Happy Birthday Hudson!

Oh-My-
My little sweet precious baby boy who I love more that ANYTHING in the entire world is 1 year old! I just cannot believe it! The night of his birth, January 16, 2009 at 6:06pm is still so fresh in my mind. I can remember almost every little detail. I will never forget the instant connection I had with Hudson when he arrived, and I will never forget the bond that Alex and I developed after that day. Alex was so supportive and strong, it made me realize how much we need each other.

Hudson has been the biggest joy and most wonderful gift that God could ever bless me with. What I have done to deserve such a wonderful blessing I will never know. All i know is that I will do everything I can for God to show my appreciation :)

We decided to have his party at Larry's Pizza in Bryant. We have so many family members that there was no way to have it at our house! We dont have very many friends that have children, so it was just mostly family! It turned out just perfect to me! My BFF Lindsay came over early and her and I went to Larrys Pizza and decorated and set everything up. Hudson was so excited! He loved the balloons! We brought his travel highchair from home so he could have a tray to put his smash cake on! His theme was trains! He had on the CUTEST little outfit with a vest with a train on it. THen His cake was a 3D train! All of our family came. And when I say all I mean ALLLLL. All the way down to Hudson's great grandparents! I was SO glad that everyone did too. They all had to drive from out of town. Alex and I both have divorced parents and those type of situations can get crazy sometimes when you get them all in a room together! HA! But I am so proud of my family, and Alex's. I am so thankful that we can all celebrate these occasions together and enjoy each other! It means so much to me to have both of my parents and step parents there on such a big day for our little family!

I was really glad we chose Larrys because they have the game room! The kids and adults that were there really enjoyed that! I think everyone had a really good time! Hudson got lots of gifts of course! My brother and sister in law got him this bulldozer thing that he is obsessed with! LOL He got some really cute clothes too. He really didnt need anything because you can imagine what all he got for Christmas! Its scary at our house! We need to add on! LOL

We had a smash cake for Hudson of course and he was Super excited about it! He wasnt all that messy with it though! He took his time just slowing eating with his hands haha I took off his shirt because the bright blue icing would have stained for sure! He was the cutest thing! When we all sang Happy Birthday he grinned from ear to ear! He loves being the center of attention!

The great part about it was, when it was all over, the Larrys Pizza crew cleaned up! That was awesome! Because you can imagine our mess! Everything turned out great! I was so pleased with the way it all went!! Here are some pictures from the party!

How cute is he!! Isn't the first birthday so exciting!! I loved doing everything to get ready for it!! Having birthdays so close to Christmas is very overwhelming, I agree! Thank you so much for the prayers for Cash and the advice! I pray that no one has to see their child in that state!
