Happy Birthday Hudson!!!!

He has grown so much! He's walking full time now and talking up a storm. Most of the stuff we have no idea what he's saying, but he does say Mama, Dada, Hi and he does the ASL sign for milk and says "Neenee". He also waves bye bye and I swear I've heard him say Cat a few times too!

Few days old


and today...3 days shy of his first birthday!!!




Stay still so I can take some pics!

Me and my best bud Madelyn


One of these days I will prbly not be smiling when my sister kisses me...in fact I'll prbly be screaming about cooties and punching her in the arm.

6 months old!

Wow I can't believe its been half a year already! We have an appt at the end of the month, but I dont need a doctor to tell me he's growing and developing just perfectly! He is almost sitting completely on his own and is trying his hardest to start crawling and keep up with his siblings. Madelyn and Jonas didn't crawl or cruise until 10 months so we'll see how this little fella does. He is starting to get more hair and it looks blond...I think it's even blonder than Madelyn because she had a little reddish tint to hers. He loves to babble on and on, he's very smiley and giggles at almost everything! In 6 more months he'll probably be walking and talking....so much to learn!

5 months old already

*waah*

I can't believe he's already 5 months *sniff*

so serious


I love this look...he cocks up his eyebrow so charming


his favorite toy...the Skwish


dude!


so this is love....

4 month well child visit

Poor little Hudson is struggling through this cold. We've been up a lot the past few nights, he's got a fever, stuffy/runny nose and a yucky cough. We got sent home with a nebulizer and he's already doing so much better. Other than that he is doing wonderfully.

Stats:
4 months (where did the time go?)
15 lbs 14oz (68%)
25 3/4 in tall (76%)


It's strange to me how little he is, both of my other babies were always over the 100% in weight and although he's still above average he seems so small to me. He still has the precious little baby rolls and dimples, but he's also wearing 3m and 6m clothing when his siblings at this age were wearing 9m and 12m clothing!!!

3 months old!!! Well 3 months and 6 days LOL

He is doing wonderfully! Jeremy and I have noticed that he seems smaller than our regular super chubby babies! He is still nice and healthy and plump, just smaller than what I'm used to lugging around LOL He is 14.5 lbs and 24 inches, which is around 50%.... Madelyn and Jonas were always over the 100th.

He is SUCH a happy little guy. Always smiling and talking. He sleeps really well. There have been times that I sat him down in his bouncy chair happy and smiling and then after a quick 2 mins doing something else I turn around and he's sleeping!!!

Madelyn and Jonas are STILL just completely enthralled over him. They only fight each other on who gets to hold him and take care of him. There hasn't been any jealousy toward Hudson at all. Its SUCH a difference from the transition we had going from 1 child to 2.





Stop taking pictures already! Geez Mom!

Yep I'm adorable

And I am a happy guy! My newest trick...SQUEALING in delight!

The many faces of Hudson--
