Play Ball! Hudson Douglas Smith Has Arrived!

Finally, we have our blog up and going for everybody to view.  Hudson was born on Saturday, September 13th at 11:17am.  He weighed in at 7 pounds and 3 ounces with very large hands and feet for his size.  Brock likes his chances...(MLB, NBA, NFL, PGA) who knows?  Words cannot describe this incredible experience and the excitement surrounding finally getting to meet our son.  We may be a bit partial, but Hudson is arguably the most handsome little fellow we've ever seen.  Attached are some pictures for you to decide for yourself.  :)

Week 1 has been been a week of adjustments in becoming Mom & Dad.  It has gone very well and things are starting to become more habitual every single day.  Feeding has been the biggest challenge so far, but even that is starting to click.  Hudson has been out of the house 3 times so far:  once to the doctor, once to Culver's to grab a quick meal, and once to Outback that wasn't so quick.  Let's just say that Mom and Dad didn't really get to eat together because Hudson decided he was hungry at the same time.  The steak must have smelt good to him too...  

We feel extremely blessed to have Hudson home and doing well.  Liz is feeling great and Hudson's follow up doctor visit went well too.  Ginger has done well so far adapting to little bro and is very protective & curious.  The Smith family is now up to 4 and growing...  Stay tuned.  It is our intention to post pictures and an update every week or two showing what "Hud the Stud" has been up to.
