Brother time vs. Sister time

Hudson loves his big brother and sisters.  He is always hurrying behind them, following where they go and wanting in on the fun.  "Guys,... guys!!" he will shout and then run to catch up.  Its pretty easy to tell who he has been hanging out with at any given time.  If he's making forts in the living room with laundry baskets you know big brother is involved...  
Hunter sneaks him up on his "big bed" and reads stories before bed, buying him an extra fifteen minutes of stay up time.  Hudson loves it because Hunter reads him LEGO books or books about snakes and tarantulas or other boy stuff.  He knows that they are Hunter's books and not books from his book shelf.
When I am making lunch and he comes around the corner looking like this....clearly he's been enjoying some dress up fun with the sisters.  They dress him up and put stuff in his hair.  Sometimes he is their baby or the "kid."  They tell him what to play and give him his character and he goes with it.  He will come in smiling and say "hairbow" and point to the headband or clip that they have put in his hair.  It makes me smile to see them walking by with him all done up and talking to him in their best little mommy voices.
Making silly faces in the back seat with each other when we're driving, definitely a brother thing...

Sisters make sure he has a baby to hold while he eats his lunch.
Whether it's hanging with his big bro, playing with his sisters or all four of them up to something, they keep him plenty busy and know how to wear this little guy out.
