Weight watchers-I'm back

2011-11-16T22:00:00.001-05:00

Points, points...I'm back at that game but I'm loving it! I lost 2.6 LBS last week. I joined the gym. I've worked out everyday since I joined. Tomorrow will be a week...watch out world.
So I'm in love with my family. Robbie is great. Kicking butt in grad school. Hudgins gets sweeter everyday. He is my angel.
Work, well, work is challenging but very rewarding. I will retire at Verizon Wireless.
God bless you all!
Oh and the picture=1 point.

starting back

2010-03-12T14:31:00.002-05:00

I'm thinking about getting some pics on here soon.

Hudgins is going to be 2 soon and I've slacked on keeping you updated on his life. He's doing great...growing, eating (a lot!), talking, running! He loves dum-dums (guckers) and snacks (nacks). He's real into doggies (goggies) and dinosaurs (dindodoors).
He does have tantrums here and there which is always fun but makes up for it when he says, "I looooove uuu." And guess what, I love him, too.

Robbie has OFFICIALLY applied for grad school at UNC. We'll keep you posted on that. And he made the cut at Dorothea Dix for a job. : )

I'm still "nannying" for the same family (2 girls) and I love it. They crack me up!

So life is good. We stay involved in our church and Robbie is playing in 2 bands. They've even had 2 gigs at the Pourhouse. I've organized a charity dinner at my church and I think it's going to be a huge success.

WE love all of you and I'll post pictures soon. But for now just picture something really cute and multiply that by 1,000, no, by infinity and there's Hudgins.

new pics...

2009-07-01T19:31:00.003-04:00

Sorry it's been so long...we've been incredibly busy!!!

Enjoy!

2 1/2 times?

2009-04-13T09:13:00.007-04:00

Wow! What a weekend! It started on Friday with Hudgins' 1st Birthday. Robbie and I spent all day preparing for the big party on Saturday. Su-Su came to help out!!

(The cake was made with love from Su-Su and she plans on making many more. Right, mom?) We had a small birthday party with just Robbie, Hudgins and I Friday night so that was cupcake #1. He got a Fisher-Price garage from us that evening.

Saturday was the party! We had G-pops and Grandmommy there to help prepare early. We had around 50 people come and celebrate with us. Fortunately the rain held off. It was a great time, Hudgins had cupcake #2 and I think he enjoyed himself. I say "think" because after everyone left I took his temperature and it was close to 104. Poor little guy!! He got so many cool presents and he wasn't even in the mood to play with them.

Sunday was Easter. He seemed to feel better just a low-grade fever so we went to church and then to G-pops and Grandmommy's for lunch. There his fever spiked back up to about 102 so we headed home for some R&R. After a short nap and another dose of Motrin, Hudgins woke up ready to check out his new toys. He rode in his wagon and crawled through his tents and tunnel. He then had a spaghetti dinner (always fun) and cupcake number 2 1/2. I couldn't do a whole one. : ) He totally enjoyed himself and was all smiles. They say 3rd times a charm. I think it's actually 2 1/2 times is the real charmer.

Happy Easter everyone! We love you all!!!

p.s. Bathtime after cake is the best time!

1st Haircut

Just look at Hudgins...don't look at me. I look awful! : ) But he was so good. He didn't cry at all!

Almost 1

Thanks and I hope you all have a "lucky" day. Pictures to come...

2009-02-23T09:19:00.003-05:00

Well, to catch you up on our lives. I'm still nannying and being a personal assistant, Robbie's still working at Dix but is planning for school and Hudgins is still working hard at being cute.

I've started back on Weight Watchers...gotta get ready for summer. I'm also doing it to be in better shape to keep up with my little munchkin. He is totally mobile and as you can see from the pictures when he sets his sights on something, he kicks it into high gear to get to it. The things he most loves doing are opening and closing doors, cabinets, drawers, etc. He also loves pulling books off shelves and dumping out boxes of things in his room. I'll have to post a before and after shot of his room. : )

To sum it up, Robbie and I are loving every minute of our lives with Hudgins and each other. We can't believe he will be 1 in less than 2 months!!! Wow! is all I have to say.

We hope all of you are doing well!

Busy, busy!

2009-01-06T13:04:00.004-05:00

With the holidays and moving, I have been a little slack on the blog. Here's some pictures to catch all of you up with my little man.

We had a wonderful Christmas with friends and family. We are also totally enjoying our new house. It is wonderful!!!

We hope 2009 treats everyone well!!!

