A few of his favorite things....

I meant to post this shortly after his 2nd birthday but time passed away.  Every year around his birthday I want to post some of Hudson's favorite items at that time so we can look back and see what he loved each year.  Once he is able to talk more, I also want to try something I found on pinterest where I ask him the same questions on his birthday to see what his answers are.  So far now, a few of Hudson's favorite items....

1.  Lovey's (4 total) 


This picture was taken in November of 2011, this is still one of his favorite lovey's :)  They go with us everywhere and he usually sleeps with one or more at nap & bedtime.

2.  Blanket

His favorite blanket is the one we had on his way home from the hospital covering his carseat.  The whole underside is satin and he loves to rub that between his fingers :)

3.  Sock monkey's (3 small & 1 large)

My mom bought him his first sock monkey (the multi-colored one in pic) on their trip to Florida.  When they initially gave him to him, he was a little freaked out by it.  Now he loves them and usually needs to sleep with one or two at night.

4.  Dirt devil toy vacuum cleaner

My parents bought this for him on his first birthday, he absolutely loves it.  He totally takes after my dad, completely type A (& me I guess), and he loves to clean.  He even moves items out of the way so he clean that area.  Hopefully this continues as he gets older :)

5.  Loves to swing

He could sit in the swing forever!  Anytime we go to the park that is the first thing he wants to do.

6.  Tractors & Trucks

Anytime we are in the car & he sees either a tractor or a truck, he gets so excited & practically screams it at you :)  He also loves to play outside with his tractors & trucks in the dirt!  Such a boy.

6.  Lawn mower

Everyday he talks about mowing.  He gets to daycare and wants to mow, comes home and wants to mow.  Tells dada to mow.  Not sure what we will do when winter comes and there is no mowing....

7.  Swimming

He has no fear of the water!  Loves to splash around, kicking, blowing bubbles.  This week at swimming he even put his face in the water twice :)  He is definitely a little fish!

Some of his other favorites things......

DVD - Chuggington, Elmo, and Happy Feet
