This past week my BF Alison came to visit with her 3 month old son Avi. He is such a cutie and a good baby too. I was so glad to see them both. We were scheduled to go visit them in Atlanta over New Year's, but we were dealing with Connor's ears & I didn't want to bring a sick kid to a new born. So, she brought her new born to me. Pretty nice, huh?
We were all set to go to our friends Paul & Marci's annual super bowl party, but Connor woke up from a nap on Sunday with 104.9 fever. I have never seen a fever that high. Turns out he has a sinus infection. But, so far his ears are clear (she says with fingers crossed!). He stayed home from school yesterday & I just about lost my mind by the end of the day. Poor little guy was just miserable. He is doing much better today. I feel bad because he wants to go to the park and play but I really want him to rest. Maybe tomorrow we will go once he has been on antibiotics for a full 48 hours. 
Hudson is doing great. On Thursday he took 16 steps. I am so not ready for this! It is exciting to see him reach these milestones. But, at the same time it means he is getting further away from being my "baby". He said his first official word. Other than Mama & Dada. He said "eat". Of course he did! He started a couple of days ago & this morning we heard him in his crib at 6am saying "eat eat eat". I told him that no one in this house eats before 7:30!
Saturday night Brandon and I went to this cool wine bar to celebrate our sister-in-laws birthday. They have wine dispensing fountains all over the place (kind of like sodas at McDonald's) You pick the wine & then how many ounces you want. You can get 1,3 or 5. You pay by the ounce. I liked that I could taste before I decided to purchase a whole glass. It wasn't Brandon's type of place as he does not drink wine, but he enjoyed seeing everyone.
