\"\" This blog might end up turning into just pictures of a puppy pretty soon. Hudson has been here for a week and mostly he is super annoying- biting constantly, going to the bathroom everywhere and sneaking into corners of our house that didn’t seem dangerous until he gets trapped. In between all of that, he is snuggly and adorable and I love him. But mostly I’m eager for him to get past this stage. <\/p>\n

This week was Valentine’s week at school, so the boys were busy decorating boxes and having several days of valentine parties. Augustus got a cold on Wednesday and so he stayed home with me to recover. <\/p>\n

\"\". \"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

On Tuesday, I brought Hudson to work with me and he did really well. He hung out, got to meet my co-workers and explore my office. After work, I needed to run 2 quick errands to the Dollar Tree and Michaels, so I decided to risk the possibility of getting kicked out of either store and I put him in a bag and carried him in with me. No one noticed him or said anything in the Dollar Tree. And in Michaels, no one seemed to notice until I got to the register and the check out woman said, “a puppy! How old?” and then told me that they don’t mind dogs as long as they are contained. I am going to need a bigger bag for when he gets to be 60 pounds. <\/p>\n

\"\". \"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

On Thursday, it was the official Valentine party for both boys and it was also PJ day for both of them. 
\"\". \"\"<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
I’ve been baking nonstop leading up to Valentine’s Day. 15 dozen cookies and 5 oversized “cake-style” macs later, I am DONE! I am exhausted. But I did get a lot of nice tags on social media and good feedback, so I think I’m doing a pretty good job. <\/p>\n

\"\". \"\"<\/p>\n

My family doesn’t typically eat any of my cookies, but we had a mac “cake” (just a large macaron) on Saturday night and both boys and Nate all said, “wow! This is really good!” I should probably be offended by how surprised they sounded, but I will let that slide and just be happy they enjoyed it. 
\"\"<\/p>\n

It is 15 degrees BELOW zero, so everyone is huddled inside. On Saturday, we ventured out for a little while and headed to Petco for a few new toys and treats. I think everyone was trying to get their dogs out and about in a warm way, because it was madness! Hudson got to meet lots of new dogs and he was very good! He walked on his leash, he was friendly. I’m not sure how to best socialize a puppy during a pandemic, but we’re trying. 
\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/div>\n

Nate and Augustus went out yesterday and stopped at my favorite candy store for my favorite candy. When they got home, they hid it well for about 5 minutes, but then Augustus got the bag out and let me know they had a surprise for me. So lucky me got early Valentine’s candy. Today is Valentine’s Day and we had some special treats for the boys when they woke up. <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/div>\n

Valentine breakfast for dinner. <\/div>\n
