I blinked.

Paul Hudson,

I did what everyone told me not to do. I blinked. I blinked.....and now you are 9 months old. You are crawling everywhere, pulling up on furniture and demanding everyone's attention. You are saying bye bye and dada consistently, but refuse to say mama. Ill just tell you its driving me nuts. Every time I model "mama" for you, you respond with "dada". And yes, dada is eating it up, of course. You have had ear infections recently, and want to be held and snuggled more, and I happily agree! However, that means our new house work has been neglected. Your B.B. quickly reminded me that a dirty house will always be there, but you wont always be in it. So, for now I will hold you for as long as you want! And if you never want to leave my house, that's perfectly fine with me too! :) I started a new job and we have moved to Starkville. You are loving having more room to crawl and chase Meeko. Your uncle Adam and Aunt Alysca are loving having you down the street as well. You have a great babysitter right now who has 3 girls, and from what I can tell, youre totally the ladies man. Such a flirt! You love going to Senatobia to visit Granna and Paw, Big Daddy and B.B and Aunt Mal and Uncle Puddin. They all adore you and you never want to sleep when we are there because you're having too much fun being spoiled. Everyone who meets you comments on your bright blue eyes. And I cant disagree with how wonderful they are, I love when you look at me. Every day, I wonder how my heart could get any bigger, and then you make it grow even more. Sometimes I want time to slow down, and then I think about all the things God has in store for you, and I cant wait to see you learn, grow, and love. Hudson man, you are such a big blessing in our family! I cannot believe that out of all the mothers in the world, I got picked! Oh how I love you oh so much! Happy 9 months of life!

Mama