Happy Late Turkey Day!!!

There is a bit of resemblance in Hudge and his papa, huh??

Questions for my Child

2008-10-25T22:49:00.000-04:00

Poem for Hudgins

You listened to my heart.
Did it tell you it beats for you?
You grew inside me.
Did you feel my hugs?
You cry for me at night.
Do you know that I miss you too?
You have the face of angel.
Did God let you pick me?
You smile at me.
This melts my heart.

I love you…

My angel...

2008-10-25T22:30:00.003-04:00

Babies are truly heaven-sent. I looked in on Hudgins tonight and Ms. Emotional started to cry. I just feel so blessed to have him in my life. He snorts when he laughs, he "poots" when he's mad and when he smiles at me, my heart melts.

Last night, he spent the night with Sue-sue and Papa. He had a wonderful time and was quite interested in his Papa. Today he had a visit with David Carver and his lovely lady, Megan. He also got to visit with his Great-granny and his Great-granddaddy. How awesome that he gets to visit his great-grandparents. Not many people can say that.

Anyways, I love Hudgins and thank Robbie for him all the time and I thank God for Robbie. I love my family!

A baby will make love stronger, days longer, nights shorter, bankroll smaller,
home happier, clothes shabbier, the past forgotten, and the future worth living for.

Our Weekend

2008-10-13T09:22:00.007-04:00

So our weekend was jam-packed but lots of fun. It also could have been filled with stress but Jenny, Tom, Mary Stuart and Molly are ABSOLUTELY wonderful!! We had such a good time with them. Robbie said to me last night, "I miss those little girls." I think he might have a new girlfriend and her name is Molly. And Hudgins, for sure, has a new babysitter, Mary Stuart. Jenny is a wonderful mom and I got a lot of advice from her this weekend. Trust me when I say, I will be asking for a lot more. And Tom is a trip and a wonderful father. It's so entertaining to see their family in action. You will see that I have posted some pictures of Charlie and Hudgins. Amanda and I didn't know that we had actually had twin boys. 60 Minutes has already contacted us to do a special on how exactly all this happened??? Twin boys, 2 different sets of parents, God only knows. : ) No, really...Charlie and Hudgins were a trip together. Just chatting back and forth. It's the first time I've seen Hudge interact with another baby the way he did. I've posted some videos to give our family a little taste of what Christmas will be like this year...fun!!!

Well, the whole reason we invaded the Stauffer home this weekend was for my friend, Ashley's wedding. She was absolutely beautiful!!! We had a wonderful time. I survived my reading and Robbie actually danced with me once! Yay!!! A few pictures of that for you.

New Cousins...

2008-10-07T08:42:00.006-04:00

Maggie was napping for this photo shoot but I can't wait to get all three together. It's so much fun being an aunt!!!

Look how cute! Hudgins was real interested in Charlotte's face. She was super sweet beside him in her little sleeper. And by the way, Hudge looks huge, right? And it's funny the way the flash always startles him. Loving the wide eyes...

Also the Junior Brocks had the Senior Brocks over for dinner and debate this past week. Some cute pics from that night...

Here's some pics of Hudgins trying some green beans. He loves his baby food and is getting so good with the spoon. Also one of him and his good buddy, Sophie and one of my budget friendly centerpieces for fall. : )

3.2 lbs lighter

2008-10-03T17:46:00.001-04:00

Today I weighed in and lost the most to date this week. I worked really hard and was glad to see it paid off! Soup and exercise... So far, I've lost 7.4 lbs in 3 weeks. Pretty awesome, huh? I am quite proud of myself, can you tell?

Here's the future beauty queen!!!

2008-09-30T14:03:00.003-04:00

Here is Ms. Charlotte Maxwell Brown!

Holding Baby Charlotte...

2008-09-29T13:20:00.003-04:00

Wow, Charlotte is beautiful! Sorry no pictures yet. Her uncle "Bobu" was in such a hurry to leave and see her, I forgot the camera. I'll post some as soon as I can. She looks nothing like her sister and just like her daddy. Thick, thick, thick black hair and an olive complexion. I would call her stunning. I love her so much already and am anxious to see her again. Maggie was super cute with her. Just so proud but I think maybe she was most proud of her mom. Katie looks fabulous and is already kicking butt at keeping up with both of her girls. She is such a good mom and a great example for me. Jason was literally glowing, such a proud dad and husband. I'm glad him and Katie found each other. They are a great team and Jason gives her so much support.

