5 Months {Hudson James}

Happy 5 Months Hudson James!

It is so hard to believe that it has been 5 months since you came into this world with a bang.  I will never forget the horrendous storm that night when my water broke. The fact that I went into full on hard labor within 15 minutes. And that I had to wait almost 2 hours for the anesthesiologist. And then another 2 hours in the operating room where my spinal would wear off (ouch). And then the joy of toting a catheter around for a week. Fun times!

But if I have to say one thing you are totally worth it!

Every time I see your sweet smile or look down at your face I can't help but think how much I love you and how blessed I am to be called your Momma. 

I'

I love how you just go with the flow of things. Not that you have much choice with a brother & sister.

What we're up to:

• I'm guessing you weigh in at around 16 lbs (can't believe you were 6 lbs just 5 months ago)
• This past week you have mastered rolling from your back to stomach. This makes you mad though because I think you hate your stomach.
• You went to the beach for your 3rd time which is your 4th trip!
• You love sucking your thumb, no more paci's for you.
• Wearing 3-6 months
• You love to talk & coo
• Wearing size 2 diapers
• Sleep around 12 hours/night & 2 naps during the day
• Love to eat! Nursing every 3 hours
• You LOVE rice cereal & get so mad when you see us eat. Baby food is right around the corner.

2 Months Already {Hudson James}

A tad late post but Hudson turned 2 months on the 12th. Time has flown by so quickly & I would be lying if I said that I was happy about it. With Hudson being my last (most likely) I already miss him being the little 6 lb 12 oz baby I held in the hospital.

As of last week we were weighing in at 12 pounds 12 ounces & 24 inches long!
The doctor is still completely amazed at how much weight you've gained.

• Still nursing every 3 hours
• FINALLY started sleeping through the night. Up until then you were getting up around 3-4 AM for a feeding. You would immediately go back to sleep though so I can't argue too much about that
• Can roll over from stomach to back
• Love the paci
• Despite taking Axid the reflux is still bothering you. You often have coughing spells. We're working on finding something new to help with that
• You love to smile & coo
• You love to be held & cuddled. I LOVE it!
