favorite thing to do is to pull all of his toys out of his basket and then play with the basket. We can't wait to see what he will do next!

On the Move!

2008-01-14T18:30:00.000-08:00

Judson is about to get this crawling thing down, he can already move all over the floor from one side of the room to another but most of that is from rolling. This video is not the best but it is my first attempt with a video

Big Baller Shot Caller

2008-01-08T17:41:00.000-08:00

Judson got a new basketball game for Christmas. He has been practicing so when his cousin Jackson comes down he can show him how to play.

Messy Eater

2007-12-09T18:45:00.000-08:00

Judson has been eating food for about 3 weeks now, he really likes sweet potatoes, applesauce and oatmeal. He is starting to like green beans a little better now but he made some really bad faces at first. If it is something he really likes then he usually grabs the spoon and holds it in his mouth for a while. You can tell by his hands and mouth that he was really liking his sweet potatoes.
Anything that I can get in my hands, goes straight to the mouth
I forgot to rotate this picture but you can tell what it is. Heather went out the other night to build a fire and this greeted her on the porch. When I got home, I threw a piece of wood at it and it still didn't move.

Happy Thanksgiving!!!

2007-11-25T17:52:00.000-08:00

We had a great Thanksgiving this year, first we went to Morrilton and spent Thanksgiving with Heathers family. Judson got to meet all of his family. He got so much attention, especially from his younger cousins, they all just loved him. Then, Jeremy, Melissa, and Jackson came to Camden so we spent most of the weekend there, the kids are becoming so funny together.

I figured since I haven't updated the blog in a while I would take some pictures of him playing in his exersaucer.

I have just started biting my bottom lip.
Such a proud little boy.

New Things

2007-11-06T19:25:00.000-08:00

Judson has had a really big week so far. I dropped him off at my mom's on Sunday on the way to the deer camp and when I came back he had been rolling over like crazy, I didn't believe my mom at first but we laid him down and he automatically started rolling over. Last night I had to work late and Heather called me and Judson was laughing like crazy on the phone. It was so funny. We also got some really good pictures this weekend at the Daniels Garden in Camden.

He has the cutest little feet. He was wearing socks but he ate them This smile will melt your heart even at 3:00 in the morning. At least that's what his mommy said.

4 months old

2007-10-29T08:24:00.001-07:00

Judson turned 4 months old last week and he is still a growing boy. He weighed almost 14lbs and was 25 inches long. Heather had to go back to work today so I am staying home with Judson because I have to take him to get his immunizations. We had a fun weekend since Jackson came to Camden again.

We managed one smile while he was dressed as the big orange blob.
Judson is starting to not look so small against his cousin Jackson.
My mommy got me this stupid pumpkin costume and my cousin got to be a tiger.

Funny Hat

2007-10-14T18:28:00.000-07:00

Judson has been a sick little boy this week but we managed to get some cute pics of him in his pumpkin hat. He has been coughing and sneezing all weekend but I think he is getting better.

Judson got to see how a big boy plays

Judson got to go visit his cousin Jackson and Aunt Melissa and Uncle Jeremy this weekend. Jackson really got a chance to see how much cooler his Uncle Jarrod is than his daddy.
Judson just told Jackson a funny joke.
Cute little cousins

3 Months Old

2007-09-24T17:32:00.000-07:00

Judson is three months old today, it is amazing how he is developing. You can really tell that his hand eye coordination is starting to develop. He is really starting to gain control of his arms and can grab things and hold on to them.
My momma dressed me up in this stupid pumpkin outfit.

Swimming and Thumb Sucking

Judson has been really busy trying new things over the last two weeks. He went to Dallas for the weekend and stayed with his Uncle Andy and Aunt Joni and played with his cousins. He spent the day swimming and relaxing. He has also discovered his thumb and I think he really likes it.

I don't know who has the better tan?
Mom, this taste way better than my pacifier

Two Months Old with New Pics

Judson turned two months old on Friday. He went to the doctor today for his two month checkup and shots. He took the shots better than expected but has been fussy tonight. He now weighs 11 lbs and is 23 inches long. Here are some recent pics

8 weeks old

2007-08-19T17:03:00.000-07:00

Judson turned 8 weeks old today. Here are a few pics as he continues to grow. We tried out the bumbo seat and dad's shoulders.

Judson's little hat

2007-08-11T20:58:00.000-07:00

Friday morning, Heather brought Judson into the bathroom wearing this little hat so I went and got the camera to take a picture. Shortly after that, I was fully dressed and ready to go to work when Heather asked me to hold Judson so she could start a load of clothes. So I laid him in my lap so he could kick and play and all of a sudden my leg started getting really warm. Needless to say, I had to change clothes and so did he.

Judson's first bath

2007-08-06T18:15:00.000-07:00

Just kidding, we have given Judson many baths but this is the first time that we have used his bathtub. I think he really liked it. He is also finally starting to like his swing. We can put him in it and he will fall asleep without having to be held.

Sweet Baby

2007-07-26T19:12:00.000-07:00

Judson was one month old on Tuesday, he is such a sweet little baby and also a momma's boy. He is starting to sleep a little longer at night. Of course, I have become a really heavy sleeper as of late and barely hear him crying.

A growing boy!

2 Week Birthday

2007-07-08T18:46:00.000-07:00

Judson is two weeks old today so I figured everyone might want to see how much he has changed. He has been a good little boy so far and has not kept us up too much. He goes to the doctor tomorrow so we will know how much he has grown.

The cause of Heather going into Labor!

Grandmother and Judson

Daddy and Judson

Okay, since I am not very good at providing details, I will do my best. Heather woke up Sunday morning about 4:30 having pains and by 6:00 or so we figured out that she was having contractions. This is probably because I worked her in the yard all day Saturday. We made it to the hospital about 8:45 and by the time they had her hooked up to the monitor her contractions were around 3 minutes apart. Shortly after that they handed me a pair of scrubs, it was then was that I realized that we were having our baby that day. Judson was born at 10:29 AM and weighed 7 lbs 7 0zs and measured 20 inches long.

After a two night stay at the hospital we came home and settled in with our new baby boy. We got my mom to stay with us Tuesday night to help since Heather was still a little sore. Heather rested most of the day Tuesday and seemed to be getting around pretty good. Wednesday morning Heather started having a bad headache and was very irritated by sound and light almost like she was having a migraine. We called the doctor's office and they instructed us to go to the hospital as soon as possible. Turns out that where Heather had her spinal did not seal correctly and she was having some fluid leaking internally. They took some blood from her arm and injected it in her back and she instantly felt better. She is 100% better today.

Judson is doing good and seems to be feeding good. He did not sleep great last night so Heather slept with him in the recliner most of the night.

I will go ahead and add a few pics since I typed all of this.
