Out of the Mouth of Hudson

As I start singing him a lullaby: That's not a song mommy! That's a joke.
(he does this to me pretty much every night. It's nice to know my singing voice is "a joke"- it's a big confidence boost for me.)

After several rough weeks in nursery, he greeted me one Sunday with a huge smile. I asked him how nursery was and he said, "Good! No tears!"
 His new phrase he says all the time is "Why Because?"

We were watching the Minions movie and they show this underground evil fortress. In all seriousness Hudson turns to me and says, "My dad and me went there. Uh-huh. We did." (While nodding his head to really drive home the point)


While I was rocking him before bed one Friday night "Mom, I don't like you to help me on Wednesdays."
and in the same rock session "Nora is my cousin mom. You know Nora mom? And she lives with Katie. Katie is my aunt, right mom? And Unky Will lives at Nora's house."

He's so funny about how he uses pronouns- it's all "he" and "she", never "him/her". He always gets the right gender assigned though. So all day long I hear statements from him that sound like this:
"She forgot she's ball."
"Chase likes he's milk."
(About Nora) "I will not poke she with the crocodile. I say sorry to she. I give, and Chase gives she hugs and kisses." -if you can guess, this statement was based on an actual incident where he hurt Nora's feelings by repeatedly poking her with his little crocodile. And then we talked about it for a few days afterwards.

 He's way into BYU this fall. He's been calling them the "congas" and now finally the Cougars. He keeps sneaking downstairs while we are watching the football games (they've been late the last few weeks) and snuggling right up on Ben and intently watching for long periods of time. He's been calling BYU "By-You". As I'm writing this he's on Ben's lap (wearing his BYU jammies) repeatedly yelling "go cougars!" over and over again.

While scrolling through our family pictures he was identifying each picture (That's me! That's my brother Chase-eh!) and when the picture turned to black and white he seriously said "And now we are all dead." Sure enough, we were "dead" in each black and white picture.



While we were waiting for our bagels at Einsteins the other day he turned to me and said "You know Mom, waiting is really hard to do." Yes it is buddy.

The boys spilled some water. So they went to get towels to clean it up, and decided to play store in the process. Chase held two towels out to Hudson and said:
Chase: Which one do you want to buy?
Hudson: That one!
Chase: Okay, that'll be $42.
Hudson: $42!?!?! Here, $42 cash!
Chase: No, that's $41. You can't buy this.

  1. Oh my gosh, the 'dead' thing with the black and white pictures is my favorite and also slightly terrifies me... ;)
