Big Boy

Right before our trip to New Orleans Hudson started climbing/falling out of his bed. A couple of times I would be in the other room and Hudson, who was supposed to be in bed, would come in crying. We weren't sure if Hannah was helping him or what and I was far to nervous about leaving them for the weekend anyway to really worry about it. While we were gone, Betty said he did it for her and sure enough when we got home I caught him on the video monitor throwing his leg over the side of the crib and then falling down the rest of the way. Hannah never did this! She started crawling in and out of her bed right before she turned three. Hudson, 2 weeks shy of turning 2 was out of there! That night after we got home we converted his crib to the toddler bed. I am not ready for him to be in a big boy yet. He loves his new bed and has done really well in it. We had to put the child proof lock on the back of the door so he cannot get out on his own but it is a matter of time before he learns to pry them apart like his sister. My baby is growing up too fast! He is a walking, talking, almost two year old! Something clicked and this boy started talking. He says a couple of sentences and his favorite words are car and I'm done. He repeats anything his sister says. He has even started beating up Hannah lately. When she takes something of his, he lets her have it. He is getting time out for biting, hitting, and pinching. What goes around comes around Hannah. He can point to his body parts and name them and loves to tell you the animal and the sound it makes. He can sing all of twinkle twinkle little star and loves to dance. I was walking through Dillards the other day and realized that I no longer shop for babies. My kids are in 2T and 4Ts. They both wear a size 8 1/2 shoe! Hudson weighs as much as Hannah and it won't be too long before he passes her up in height.
