A link to our house tour and a quote

Thought those of you who haven't ever been to our home might like to see it in the virtual tour they made for putting our house on the market. Here's the temporary link (still needs some editing). To see the various area of the house you just click on the tabs above the photos: http://www.tourfactory.com/337032

Smart Hudson Quote (and cute)

"Hey Landon, want to learn how to count in Spanish?"

"Ba!"

"O.K. Say uno.....good, now say dos....good..." And on it went with Landon trying to repeat after him through diez.

There's a "For Sale" sign in our front yard

At our neighbor's 4th birthday party. Hudson is front row far right, Landon is second row far right with the hat on.

Coloring Easter Eggs



Hi everyone. All is well in Scottsdale. Today they delivered and installed the "For Sale" sign in our front yard. It's really weird to see that. Kathryn spent a couple of afternoons with our realtor snooping in area homes for sale to help set the asking price. She had fun checking out the houses and decor and also being a bit of a voyeur.



The kids are doing well. Keaton really seems to be growing fast. He actually smiles on demand (Rick didn't believe it either). Hudson and Landon still mall him all day long with kisses. Hudson's pretty good at replacing his pacifier.



Funny Landon Quote:

"Daddy?"
"Yes, Landon."
(Makes motion with hand hitting his other hand)
"The birdie, Landon?"
"Ba" (His word for 'yes')
"Yes, the poor birdie" (see story from the last post)
Throwing his head back and closing his eyes: "Died!"

April is here

I mostly sleep and eat...

My brothers mostly ignore me...


My eyes are open sometimes.


My Mom likes to put me in these ridiculous outfits.

The "car show"


Hudson at our house construction site.




It's amazing that 2007 is already 25% done. What's more amazing is that we recently realized that Hudson has completed 25% of his life under our legal authority!

All is well in Scottsdale. Keaton is growing as he should and sleeping OK. Hudson is getting into the weather and wanting to swim a lot. Landon remains our showman and has been wanting to wear his sunglasses inside and out like a rock star.
We had an interesting experience this week. Hudson, Landon, and Rick were on the patio when a bird flew into the window, flopped onto the patio floor right at their feet, and died a not-too-pretty death. After properly disposing of the body, the boys ran in to Kathryn to tell her what happened. Before Hudson could tell the story, Landon got her attention and communicated enough to let her know that he was talking about a bird and proceeded to act out the event complete with sound effects, flopping onto the floor and closing his eyes! It was a hoot.

Hudson theology for the week:
When the subject of golf came up -

"You know that golfer, Tiger? He doesn't know God so he'd go to hell."
(We're pretty sure that came from Grandma...)

Hudson Sweet Quote of the Week:
"Keaton, of all the babies in the whole world, I'd choose you."
