Things have been super busy around the Hall House this past month.
First off, we celebrated a wonderful Christmas! Hudson was so much fun this year (even though he was more interested in the paper and boxes than actual gifts). My parents came down a few days before Christmas and were able to get some quality Hud time in. They were also total rockstars in the "putting Christmas toys together" department. Apparently only novice parents wait until Christmas Eve to put together the presents. Lesson learned (even though my mom & dad did all the hard work!).
That evening we attended the Christmas Eve service at our church. The part I got to see was great :) We took turns entertaining Hudson outside because he was not having the whole sitting down thing.
Later on, Santa came to visit! This was the first Christmas I had not spent in Monroe so it was a little bittersweet. I'm definitely excited about starting new traditions and so thankful my parents were able to be here!
Christmas morning, Drew's parents came over and Hudson opened his presents and played on the play-set gifted to him by his grandparents. He loved it!
Trips were made to Bainbridge and Monroe to celebrate with our extended families. The rest of our break was spent reading and playing, some days not even getting out of our pajamas :)
We've spent the last few weeks attempting to get ourselves back into a normal routine. Also, Valentine's prep has begun! Holidays are so much fun with a kid!
