Hudson Holding Finley

Hudson constantly wants to hold her. She looks so small with him. He hasn't figured out that he needs to support her head :)

Happy Birthday Grandma Sharon!!!!

Today is Grandma Sharons birthday. We are so blessed to have you in our lives. Thank you for the visit last week. We miss you already. Hudson goes into Finley's room every morning to see if Grandma is still here. Hopefully we will see you soon. Hope you have a great day. Love you and miss you tons!!!

The Neighbor Kids

We are very lucky to have lots of kids in the neighborhood. A couple of doors down are some friends who have a boy and a girl also. Theo is 6 months older then Hudson and Elise is 2 months older then Finley. It is so much fun to have kids the same age!! They were over the today and I had to take some photos. Finley looks so tiny next to them. Trying to get them all to look at the camera was impossible.

Hanging out

Hudson loves lying next to Finley on the bed. All he wants to do is talk to her and kiss her. He is very genle which we love. Hopefully that doesn't change!!!

Finley & Mommy

I can't believe that my little girl is a week and a half already. It has been a pretty easy transition so far with her and Hudson. He really seems to like his baby sister.

New Drill

Grandma Sharon and Grandpa Rob brought Hudson a new drill set when she came into town. He loves drilling the screws in and out. Mom and Dad especially love hearing the drill at 6 in the morning. Thanks Grandma and Grandpa for the noisy toy!!!

Cuddle Time

Hudson loves to lie next to his sister on the bed and play with her. He constantly wants to give her kisses and talk to her. He really is a great big brother.

"Fat" man

Grandpa Matt got Hudson a Batman towel last Christmas. He seems to call it Fatman for some reason. Now his new favorite thing is to have daddy put the towel on and Hudson chases him around the house. They have so much fun together.

Hudson

Ever since I have been home from the hospital, Hudson has been attached to me. He thinks that I am going to leave him again and he doesn't want that. He is still a total mommy's boy. He is now attached to his pacifiers again. Just when you think we are over one thing back it comes. He was trying to be funny with two in his mouth.

Visit from Grandma Sharon

Grandma Sharon came down a couple of days ago to see Finley. My mom wasn't able to be here when she was born because she had just flown to New York for a family wedding. Thanks Finley for coming early!!! We had a great time with her when she was here. Tonight we had dinner with Grandma Irene and Nana. We took some cute photos of all of them. Hudson asked Dave to put on the shark costume and he thought daddy was so funny.

Daddy and Finley

Finley's favorite position is asleep in someones arms. I caught her happy as can be with her daddy tonight!

Well that took long

We're barely a week in and Finley has already staked her claim to the love seat in our family room. Judging by the milk moustache she has, it looks like Hudson has already taught her a few tricks!

Hudson, meet Finley. Finley, meet Hudson.

One of the best things we've been able to witness during Finley's first days is how quickly Hudson has bonded with her. They are already the best of friends, and Hudson wants to make sure everything is perfect for his sister because as he says...she's so tiny!

Hello Finley Grace!

This morning at 9:20 AM we welcomed Finley Grace Poole into our family! She is 6 pounds, 0.8 ounces, and 19 inches long.

Finley and Kirsten are both doing great...thanks for all of your support! Next up, Finley gets to meet her big brother.
