We Made It to Twin Falls!

Well I know it has been awhile but inbetween moving home from Philly and moving to Twin it has been kind of crazy. We don't have internet at our apartment yet but hopefully soon. It is so good to be back in Idaho and closer to our families. Channing left a day earlier than me from Philly and I flew out early the next morning. I had to fly to Alanta, Georgia and there I realized my wallet wasn't in my bag. I was freaking out and in the mean time trying to find my next flight that was suppose to board in twenty minutes and not being able to talk to anyone because my phone was broke. I could hear them talking to me but they couldn't hear me. (thank goodness for texting though) Chan was driving through the state of Wyoming and he got a hold of the bank and cancled my cards. So the whole flight to Salt Lake I couldn't stop thinking about anything else but my wallet. And the lady I was sitting by said you will never get it back because people aren't honest. When I finally flew in my father-in-law picked me up which I was glad to see him and very relieved. I got to my parents house and I wanted to check my facebook and I had something in the my inbox and it was from a flight attendant from Delta that found my wallet on the plane going to Montego Bay. She told me to call her and she would send it to me. The biggest weight was lifted off my shoulders and I was so amazed. I am the luckiest person ever! I couldn't thank her enough and the way she wanted me to repay her was that when someone needs help I am suppose to help them out the way she helped me. That made me believe there are honest people in the world today. I got my wallet in the mail last week and I am still stunned I got it back. Anyways, we are in Twin now and Chan was suppose to start school yesterday but I told him that it started today so he missed a whole first day of classes....oops;) Hopefully he will forgive me. We really like our apartment and hopefully we will get more aquainted with people but we are exicited to be here. I gave Hudson a haircut the other night and he looks so cute! I am glad I did it...and dad, he doesn't have a grandpa Eddie combover anymore. I am hoping to get pictures on soon! Chan got a job at Home Depot in the lumber department and he is pretty excited. He is going to be a busy man going to school and working but I am so grateful for him and his hard work ethic. I am going to stay at home with Hudson which I am very lucky to be able to do but between both of Chan's schedules we figured I won't be able to work. But we can't complain, we are just livin the americam dream...... Broke, but happy!!!

Hudson is 6 months!









So I can't believe Hudson is six months and I guess it is a bittersweet moment for me. He is so much fun right now seeing him grow and learn new things. But I do miss him being so little. He is still my happy little boy but when he doesn't like something or if he wants something else he will for sure let me know. We were able to get hime weighed finally and he weighs 16 1/2 lbs and he is 26inches long. I thought he felt a lot heavier than 16lbs but I was wrong. I started him on some cereal finally and he likes it some days but other days he despises it. He hasn't had lots of bottles so instead I have been giving him a sippie cup and he likes that quite a bit. He is also starting to sit up on his own also, but still is a little tipsy. I bet by the end of the month he will have it down. Hudson is such a tease and I love seeing his little personality coming through each day. His favorite things are still waterbottles, the remote, cell phones, anything with a tag on it, his feet, hands, reading stories, and he plays pretty good with his toys. He is growing so fast and I am so grateful I am able to spend every day at home with him. Thanks Chan for working so hard for us and letting me be able to do that. I am excited to see Hudson grow and learn so many more things but it is sad how fast it goes.





So Laurie and Laken came to see us last week and it was so much fun! We did lots of shopping at the outlets and the mall. We also tried out the yummy ice cream places. And we went to Intercourse and Gettysburg one day. In Intercourse we ate at a yummy buffet called the Shady Maple and went and looked at all the Amish shops. Then we went to Gettysburg from there which seemed like a forever drive but it is so worth it in the end to learn about all the history. They also got to experience the Liberty Bell and the famous Philly Cheesesteak. We had so much fun while they were out here and Hudson was spoiled again. He has so many clothes from both of his grandmas that he doesn't know what to do with all of them. We are grateful that both of our families that they were able to make it out to Philly to see us this summer. Chan and I know that it was really Hudson you came out to see but that is okay we were so excited to show you how big he is. We love both of our families so much and appreciate all the support. We are excited to be home in a couple of weeks to spend time with all of you!
