It's a bird, It's a plane, no it's Hudson!

For those of you who know Hudson know that he is very adventurous to say the least! He loves insects, dogs, cats (thank you Kate and Gus), cows, fishing, and anything to do with trash trucks or buses! Yes, trash trucks. He hears them 3 days a week coming down the alley at 6:15 and wakes up saying “trash truck, trash truck is here!”


Hudson skating for the first time!

Back to adventurous, last week, yes, 5 days before Monday, Hudson had been complaining about his arm hurting because he Superman it off a slide! Tyler called the doctor the next day and they said unless it swelled or turned colors not to worry about it. So....we didn’t!!! Sunday morning I was getting him dressed and his arm missed the hole in the shirt and he just lost it. I knew then something was wrong. As the day went on it gradually got bigger. Tyler got back from man trip #2 that afternoon and Hudson seemed to be doing better. By that night it was way worse, we took him into the clinic the next morning. They thought maybe he had just fractured his arm so we had X-Rays.... low and behold a clean break right in the middle of the biggest bone in your forearm. I felt like mother of the year!! We now have a large LIME GREEN cast from wrist to right under the arm pit!! He seems to be doing pretty good with it. He has only asked to take it off a couple of times. Since Monday my family has done nothing but spoil him. For those of you who don’t know mi familia when something like this happens we don’t cry, we celebrate! So we went for burgers and ice cream Monday night, he has a new collection of cars and trucks, an old cell phone (no it doesn’t work!!) and lots of candy! His cast is quickly filling up with names and of course thanks to dad, it has a big red double T right in the middle!! We have to go back in 2 weeks to get another X-Ray to make sure that it is healing correctly and hopefully he will only have to wear it 4 of the 6 weeks that he is supposed to!
