grin and bear it

Hudson has been teething the past week - both front top teeth have been bursting through his gums which has made him particularly drool-y [did you know that 'drool-y' isn't a word? it should be!]. He's also been gritting his teeth which is funny because I think his mouth kind of looks like a platypus:

We went to the park on Saturday and met up with some girlfriends and his one of his favorite playmate - Bryden.  We got there first and Hudson spent a little time playing with leaves and climbing on his stroller...

And then Leslie & Bethany showed up! Hudson is a huge flirt and had a ball making eyes at them (unfortunately, no photographic evidence of this...). A surprising note is that Hudson has really caught up with Bryden size-wise - they are almost the same size, which seemed inconceivable a couple of months ago. Bryden was usure of what to think of me at first (or it could have been the camera!)...

 But he warmed up quickly...

 And got to eat a little dinner (he was nice enough to share a bit with Hudson!)

 Hudson took a drink by Leslie - such a pro at the sippy cup...

 Notice my baby getting into trouble in the background while Bryden is just chillin'

 He's such a happy baby!

 They exchanged toys...

 ...what  a love bug! Hopefully Hudson will take some cues from Bryden on how to snuggle!
