Wrapping presents

Today was a busy day.  We started off by visting my work so everyone could meet both Hudson and London.  Unfortunately, Hudson woke up with a runny nose and cough so I had given him some medicine and he was not really himself.  He was pouty and quiet.  BUT...this worked to his advantage and I don't think it took him long to realize that!  It was like trick-or-treating for him there!  Every cubicle pod he would visit would find something they could give him.  They even found him a bag to carry all of the loot he was collecting.  He walked away with a NY Yankee's matchbox car, a toy mail truck, a stuffed horse, a toy shark, a glittery rocket that lights up, lots of candy,  and lots of new friends!  I always tell him that work is no fun so he'll go to school instead of ask me if he can go to work with me.  I don't think I'll ever be able to convince him of that now!  The next day we were driving in the car and he told me he loves all of my friends!  After we came home from my work, Hudson crashed and took a long and much needed nap.  He woke up in a much better mood and we wrapped some presents together.  He quickly went into pretend land!  Before I knew it, he was a doctor and the name tags turned into band-aids.  He had a great time using London as his patient and covered her in "band-aids"!  The picture below was just the beginning...eventually, her legs and arms were covered!  She just laid there wiggling away completely oblivious that she was covered in stickers!

Here is Hudson switching gears and pretending he is Santa Claus checking his "Naughty List"!

My pretty girl:

Taking care of business (talking to Gigi) and eating his first candy cane!  A cute Hudson story:  I gave him a box of candy canes to put on the Christmas tree.  He was so excited and put them all on as fast as he could.  He stood back, looked at them, and told me he didn't put them all on the right way.  He went back and fixed them so they were all facing the same direction.  He stood back and looked again and then asked for my help to reach some higher spots so they could be more equally spaced.  He IS his father's son!!
