So as I sat down to recap our family week, I actually couldn&#8217;t think of much. Nate did school drop off and picked up every day. I spent a lot of time on the phone. It was a bit of a blur.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" id=\"id_cc56_b8ca_e376_6ede\" src=\"https:\/\/lh4.googleusercontent.com\/9fU0nyw2-pUjqNaI6_yy0RpCIFZJbfxMtXx1C7ZYeZGs_IfACeFMsUFDpwjEyrSXIqc\" style=\"height: auto; width: 257px;\" title=\"\" tooltip=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<div>Every photo I take of Hudson is of him snuggling or sleeping or being adorable, but don&#8217;t let that fool you- he&#8217;s the actual devil. He is constantly filled with energy (he seems to get an endorphin high from walks). He wants to bite everyone and everything. He is insane. He is, however, very good at going for walks, and quite jaunty and friendly to everyone he sees. He is getting the hang of potty training and I think he&#8217;s pretty smart. He is interested in the outdoors now that it&#8217;s not negative 15 degrees out. But 10\/10 I would not recommend a puppy to anyone. When Olivia was a puppy, I was far less tired, had far less responsibility and I had no idea how bad puppies were, so 12 years ago, my puppy experience was different. But yeah, he&#8217;s giving me a run for my money.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" id=\"id_5b15_f8b1_cac8_7843\" src=\"https:\/\/lh6.googleusercontent.com\/w0X3P6Hnr_Sgtl4rr3axKYDfQV5K6-0PMzo6s-TmZad7lp9Fo8qS7Op2trku12lkvWQ\" style=\"height: auto; width: 241px;\" title=\"\" tooltip=\"\" \/>.&nbsp;<img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" id=\"id_eafc_f183_8b77_58a6\" src=\"https:\/\/lh5.googleusercontent.com\/KFWzrxqBUIAATUdDF2WkTF3_LRQ5lPIA_8I6jqD8mGNYTyLDR_2YqCEsiwow1Cq_1LA\" style=\"height: auto; width: 245px;\" title=\"\" tooltip=\"\" \/><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>The boys were busy at school and with Grandma Debbie. Xander&#8217;s tooth is SUPER loose (but still in his mouth). Xander also decided this week that he was going to become a basketball player. He is able to semi-successfully dribble a kickball at least 7 times in a row before it hits his foot and rolls away, so I think there&#8217;s promise there. After I agreed to sign him up, he quickly had a list of things he needed, including a sweat band and wrist bands, basketball shorts and basketball tank tops (and an actual basketball). I asked him if he actually wanted to play basketball or if it was more about the accessories, but he&#8217;s sure he&#8217;s ready to be a baller. So in March, he will begin 4\/5 year old basketball class at the YMCA. Once we have all the gear, learning the skills is just a formality.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" id=\"id_f9cf_5177_c03c_f875\" src=\"https:\/\/lh5.googleusercontent.com\/DbcB6tNps8Gw3ILpmkEzw4iwNhrVKnRxYNViXa0RygLhtQGFnZpSEpUn61D90uZJmqU\" style=\"height: auto; width: 244px;\" title=\"\" tooltip=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p>On Friday we took Hudson to the vet for his next round of shots. The vet said he looks good and was very friendly, so that was nice to hear. He was exhausted after his big outing, although I am finding that you can bring a dog almost anywhere and if he&#8217;s in a bag, people smile and do not kick you out (Target and the bakery were both successful errands).&nbsp;<br \/><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" id=\"id_d595_c5ee_de94_69fb\" src=\"https:\/\/lh3.googleusercontent.com\/w8PUCKFF8_8vHHbq207ad6H8sEOmp9EDEhXMg-smCjHTLM87OcCwRHp_MUKxApqGNQM\" style=\"height: auto; width: 247px;\" title=\"\" tooltip=\"\" \/><\/div>\n<div>On Saturday, the Nelson family came over for a very fun morning of playing. When I mentioned it to Xander a few days before, I said I was going to make sandwiches for lunch. 99% of the time, Xander is a clone of Nate- mild mannered, easy going- they are so similar. But when he said to me, &#8220;we should have &#8216;make your own pizzas&#8217; I was reminded that he has some of me in him after all. Xander loves some quality programming and appreciates when the details are special. So make your own pizzas for 5 children became the new plan! And they did a great job! They spent the morning playing with Hudson and alternating between the playroom, basement and porch. All 5 whined when it was over, so that&#8217;s definitely a success. And Hudson slept the whole afternoon, so we&#8217;re going to have to have a repeat playdate soon!&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" id=\"id_9c99_f329_7380_61aa\" src=\"https:\/\/lh3.googleusercontent.com\/CHfXcGu61l0l742ee43zvqoX09pbt6vHGRyRvyNkSGlDVSQ-vNUadXrGHSHcDIO2y5w\" style=\"height: auto; width: 349px;\" title=\"\" tooltip=\"\" \/><br \/>Tomorrow is March 1 and I think Spring is nearly here&#8230;<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It was a very busy week at work- I had calls in the evening several nights this week and I felt like I was thinking about, talking about or plannings something for work every minute of every day, including when I was sleeping.
