It’s been way to long since I’ve written an actual post vs.
just sending pictures from my phone. So much has happened in the last month and
I need to write this out before I forget it all!
Hudson’s 2nd
Birthday!
It’s hard to believe he’s two years old. Not because he’s
small, or not talking, or running, or doing everything in his power to be
independent… It’s because these last two years have gone WAY too fast. Like
scary fast.
Anyways – here’s some updates on Huddy:
·
36” tall and 34 lbs.
·
Head size is 99%
·
Size 6 diapers
·
Running, jumping, climbing, spinning,
somersaulting – overall a VERY active guy
·
Loves fruit – I think his new favorites are
blackberries and cuties
·
Sings ABCs on repeat in the mornings
·
Goes to bed at 7:30 and sleeps until a little before
7:00 most mornings
·
Still doing a 1-2 hour nap after lunch
·
Mimics everything you say… especially his daddy
and Cole
·
LOVES his brother but they are for sure starting
to act like brothers – bickering over toys, wrestling, stealing food… ok, maybe
that’s just Huddy!
·
Still in his crib but that will have to change
soon
·
Is obsessed with Jason – I don’t matter if he’s
anywhere in the house
·
Is a motor head – loves cars, trucks,
motorcycles. Anything with an engine
·
Is very smart and funny – and he knows it!
·
Still sleeps with his monkey every night but
throws him on the floor every morning (not sure why I think that’s so funny)
·
Is still charming all the ladies at school… and
everyone else in his life!
House:
About a month ago we found a house on Weaver Lake that both
J and I loved. We hadn’t really been looking to move, but kept our eye on the
market for anything that might force our hand. This one did! It’s a little
bigger than our current house but it’s on the lake with a sandy beach and a big
yard. After going back and forth with the owners we realized we needed to get
our house on the market in order to get our lake house. We started cleaning,
decluttering, fixing up small things… and then put it on the market last
Thursday night. On Friday we had an offer (after 13 showings) and Saturday we
accepted it! Inspections are tomorrow (4/21) and if all goes well we will be
closing a moving on May 25h! We are now accepting applications for friends who
want to help us move. Payment will be a one year reserved beach chair anywhere on
our property!
Cole:
It’s crazy how much someone can change in 6 months. Around
Cole’s 5th birthday we were struggling with attention and behavior
issues at home and at school. He was still a great kid but he was not the agreeable,
fun loving, enjoyable boy he had been for the last 4 years. Besides getting him
to bed earlier, I can honestly say that we haven’t changed our routine with him
too much – I truly think it’s him just maturing – because in the past 6 months
he is a totally awesome kid! He listens perfectly at school, and almost
perfectly at home. He’s kind and one of the funniest people I know. His
teachers comment on it almost weekly and it’s made everyone a lot happier! He’s
really into drawing and writing. Kindergarten is going to be a piece of cake
for this kid! His mini-mite hockey season ended about a month ago so now he’s
playing spring league hockey, taking taekwondo and will start soccer in July.
He’s riding his two-wheel bike so fast now that we can’t keep up on foot and is
excited to be able to fish every day at our new house. Cole shocks Jason and I
every day with how smart and articulate he is. He also has a bursting out
laughing with his comedic timing and wit. I’m not biased, this kid is seriously
funny [he takes after me]. Cole will start school at Rush Creek in the Fall –
fulltime kindergarten and before and after school at Primrose.
That’s all I have time for now – but add in some major work
changes for me, Jason being a one-man moving machine, summer plans and a
million other things… we’re not short on chaos at the Rogowski house.
‘Til next time!
