I think I’ve mentioned before that Hudson has major OCD tendencies. It’s really strange & scary so I don’t talk about it a lot. He just seems to freak out about the strangest shit & I am actually quite worried he may be crazy- but for now I will chalk it up to him growing & learning what he likes & dislikes. Anyhow, this video was taken of him in the balloon room at this place in the mall on Saturday. He loved it. But, at the end he freaked out because the people give the parents & kid a matching bracelet so when you leave they can compare to make sure you aren’t stealing kids. Anyways, Hudson refused to play until I took the bracelet off of him. Like crying FIT because he didn’t like it on his wrist. So I tied it on his pants. At the end of this video he realized it was on him still & he freaked out AGAIN. Why is he so weird?!

I don’t know if they’ve been in the World Series in the last 20 years. The last time I remember them going this far was 1989. And during game 1 of ‘The Battle of the Bay’ (SF Giants vs. Oakland A’s) the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake hit.

So, apparently, the Giants can literally cause earthquakes? Maybe?

Anyhow- the only reason I am even mentioning any of this is because I found this picture of Scott & I at a Giant’s game on Father’s Day 2008. I was a few weeks pregnant with Hudson. It was my very first major league sporting event EVER. And you can see the baseball diamond in my Louis Vuitton Bindis.

So, umm- Go Giants?

We went for my cousin Laura’s 28th birthday. It was so much fun to spend her birthday with her & not only did she get a special shout out on the jumbotron in print- they showed all 25 of us on the jumbotron as well!! What a great birthday!!! I even smuggled in some Sprinkles cupcakes for her.

It was fan appreciation night, since it was the last game of the season. And if you follow hockey, like in our family, you’d know the Sharks are either gonna place #1 or #2 for the season going into the play-offs depending on Chicago’s game tonight.

We had an amazing time with our family & friends and I have a million & one pics to share! But seriously, $8.25 for a beer or cocktail? Yeah, good thing only I was drinking because 5 drinks later we spent wayyyy more than we should have.

Me & hubs!! Love these pics. Gosh, looking at these pictures makes me SO EXCITED to have another night out soon!!

Here’s a super cute pic (yay! I took it!) of our friends Stephanie & Favio.

This is (lt to rt) My husband, the birthday girl Laura, and my sister-in-laws Krust & Sarah.

Ummm, would you guys look at my hair?! When did this happen? Why is it so effing LONG!?! And how cute is my husband looking at me while I talk to everyone. Just love him.

Foam Finger parrrrrtayyyyyy. Mario & I.

Ok- so moral of the story is this:

1. Happy Happy Happy Birthday to my beautiful cousin Laura. We had so much fun. Thank you for inviting us! We love you! <3

2. I think I had the most adult fun I’ve had in A LONGGGGGG TIMMMMEEE.

3. You guys will probably be subjected to even more pics of our child-free date night when I see other peoples pictures. So far, I have only seen my own & Steph’s.

We do. Only because I can get my phone, fax, internet & cable on one bill.

It’s not cheap but it’s more convenient then paying a bunch of different companies.

Anyhow, yesterday it recorded part of the Super Bowl for us because we got home a bit late and wanted to rewind & watch. Too bad it recorded the first 45 minutes with no sound and was going in & out of total and complete pixelation. LAME SAUCE.

I called them to complain and they said: Well, your bill was due 2 days ago so maybe that’s why. I was like “uhhh, except every channel except the Super Bowl works. Are you trying to punish me for being late by ruining the Super Bowl?” The less then courteous lady on the phone then “sent a signal” and the problem was fixed. Assholes. We missed 45 minutes of Super Bowl & commercials.

I hung up and sent payment online.

Tonight? Yeah we went out into the living room to watch 24, approximately 10 minutes after it started. We like to fast forward the commercials. SAME SHIT!! Totally pixelated and NO EFFING SOUND.

So, I need to cancel Comcast. I hate them & my husband is really sad because first it was football- but now they have messed with Jack Bauer.

Firmer butt & thighs!? I want!!!

The wedding was like amazingly beautiful, since it was on Treasure Island at night. You get this beautiful view of the San Francisco skyline that’s just to die for. I seriously want to live there. Spectacular! We took Hudson with us which was pretty funny since it was his first wedding and I ended up having to walk away from the outdoor ceremony because he was laughing hysterically at-well, I’m not sure. It was really cute and he was having such a nice time. He also ate risotto for the first time and LOVED it. He literally ate all of mine, which was sad because it was good and I wanted some. They also had a photo booth at this wedding as well! I love that that is the new hip thing. It’s such fun. Luckily, this time, unlike at the last wedding we attended- our pics came out super cute. I plan to scan them soon. Hudson feel asleep and we felt bad for him so we left around 9:30 which makes us officially old and lame. :/

Saturday we went to Half Moon Bay to go to Lemo’s Farms pumpkin patch. I was stoked! We left around two and the normally 15 minute drive from our house to the coast was over an hour. Insane! Or course we were totally late for the party which was sad. But, Lucas looked like he was having a great time. Hudson got to enjoy his first trip to the pumpkin patch and we enjoyed watching him take it all in. It’s amazing to think “holy crap- what this kid must be making of all of this!?!” I’ll go out on a limb and show some pics of Hudson on the blog since my husband rarely checks. He had a great time and my cousin Laura took some shots of him in the pumpkins which she is bringing me tomorrow. I’m stoked. Here’s a few that we took with the crappy camera.

