Hi everyone. We're doing well. The biggest item here lately, for those that of you that don't know, has been Hudson's teeth. We found out a couple of months ago that he had some teeth come in without the enamel formed adequately. Because of that, they had worn down. He needed a root canal and two caps. As you might expect in a four-year-old, it had to be done with him sedated. He did really well and everything went fine. Kathryn things he would be a mean drunk though by the way he talked when he got home ("I don't like that hat on you; it looks bad.").
The funny thing around here has been that Hudson and Landon LOVE croakins (I'm not sure I know how to spell that). For those that aren't a part of the Gray family of origin, croakins are a tradition in our family. They are really a Swedish dish that are really called something like Cruk-Crockers. They are potato dumpling around a core of salt pork that is boiled and later can be sliced and fried. They are something of a legend in the Gray family because new members (who marry or are born in) get introduced and seem to either love them or hate them (and more seem to hate them). One prospective son-in-law even threw them up.
Well, our boys are not big eaters regardless and they neither like pork nor potatoes very much. So the last thing we expected was for them to love coakins but they do. Hudson has "forced" Grandma to make two more batches of them after the original because he likes and keeps asking for them. Below is a picture of Hudson with his plate full of croakins.

"Nothing that you'd be into."
His response to Rick asking him after church, "What did you learn in your Sunday School class today?"

Love the "quote"..... I would have much preferred to have my teeth worked on than Hudson. Everyone pray the rest of his teeth come in fine. We love making croakins for the boys.
Yumm! Croakins - everybody loves them in this family! Adorable pictures and great quote! So sorry to hear about Hudson's dentist visit - that's no fun - especially for little guys. Thanks for the update!
Hey Arizona Grays-
How fun to "catch up" with you through the blog! Yeah boys, we love those croakins too!! Glad to hear Hudson is doing fine with his teeth, that seems to be a "Gray thing" too. We're all excited and anticipating the arrival of the newest member of the Gray family,we are praying for all of you. We love and miss you!
