Hudson :: 3 Months Old

My sweet Hudson,

You are 3 months old today! How in the world did that happen? We are absolutely loving this age right now. We were just talking yesterday about how fun, easy, happy and perfect you are. If I had known how easy you would be we probably wouldn't have waited almost 6 years to have you! :)

You are such a happy and content baby. You only cry (which really isn't even a full cry all the time) if you are hungry or tired. You will fuss sometimes if you have a dirty diaper but not always. And if you are tired of being in a certain position. You've been this way from the beginning though. Always easy to calm down!

You love love love your mobile on your crib. You've enjoyed it for a while but just this month you've been able to stay in there watching it for 30+ minutes. I love that you can entertain yourself for a while during the day. I hope that you are able to do this for a long time. I think it's important that you can play by yourself some.

You still love your swing and activity mat but you are still not a fan of tummy time. We definitely cannot do tummy time right after you eat. There is a small window of opportunity for tummy time. Not right after you eat and but if we do it when you are getting hungry you just get mad because you are hungry.

You are SO close to rolling over from tummy to back. Every time you are doing tummy time we have the video camera going hoping to catch it. It will happen any day now. We will sometimes help you roll over so you can see how it feels.

You also still spit up a lot. But you are happy and smiling when it happens and you are gaining weight so the doctor says you will grow out of it someday. We go through so many burp cloths though. :)

You now love getting your diaper changed. Your changing table is a happy place for you and you will do so much smiling and cooing there. You love the pictures hanging above the changing table and you also have a good view of the fan...which you love!

You still aren't consistently sleeping through the night (in my book) but some people say that you are. You will go about 7-8 hours without waking up but depending on when you go to bed you sometimes wake up around 4:00. But you will go back to sleep pretty quickly so it's not too bad.

You still love standing up. That is your favorite position to be in so we've started using your Baby Einstein jumper. We have to put something under your feet because you are still technically too small for it but you really enjoy it.

We are crazy about you sweet boy!

Love,
Mommy
