2 Months Old!

Hudson Matthew you turned 2 months old on Monday. How are you already this old?? Time is flying by and you are such a joy to have around. We all love you to pieces!

What you have been up to:

You are still eating around 3 to 4 oz. every two to three hours. You eat a lot more in the evening than you do during the day. But the Dr. said this is good....he said you are eating more in the evening to start stocking up to make it through the night. He said most babies don't do this so soon but to be happy you are. Hopefully this leads to you sleeping through the night soon! You are still going to bed around 10 or 11 and then getting up around 3 and 6.

I just moved you to size 2 diapers yesterday. You have chubby little thighs just like your sister. You are in 3 month clothes and some 3-6 months. You are growing so fast, there are already some 3 month sleepers that you are getting too long for.

The last week you have become so much more alert and are starting to hit the toys hanging from your play gym. I don't think you actually know what you are doing but you know how to do it. It's so cute watching you concentrate on hitting your toys sometimes you go crazy and hit them really fast and other times you try to move your hand as slow as possible.

You are holding your head up so well. The Dr. was very impressed and said you were holding your head up like a 4 month old. You love to be held up on the shoulder so you can look around. You have started to follow people around the room with your eyes. You love watching Kinley and Riley running around. :)

You had three shots and an oral vaccine at your two month check up and you did not like the shots at all!!! My poor little baby! You cried and screamed like I have never heard you scream before. You were so sad. The whole way out of the Dr.'s office you still had your super sad pouty lip out and were whining the whole way out the door. Daddy and I could not believe how loud you were screaming and felt so bad for you.

Your 2 month stats:

Length: 22 1/4 25%

Weight: 12 lbs. 12 oz. 70%

Head Circ.: 15 1/8 25%

~Little Turkeys~

Just for fun I did a little comparison of Kinley and Hudson in their little turkey shirts. Since they were both born in September it's fun to compare them as Hudson gets older. So far I don't think they look too much alike besides the same cute little pointy chin. Kinley's head is a lot more round and Hudson's seems more narrow.

Happy Thanksgiving!

All Smiles...

Hudson has started to smile and actually mean it here the last couple of days. I got lucky and snapped this picture today. Look at those chubby cheeks! :)

What a chubber.....look at those chins and big buddha belly... :)

~Brothers~

I Love Quincy!

We made a trip to Quincy this weekend to visit the grandparents and to pick up Matt's new toy....a riding lawn mower. Kinley loves going to Quincy...when we were getting close she was practically bouncing out of her seat going "I love Quincy!! I can't wait!!" Great Grandma Ginny finally got to meet Hudson. He must have loved being there too because he was awake almost the whole time we were there.

Mommy's Little Monster(s)

Kinley isn't usually a big fan of getting her picture taken....until I start taking pictures of her brother. :)

Trick or Treat

Sunday afternoon we took the kids around to Grandma and Grandpa Nafzigers and each of the Great Grandparents to show off their costumes and get some candy. Riley was a zombie ninja, Kinley was Cinderella and Hudson was a candy corn.

We took Kinley trick or treating on Monday night and I think she thought the day would never come.... She asked every night to go trick or treating and we had to explain that people wouldn't have their candy yet and they didn't have their porch lights on. :) She loved every minute of it and loved coming back to Grandma and Grandpa's to hand out candy to other trick or treaters. Hudson visited a few houses with us, and then we took him back to Grandma and Grandpa's while we headed out to get a little more candy. :) It was such a nice night out and a wonderful Halloween!
