I thought I should write a blog, it's been forever! Guys, if you only knew what this little household has dealt with in the last few weeks you would forgive me.
Our cars routers and break pads needed to be changed, leaving it out of commission for two weeks. Luckily, our friends let us borrow them van.
Glen and Hudson got the flu.
I was admitted to the emergency for a hernia I knew nothing about, but was causing me a lot of pain..
I was put on bed rest.
Hudson broke my old laptop, leaving us with no computer, so we had to buy another.
In the last week Hudson has been getting up 3-4 times a night, and going to bed really late, and waking very early. His two top molars are half through.
I guess that leaves me to now! Phew, crappy few weeks.. but it was gravy! Glen is in the Kitchen making me french toast and bacon. What a guy, hey?!
The idea for this blog really has been circulating my brain all week. I feel I have quite a bit of patience for my little guy. But since I'm anemic and I have this painful hernia, and I'm pregnant.. after 10-12 hours of Hudson, I just want to crash. I've little patience for when he screams on the top of his lungs at me because I wont give him a remote control, or really anything.
He's in a stage right now where he likes to defy mama. Screaming at me, hitting me and pretending to bite a object while looking at me very angrily is only a few of his little tricks.
This little boy has grown up so much in the last month. I swear once they hit 12 months, the world gives them a OK to grow up.
I'm learning to deal with his little personality with new patience. The little bit of patience I do have right now.
Luckily I have a amazing husband who at the end of the day usually deals with Hudson's little attitudes with a new outlook. Glen only spends 2-3 hours max a night with Hudson.. so he has all the patience in the world for this little guy.
I can't wait until his molars are in, so we can have a nice break until his two year old molars come in.
As much as I love being a mom, I'm trying to learn to love every aspect of being a mom, even dealing with a angry 20 pound boy. I'm trying to bring the calm, collected and patient approach with Hudson.
I really don't want him to have any of my personalities, which i feel he already does... but I'm trying to come at him very calm so it calms him down.
Does this blog even make sense? We're home from church today because we all went to bed at 2:30 am.. Yes, it was a very long night last night!
I'm going to go grab a coffee from my tassimo maker, enjoy the sunshine outside and the little bit of time I have alone with Glen. Hudson should be up in the next hour or so.
More blogs to come!

Hang in there, Jess. I have so much admiration for you as a wife, as a mama and mostly as a woman. Hudson and Glen (and the new one!) are lucky men to have you in their lives... and vice versa. Your challenges in life build your character. Much love.
It's the hardest job out there!! you are doing an amazing job!!
You girls are too kind!