Holding Charlotte was eye-opening. People say babies grow up so fast. They DO!!! Hudgins probably weighs close to 25 lbs. (just a guess!) Everyone is shocked to hear that he is only 5 mos. As I held her, I thought back to 5 months ago. I miss that little guy so delicate and small. But now I get to hear laughter and see beautiful smiles. He's started exploring my face, grabbing my nose and eyes. He's so much fun. I love being his mom. It is such a joy!

I added a picture of Hudgins with his papa, who he loves to "slime," aka spitup on. Look how small!

And now look how big!

P.S. I lost 1.8 lbs last week! Hopefully the weight loss will keep up. If anyone is interested in the program, let me know. It's easy and I have some great recipes!

She's here!!!

2008-09-27T20:48:00.002-04:00

Charlotte Maxwell was born @ 4:30 today and weighed 9 lbs, 8 oz and measured 22 inches long! Katie did fabulous but is exhausted, of course. I hear she has a head full of black hair. I can't wait to meet her tomorrow and post some pictures for you guys!!! Yay!!!

Baby Charlotte?

2008-09-27T08:15:00.003-04:00

Katie went in to be induced this morning at 7:30. Dr. Smith is there. He's the same doctor that delivered Hudgins and he is WONDERFUL!!! Katie and I know him the best of all the doctors at the OB's. I will keep all of you posted. Keep her, Jason and of course, Charlotte in your prayers. I will be with big sis, Maggie, today!

I love, love, love banana oatmeal!!!

2008-09-25T10:25:00.005-04:00

For you, Jessica : )

2008-09-22T11:36:00.003-04:00

My friend, Jessica, said she loved the butt up in the air pose. So just for her, two more of that precious sleep position.

I'm real cute!

2008-09-22T09:33:00.006-04:00

good times...

2008-09-18T20:08:00.010-04:00

(This was from yesterday. It's taken Mommy a long time to get the videos to post!)

We have been super busy the past 3 days. Wednesday, Mommy had to stay with Nick and Luke all day because they were home sick from school and Daddy had to work and then had to go directly to band practice. Yesterday, Mommy and I went to Aunt Katie's house to help out with cousin Maggie. (

Everyone keep Katie in your prayers! She is exhausted!!! And I'm sure Uncle Jason is, too.) Maggie is so much fun and kept bringing me toys. She had Mommy laughing all day.

And today Tyler was sick, he hung with us until Mommy went to her Weight Watchers meeting. Then his mommy came and picked him up. Then we went and Mommy got her hair done. I got like 2 strands cut from mine. Had a few stragglers. : )

Mommy loves to make me laugh. Here's a video she took while tickling me. Mommies were made to multi-task.

With this new Weight Watchers thing, Mommy and I have been going on lots of walks. I got to wear my jogging suit for the first time on Tuesday since it's been chilly outside lately. And guess what, good thing I did. It started raining and Mother Nature made Mommy run a mile and a half. She weighs in tomorrow. I sure hope she's lost some weight. She's been working really hard! (Mommy lost 2.4 lbs!)

P.S. I am super cool. Check out my camo shorts!

New Me Inside and Out!

2008-09-15T10:54:00.004-04:00

So I've started Weight Watchers as of Friday, September 12. I'll keep you guys posted with my progress. I'm excited!!!

And ps Hudge is still cute...

More proof due to our photo session today! Enjoy!

2008-09-10T14:23:00.012-04:00

Well, life is grand! I feel like myself for the 1st time in over a year lately. I have energy. I'm extremely happy! Wow!!! I am blessed with a beautiful son, a wonderful and not to mention, HOT husband, loving pets and an awesome family! I also have a fabulous job!

Here's some more proof of my cute and BEAUTIFUL son! And some of these pictures look just like his Daddy!

long time, no post

2008-09-08T09:23:00.005-04:00

Happy Birthday, Uncle Hawk!!!

We're back...

2008-08-11T13:08:00.007-04:00

Sorry we've been gone for so long. Mommy and I have been real busy with this new nanny gig. The boys are tracked out of school and we have had lots of excitement. Urgent care, overflowing toilets, me teething! Mommy is surviving and is cool as a cucumber most of the time. I still make her smile and laugh. Daddy's doing great! Dorothea Dix is still open for now and we hope it will stay that way since this is great experience for his grad school applications.

Here are some recent pictures of me.

I love to keep up with world events in the news! Can you believe John Edwards?

