We still have a dog

Hudson really enjoys looking at pictures and we've been spending time looking at past blog posts.  Today, Hudson asked to look at pictures of 'good girl', which is his name for her.  I realized that it has been over a year since Zoe made the blog, so wanted to add a few pics of her.  These were taken in the spring.

This summer, Zoe was approved to participate in a therapy dog program.  She has visited the Children's Home at Johns Hopkins Hospital and the Ronald McDonald House.  She has been such a blessing in our lives and we're excited about the opportunity to allow her to share her love to families going through difficult times.

Apple picking

This past weekend we went apple picking at our favorite local farm. We were a few weeks early for the epic apple fritters and hot apple cider, but we loaded up on fresh apples and Hudson had a great time pulling apples off a tree for the first time while William nicely slept the whole time.

Papa B & Ama Byker's visit

My parents came down from Michigan to meet William and hang out with Hudson in the middle of August.   They were very helpful and we enjoyed their visit.

Bryant and his boys

 Hudson has been very sweet to William and likes to rock the bouncy chair, help change diapers and give lots of kisses.

Hudson loves to do puzzles and his favorites are of the 'Thomas the Tank Engine' variety.
