Here are some highlights from the 4th week of August.
Hudson playing w/ his shark during bath time. Baby Shark.
My friend Eve came over for dinner Tuesday night. She came from Missouri to visit her sister before she passed away here in SLC, then they had her funeral a week later. We were able to sneak in a visit in between all her family stuff. I'm thankful she was able to come. It was great to catch up w/ her. We wish she lived closer so we could visit more often.
On Wednesday, August 24th, while I was working in our room, I heard some noises in Hudson's room and thought it was Steve. Well a little while later, Hudson opened our bedroom door. I picked him up, thinking Steve was close by, but he was downstairs. I then realized he must have figured out how to climb out of his crib by himself. I then put him back in his crib to see if he could do it again, and sure enough, he climbed out all by himself!
Eve and I. Silly Piper just relaxing in our room while I work.
Hudson so proud of himself after figuring out how to climb out of his crib.

Cute boys playing in the sandbox (we've been going out each morning to play before it gets hot and before school many days). Then playing on the playground after school. We are starting to pick our pears from our tree. We have a LOT this year!
Cute Hudson and his silly poses while napping.
Hudson fell outside on the pavement while playing w/ chalk and got a scrape on his knee.
Friday after school, Steve took the boys to Classic Fun Center for a couple hours to play on their scooters and do some games. They met a their friends Colin and Austin.
Afterwards they got a snow cone.
On Saturday, August 27th, we floated down the Provo River. Rob came over and went down w/ us. We then met Stacie/Phill/Claire/Conor at the launch site. It was a little tricky getting in since the river is moving pretty good, but we eventually got everyone in and met up a little later down the river.
We connected Carter on the back of Steve's kayak and Hudson sat in front of him.
On our way!
The river was moving us along most of the way. Only a few spots were needed to keep going.
There were a few places where we went through small rapids, but they were fun!
We stopped for just a minute as we got everyone together again. Then we were on our way again. There were LOTS of people going down on innertubes, and some on paddle boards.
We stopped one more time to get out and go around a bridge. We read that the innertubes going down the river should get out so they don't hit the bridge walls and pop, and since we couldn't see around the corner, we decided to get out as well. Mostly we didn't want to chance it w/ Hudson and Carter connected w/ Steve. After looking at it from the other side, we think we could have gone through the bridge. We'll have to try next time, assuming the water isn't running fast.

Picking more pears from our tree. Hudson made a mess, then got his vacuum to clean it up :)
Sunday evening we went over to Diane/LuDean's for dinner and to celebrate Hudson' birthday w/ them and Dave/Joann. Diane had a cute fishing shark game we all played. Hudson also loves to play w/ the toy BBQ set whenever we come to visit.
Taking turns fishing for sharks. Carter caught one!
Hudson playing w/ his birthday hat and trying to catch a shark.
We then sang Happy Birthday to Hudson w/ his dinosaur cake I made.
Hudson had fun trying to sing w/ us and then blowing out the candles. He did great!
Singing Happy Birthday to Hudson.
His brothers then helped him open his gifts. Thank you for the thoughtful gifts and Diane for the super fun game and cute decorations. We really appreciate you thoughtfulness.

Great quotes.