Scott, Laura, Hudson & I @ Lemo’s Farms.

Scott, Ryan and Hudson on the Lemo’s Farms ghossssttttt train!!! Spoooookkkyyyyy.

Annnnnddd the little one eating hay.

Today, we took on the biggest challenge of the weekend. The 49ers game at Candlestick. A good friend of mine had a client GIVE HER 20 tickets. 20!! So a big group went. Scott, Hudson and myself have all never been to a football game so it was kinda exciting even though I am not a huge football fan.

Let’s say there may be a reason football and I don’t get along.

The rest of the group went early. Like 9AM to tailgate. I knew that was a no-go with the baby so we planned to meet up with them around 12. We got everything together- including our straight up tundra gear and headed to get sandwiches. We got texted a list from our friends at the game and basically spent allll our cash on sandwiches. Which was fine, since we were getting paid back when we got there. We were just leaving our town when our buddy texted us that parking cost $25!!! a car!!! TWENTY FIVE! Luckily, we had exactly 25 dollars cash left between us so we drive up to Candlestick.

Those of you not from the area- Candlestick Park is in the STRAIGHT UP 150% GHETTTTTTTOOOOHHHHH. Like, I was nervous. Of course, we come to find out parking is $30.00 and in the ghetto- there is not one ATM in site. Sooooo, we couldn’t park in the parking lot and had to literally venture into a housing project that was surrounded by a barbed wire fence to park. I was fearing for our safety because at this point we are parked a good two miles from the park itself. Luckily, we were not mugged or shot on the way to meeting our friends. But, I did have to walk two miles, while 16 weeks pregnant with twins- feeling (and looking!) 32 weeks pregnant with one- while carrying 10 sandwiches, three coats, a giant diaper bag, a bag full of bottled sodas and another bag full of chips. Scott had to carry the baby and some other crap. I was literally sweating BULLETTTTTTSS.

Once it was time to go in- that was ANOTHER debacle, as the giant escalator just stopped working due to the fact that too many people were on it at once. This thing was STEEP and went up about -no joke- 6 stories. Our group decided to walk up. I decided somewhere about 5 stairs from the top that I was going to have a heart attack. It was suppppper hard. Even members of the group in better shape were winded. I was proud that I was totally OK until the very top. At that point- I just needed my seat. Showed our ticket to the usher and they sent us to our seats. Except they weren’t our seats and we were arguing with people to “get out of our seats” when we were sent to the wrong section. AWESOME. So, we had to walk hella further to finally get to our seats. Which were better than the ones we were arguing for. Anyhow, long story short is that the 49ers won in what could only be called a massacre, as the Rams scored nothing while the 9ers were at 38 when we left towards the end of the 4th quarter.

View from our seats.

Sharing a laugh with my little one.

My baby boy enjoying his first football game.

One of the funniest parts of the day was every time the 49ers made a touchdown everyone was jumping up and screaming. SOOOO LOUD inside the stadium. Hudson’s face was hilarious. It wasn’t so much scared, because he didn’t cry- he smiled. But, it was pure shock every time the crowd went wild. His mouth would just drop open like he was just stunned that people could be so loud. I think he really enjoyed it.

And, since I’ve totally cheated this post with my Hudson pics- I’m gonna throw in these two stunners for shits and giggles.

Hudson receiving kisses from his evil doggie Coco, who’s eyes turn red like that in about 99% of photos. Ask anyone who’s met her- she really is evil times a million!!

And this, my friends, is what I woke up to Saturday morning. I cheated and let Hudson sleep with us both Thursday and Friday night- heck even half of last night! I love cuddling and anyways- yeah. I let him break the rules this weekend. Saturday morning Scott headed to work and I woke up to Hudson sitting at the end of the bed playing with the remote. I think this is why I can’t let him sleep with us anymore. He might crawl off the bed while I’m sleeping. Talk about dangerous! But, with a face like that greeting you- how exactly can you say no!?!

More pumpkin patch pics to come once Laura brings me her photos.

Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend full of fun with their friends and family. I know we did! <3

PS: So much for those coats today because it was HOT in the city. Scott and I got fried!! (luckily, I like Hudson so he had on 70 SPF) I carried them for nothing.

Anyhow, tonight, my brother & my cousin came over as well because my little cousin (he’s not little at all 15- and 6’3”!) is trying out for an ice hockey league and wanted to come to the rink at Fashion Island/Bridgepoint to practice. So, Me and the boys went along while my Mom & Dad stayed back with the baby. It was a lot of fun. I hadn’t done it in so long though- a few months before I got pregnant- so it’s been WELL over a year. I got tired pretty fast, it’s a lot of work, I gotta tell you. But we stuck it out for a little over an hour.

After, we came home at watched SYTYCD with Nonnie & Papa! It was AWESOME, as you probably know.

Ok, night night.

I NEED to start exercising again because I am a giant huge fat ass.

And by run, I mean I will most likely sit on my ass all day.

But, I took the first step and took the Nikes out and set them by the door…so I have to look at them on my way to the kitchen! lol.

ZORBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBB. Those crazy New Zelanders (is that the correct name for a citizen of NZ?!)
