Been a LONG time...this is what's new...

Hello everyone again...so since last time actually not much has changed, the main thing is I had another baby, a boy, Hudson Michael, he was born August 6, 2010, weighed 8lbs 4oz and was 21ins long and Cristian 3 1/2 years old now, 4 in April which is right around the corner and he absolutely adores his baby brother. John and I are not together anymore, we parted ways shortly after I got pregnant with Hudson and hasn't been around much at all since then either. Things are great though with me and the boys, it just us three! I do have to say being a single mom of 2 is definitely different from being a single mom of 1...LOL (but it's great and I love it, wouldn't change a thing)! Hudson is 6 1/2 months old now, he is so BIG, he just laughs and giggles all the time, VERY happy baby, but I'm quite silly myself so it only makes sense that he would be a happy baby and Cristian was the same way when he was a baby. I am still with CHKD and I am very happy. No new someone since John but that's actually how I prefer it, it is a big change though because I've always had to be with someone all the time and now I honestly just feel I don't have the time for anyone else in my life right now. Plus I kind of have a lot going on with Hudson right now, he's actually had it pretty rough the 6 months he's been alive...we've ear infection after ear infection, finally had to have tubes put in then at the same time had bilateral inguinal hernias repaired and he was hospitalized for RSV after Thanksgiving and we do physical therapy once a week because he has torticollis and his WBCs went below normal so then we thought he might have a blood disorder but it's looking like he will probably grow out of it, we just have to have blood work done twice a week for 6 weeks and then we will go from there but let me tell he is a very strong little boy and I admire him so much because at the end of the day after everything we've been through and I've put him through he can still smile and laugh about it with his mommy! As for Cristian he is blooming up into a little boy so great, he's just turning into his own little person but you know that saying, "kids say the darndest things..." it is so true with him...just other night we were all laying in bed just hanging out like usual and he looked at me and then looked at Hudson and said "mommy what's him...he's Hudson Michael?" and I said "Yes Cristian he is!" So that's the update for now more again later...

Until next time...

  1. Samantha,

    I know I dont tell you often, but I want you to know... You are AMAZING! You are brave and strong! You are loving and compassionate. Everytime I look at Cristian & Hudson, I think of what an awsome Mom you have turned out to be! I still remember you coming to me breaking down, shaken and broken that you were again pregnant with another child. I know it has been tough for you, I know somedays you feel like if you have to change one more diaper, register one more patient, listen to one more whinny baby that your going to explode... but I never see that from you. You are always calm, & collected and always in good spirits! I am so very proud of you for the person you have become! I cannot wait to see that plans that God has for you Samantha! Your hard work is paying off :) I am so glad that we became friends! &&&&& I promise I will make more time for us to hang :) LOVE YA!!!-Lacey
