Happy 1 month

Today is Hudson's 1 month birthday.  I can't believe how quickly time is moving, it really does feel as if he were just born yesterday.

Happy 1 month Hudson!

 

I love how he is staring at the teddy bear in this picture

 

Throwing gang symbols - love his skinny little legs, also

Not really a noticeable difference from 3 days to 1 month
Here he is 3 days old

~HUDSON~

I don't have a set of baby scales, but I'm guessing you to be about 8 1/2 pounds.

You are still wearing some newborn clothes and are starting to fit into some 0-3 month clothes -most are still a little too big - although,  I think you are going through a growth spurt now so I'm guessing you will be fitting into them very shortly.

You still wear newborn diapers, but they are definitely getting small.  I have put you in size 1's a couple of times to try them out and they are still pretty big. 

You are starting to stay awake a little longer after feedings.  We try and put you in your swing for a few minutes and practice tummy time a couple of times per day and then you are ready to go right back to sleep. 

You are loving bath time.  It took 3 weeks for your cord to fall off so you've only had a couple of tub baths, but you seem so happy and content.

Your Daddy and I love reading and rocking you right before bedtime.  You're so sweet and cuddly.  I still can't kiss you enough.  

You were sleeping 5-6 hours through the night, but the past 3 nights you have been getting us up about every 3-4 hours (I'm hoping it's from a growth spurt).  

Everyday I think you look more and more like your Daddy.

We love your facial expressions -from shocked to scared to smiles to serious.

You are our sweet, precious gift from God!   We are so...thankful for you.  We love you so much! 

We couldn't ask for a better Christmas present!