Alyssa and Joe (mommy and daddy's good friends) are officially in love with me! Future wonderful parents!!!

Go USA! I am debating on what sports I will participate in the 2024 Olympics!

I'm real silly!

Just call me Mr. Cute!

2008-07-18T14:09:00.004-04:00

It's been a while!

2008-07-12T17:08:00.018-04:00

We've been to the lake...and with a early-riser like me, you see a lot of sunrises.

We've been to the mountains and had such fun with our family especially Maggie!

We're tired from all this travelling.

And we started nannying this past week and are having a great time. The boys are really interested in me and are amazed by my little feet and hands and soft head.

Talk to you later! We love you!

Awesome!!!

2008-06-26T20:38:00.001-04:00

***I discovered this picture today! It is one of my favorites!

Happy Late Father's Day!

2008-06-18T19:25:00.000-04:00

To Robbie: I love watching you with our son! I do feel "complete" when I see you two together. Happy Father's Day! We love you!

To my Daddy: I love you so much! You are my super-hero! Thanks for all the things you do and I look forward to watching you with Hudgins!

bottles, bottles, bottles

2008-06-03T14:20:00.000-04:00

so aunt katie called mommy about the bpa in my bottles. we headed out to babies r us where we exchanged all of our complete dr brown's bottles...turns out you only have to bring in the actual plastic bottle part and you get credit. it also turned out that all the kinds of bottles we have at my house are bad. so we only got 5 because they were sold out of everything. we got nubys and i can hold them myself. but mommy had to write on them because it's hard to see the numbers!

2008-06-02T18:31:00.000-04:00

So....great news! I'm going to be a nanny and I can bring my little guy along! I will be watching 3 wonderful boys, 5, 7 and 9. It will be a great situation and I am super excited! I start July 7th and I am definitely not going to have a problem working off my baby weight. No more being lazy!

Me and Daddy at the Lake

2008-06-02T14:22:00.000-04:00

2008-05-19T19:20:00.000-04:00

Hudgins went to the doctor today. He has a bit of a cold but he will be fine. He weighs... 11lbs, 6 oz now! I can't believe it. He is practicing his smiling and laughing. When he does this, he truly melts my heart. I can't wait to get a picture of him smiling. And he got his first pair of Osh'kosh overalls today from his mommy!

Our family went to the lake this weekend with Aunt Valerie and Uncle Eddie and friends. We had a great time. Great weather and good food! Hudgins sat on the dock in his new tent from Rachel. So cute! Gracie and Sophie are totally worn out from all the swimming!

Our family hopes all is doing well and come see us!

GI Test Results

2008-05-12T18:14:00.000-04:00

I went to the GI doctor today and I have reflux esophagitis (sp). Go figure! I'm going to start taking a new medicine and all should be well. My wonderful mother-in-law took great care of myself and Hudgins today. She will be also be watching him for a lil bit tomorrow when I have my 1st of many interviews. I don't want to go back to work but need to. It will be hard to leave my lil guy with someone else but I'm bound and determined to find a good sitter!

to my momma!

2008-05-11T00:51:00.000-04:00

I just want to say how wonderful you have been to me lately. What a joy it is to have my mom there to help me in my first days of mommy'ness. I hope I can be 1/2 the mom to Hudgins that you have been to me. Thanks for all your love and support and for always answering the phone... I love you! Happy Mother's Day!

Happy Early Mother's Day!

2008-05-08T11:42:00.000-04:00

Before I was a Mom,

I never tripped over toys or forgot words to a lullaby.

I didn't worry whether or not my plants were poisonous.

I never thought about immunizations.

Before I was a Mom,

I had never been puked on.

Pooped on.

Chewed on.

Peed on.

I had complete control of my mind and my thoughts.

I slept all night.

Before I was a Mom,

I never held down a screaming child so doctors could do tests.

Or give shots.I never looked into teary eyes and cried.

I never got gloriously happy over a simple grin.

I never sat up late hours at night watching a baby sleep.

Before I was a Mom,

I never held a sleeping baby just because I didn't want to put him down.
I never felt my heart break into a million pieces when I couldn't stop the hurt.

I never knew that something so small could affect my life so much.

I never knew that I could love someone so much.

I never knew I would love being a Mom.

Before I was a Mom,

I didn't know the feeling of having my heart outside my body.

I didn't know how special it could feel to feed a hungry baby.

I didn't know that bond between a mother and her child.

I didn't know that something so small could make me feel so important and happy.

