handsome Hudson, our new son!

Hello friends!  As promised, here's a wee photo-shoot of our newest addition at the nest.
Hudson is sporting this adorable toque knitted by our friend Jackleen (she told me it's actually called a 'Hudson' pattern - before she knew we named him that!). Love it.

He's also tucked into the sweet crochet booties that his Aunt Sarah-Anne made him.  (You locals can find your own pair she's made down at GLOW maternity). Like a gangly puppy, Hudson has big feet to grow into it seems...  :o)

 We're still trying to figure out who he's looking like here... his sister, my side, Ben's side.. but I just can't get over his cute lil' 'bum' chin!

Azriel is still proving to be a delighted.helpful.loving sister.. "dat's baby brother" she's saying!

Day 3 and we're surviving pretty well now.
I'm still recovering.. and hope to share his birth story this week... but I know you'll understand if I don't post like crazy for a bit. ;o)

Thanks for all the love friends,
we heart you.

*P.S - his adorable mushroom sleeper is from H&M - linking up this announcement today over at Mama Loves Papa!

  9. He is amazing. What a wonderful way to celebrate February, Congrats!
    The booties are cute, would this be the one and only Glow Maternity in Peterborough? I don't have crochet skills so these would be fantastic for baby due in May.
    Take care and enjoy your time with your beautiful family
