Adoption

Our friends Jon and Leigh Chasteen are in the process of raising money to bring home their baby girl from China. This is an amazing family and I hope you will join us in praying for their family as they go through this process and also get some t-shirts from them to help with the huge cost of adoption! They are pretty cool if I say so myself, my man designed them :) Here is a link to Leigh's blog so you can read about their journey. The Chasteens

Me and my 5 guys! What a blessed woman I am!!

Lovin' the Sunshine

Chase will be born on Monday and we were so blessed with amazing weather yesterday and today. The Lord knew we needed to get out and enjoy some fun in the sun before baby comes. This weather here is so crazy and of course it will be back in the 50's tomorrow.

We woke up this morning and decided to take Fenway to Shelby Farms to the dog park then walk some trails and visit a park. We had a great time....Fenway was in heaven, the boys played their hearts out, Jon was exhausted from playing football and baseball, and I have swollen ankles from all the walking and standing. So that makes for a successful Saturday! We are so grateful the Lord gave us this time as a family. We now await a little more than 36 hours for our new little man to arrive. No pics of Mom today but here is one I took of all my guys! CANNOT WAIT till there are 6 of them. My heart is full of joy and I am beyond blessed. Thank you Lord for my boys!!

Coming to an End

I cannot believe that tomorrow is my last doctor's appointment before Chase is born. This pregnancy has truly flown by and been the best one ever. We have everything ready and the boys are praying every night for their new little brother. We all cannot wait to meet him and get to bring him home to join our family.

We are praying he comes in the Lords perfect timing but I'm praying sooner than later! I will let you know when our little man arrives. Here is a picture of my baby bump.

Chase Hudson, I love you so much already and can't wait to hold you in my arms!

Fun Night out with Dad

This past weekend our church had our annual Sportmans Feast. This year Cooper really wanted to go with Jon. He is very much into camo, hunting, and watching Duck Dynasty. Anytime he sees a bird flying he shoots them with his imaginary gun. He got a BB gun for Christmas and shoots it all the time. Jon is looking forward to the day they can go hunting together. 

At the dinner they had all sorts of wild animals and Coop tried them all. He ate kangaroo, buffalo, alligator, deer, and more that I can't remember. He had a great time and enjoyed a night out with Dad, just the 2 of them. 

Colton and Caden were excited to just lay on the couch and have movie night with Mom! 

An Incredible Day

We started a tradition when I was pregnant with Colton that we still do today. When we are about to have a baby we take the kids on a "lets have fun and celebrate it just being us before we add another brother" day. We took Cooper to Chuckie Cheese before we had Colton, then we took Cooper and Colton to see Toy Story 3 in theaters and spent the day together before Caden was born. Now it was time to find something to do before Chase comes. We decided to take them to Incredible Pizza. They love this place and we had a great time. Too bad everyone in Memphis had the same idea. It was very crowded but the boys didnt seem to mind and just played every game in the place I think. We made great memories and I am thankful for a fun day with my guys. I'm very ready to meet this new little one. Praying we get to hold him and see that precious face soon. Here are pics from our fun day. I am only in 1 since I was the photographer!

I love these 4 so much!! Ready for there to be 5 guys!

Baby Shower for Chase

My fellow staff wives of our church threw me and Chase a baby shower a couple weekends ago. We had a great time and I am very blessed by everyone who showed up or gave a gift. We are now set and ready for Chase to come! Here are a couple pics from the shower.

These boys of mine...

January 2013

I love these guys so much and lately I have just enjoyed watching them all play and enjoy each other. I am beyond blessed and I just can't imagine that within 6 weeks we will be adding our 4th little man to the mix. I wonder who he will look like or who he will act like...I can't wait to meet Baby Chase!! And these 3 guys are ready to meet their new little brother.

Shooting Guns

Cooper got a BB gun for Christmas and this afternoon we went out back and shot some. Colton and Caden even got a go at it. Its so neat to see all my boys out having fun shooting guns. Here are a couple pics I got while out there.

Cooper loves it!

Colton shooting for the 1st time