Before I was a Mom,

I had never gotten up in the middle of the night every 10 minutes tomake sure all was okay.

I had never known the warmth, the joy, the love, the heartache, the wonderment or the satisfaction of being a Mom.

I didn't know I was capable of feeling so much,

before I was a Mom.

1st Portrait

2008-05-06T19:46:00.000-04:00

We went to Portrait Innovations today and got the $10 special. But we just had to get one more pose so they got us! Here's a picture of our favorite! So cute!!!

Sick again...

2008-05-02T10:07:00.000-04:00

Please keep me in your prayers. I have started throwing up again. I'm going to the GI doctor on Monday. Hopefully they will figure out what is wrong with me. I just want to be 100% again. I want energy!!! Thanks in advance for your prayers for my family.

Naptime...all the time!

2008-04-30T16:26:00.000-04:00

So lately all I've wanted to do is eat, sleep, poop, pee (especially when my diaper is off and no one is expecting it) and be held! I get real upset if my mommy doesn't hold me during the day. The way she gets around this is by putting me in the bed with her and cuddling me real close. This is her favorite! It is so relaxing for the both of us but has made Mommy super lazy. I need to get her out more. Tomorrow we are going to go see Aunt Katie, Uncle Jason, Maggie, Great-Granny and Grandaddy. That will be fun. We also get to find out what my new cousin will be. I can't wait!!! Well, talk to you all soon.

Love,

hudgins

p.s. I added a picture of Mommy, Daddy and me (our first time as a family)!

Love!

2008-04-29T22:18:00.000-04:00

Ok, so I am so in love with my son. I swear every time I look at him, he has managed to get even cuter. He is experimenting with smiling these days. I love it. I love taking naps with him. I just love every minute we spend together. Did I mention I'm in love?

I'm new here!

2008-04-26T09:28:00.000-04:00

So here I am...I finally made it into the world. Just to update everyone. My mommy went through a lot for me. Her water broke at 6:30 am, April 10, 2008. Daddy didn't believe she was in labor. He took his sweet time in the shower. They finally made it to the hospital around 7:30 with Mommy already having contractions about a minute and a half apart. The doctors checked her and she was 4 cm dialated. She got her epidural around 10am and she was thrilled to finally get it!!! She labored until 6pm when she was finally 10cm and I was in station 2. She was ready to push and push and push. Finally the dr came in around 8:30 with a vacuum to try to help mommy get me out. No luck, her pelvic bones were too narrow to push me out. We went into an emergency c-section and I was out by 9:14pm. I weighed 7lbs, 13 oz and was 21 1/2 inches long. Daddy cut my cord and mommy was taken to recovery. She finally got to hold me around 12:30am and she was in LOVE!!!! I had lots of visitors. I will post all of those pictures in a slideshow later. Gotta get the pictures from Sue-sue and Grandmommy and Aunt Katie!

Mommy, daddy and I came home from the hospital, Monday, April 14. Mommy continued to be sick, throwing up and all and had to be put on IV's twice the first week home. The beginning of the next week, she had 101.4 degree temperature. Wow, I put her through the ringer, huh? But she still loves me.

Mommy and daddy are getting adjusted to having me around. I'm kinda loud and stinky at times but I make up for it by being real cutsie!!!

I look forward to meeting all of you and I promise to keep you updated on all the secrets of our family on this blog. : )

Love,

So, my wonderful sister gave me the idea of having a blog to keep everyone posted on the arrival of baby Hudgins! So far, he has definitely made me aware that being a mom is going to be hard work. I have been sick the whole time but just recently the sickness really came on strong. Monday, March 3rd, my fabulous mother-in-law took me to the doctor. Turns out, I was severely dehydrated and earned myself to bags of iv's. They wanted me to have another but the beds just weren't that comfortable. I came home to my mother and husband and everyone was such a help. Somehow my house got cleaned and the Gatorade was flowing! But I got sick again that night and headed back to the doctor on Tuesday, thanks to my mom this time. NO more dehydration, thank God! but a UTI due to the dehydration was now the cause of my sickness. I also told the doctor about some pains I had been having in the middle of my chest. He checks me out and says that my cervix was thinning and that lil Hudgins had dropped. I have to take it real easy for the next 3 weeks. They want Hudgins to make it to 36 weeks before he enters the world. So I'm doing what I can to keep him in there. Please keep our family in your prayers. This has been a trying time. But thanks to the medicine...I'm just kind of floating through it. Much love to all of you and I will post more as my energy increases!
