a new trick for the grandmas to see....others are welcome to watch

this is a video....enjoy for a few seconds!!
here's hudson's latest trick. he goes from lying on his back to his tummy and then sits up. he's crawling a little too. he is easy to entertain now b/c he likes to play on the floor with toys and scoot around.
sadie loves her ballet class at the little gym. actually they only do 15 minutes of ballet, 15 min. of tap and 30 minutes in the gym. she loves every minute of it but says that tap is her favorite part.last night we had some new friends over. one of them grew up in Birmingham and they went to school at Samford and Montevallo. that was a fun surprise to realize we know some of the same people b/c we went to school in the same state. anyways, i made this chocolate chip cheesecake which i've made a few times.

cooking for me is sometimes fun, but usually i get stressed and exhausted by it. there are a FEW things i make well, but frankly i'd rather eat at a good restaurant, or see a good movie than cook. BUT, since i try to stay near my southern roots i have to at least try sometimes. I think today people like me want things quick, however, cooking good food takes time and patience. My grandmothers probably had more time to cook since they didn't have the internet to suck their time away. So, i decided to take a picture of it b/c my friend Blake gave me the idea b/c she often takes pictures of food that she or her husband cooks or of food at restaurants if it's a special occasion like an anniversary. I like that idea b/c it helps me remember the night and who I was with and what was special about the evening.

and we get lots of laughs out of h. when he swings. i need to video that as well
