Henry, You Are Precious When You Sleep.

JH,

You couldn't be any cuter when you sleep with your teaso up! I had to take a picture. I could pinch it. Kiss kiss.

I love you little one, Mamma

Now that's One Cute Teaso!

John Henry - I Could Squeeze You!

January 2013 - About 6 months. I couldn't resist! That teaso! I want to bronze it. I can't help but squeeze it. I use to say that to Hudson all the time. You both have cutest teasos! Your baby body is just too precious.

I love you, Mamma

Oh John Henry!

Your so precious, so sweet, so perfect, so beautiful! Your little body is so freakin' adorable, I could just eat you up! I want to bronze your body and your cute little teaso! Your hands and feet are so little and perfect. It's so sweet to hold a baby again. Thank you Henry and thank you God for sending us our healthy baby boy.

Drums After Siesta - January 2011

Hudson,

You woke up from your siesta and you wanted to go downstairs and play your drums. It takes you awhile to get happy after your siesta, and sometimes, you are full on in a bad mood. I tell you, "It's ok if you need 10 minutes to be by yourself to wake up," and you say, "No! I don't want to be by myself." You did not want me to take these pictures, but you looked so cute in your big boy shirt. You don't like to put your pants on for awhile after siesta. You wonder all over in your pull up or your underwear. Honestly, you are so precious in your underwear or your pull up, you can run in them all day as far as I am concerned! You will only be this little once. Your teaso is the cutest thing ever and it should be bronzed and put in the Smithsonian!

Siesta is a good thing. I always tell you it is good to take a break in the day. It gives mommy a break and you a much needed nap. We sing this song, "Siesta, siesta, a nap in the afternoon. Take a break in the middle of the day, they say it's good for you. Es bueno that is true." You have always been a willing napper. You are are ready to get in your crib, your safe haven, and rest. You are a great sleeper Hudson. You're in bed by 7 or 7:30 and you sleep 12 hours a night. You have been doing that since you were about 3 months old.

There will be a day that you won't want to nap, but we will still take quiet time! We'll cross that bridge when we come to it. Remember, there is nothing wrong with a break in the day, whether you are a child or an adult. It Italy, a siesta is common for everyone. At about noon, everything shuts down there for about three hours for lunch and siesta. This is why Italians live la vita bella. I need to practice what I preach, because I have never been a good napper...

I love you amore, Mamma
