5 months

Hudson turned five months on October 9th. He is growing so fast. Time can finally stop please. 

Hudson has definitely turned a corner. They even noticed in the church nursery that he is a different baby. He doesn't scream all the time anymore!

Hudson is around 18-1/2 lbs. He wears 9 month clothes and size 3 diapers. 

Hudson still nurses around 7:30am, 10:30am, 1pm, 4pm, and takes a 6oz bottle and nurses at 7:30pm. He eats baby food for breakfast, lunch, and dinner with the family. He loves baby food now and his rice cereal. He's tried all of the stage 1 foods. I'm starting to make some puréed  bananas and sweet potatoes with a little more texture. Like all our babies, Hudson loves to eat!

He gets a morning nap still on the go in his car seat or at bible study or the gym for about an hour and then gets a good 2 hr nap from 2-4 in his crib while Carmen naps. Hudson has finally started sleeping 12 hrs at night! Yay! He goes from 7:30-7:30 most nights. Game changer!
I'm very strict with sleep and food schedules. It is the only way I can manage 3 kids on my own half the time. Their lives are very predictable, which works out great!

Hudson rolls in all directions and sleeps mostly on his belly. He always likes his belly while laying on the ground now and is trying to pull up more. 

He loves to laugh all the time and thinks Roman hung the moon! I love his dimple so much when he smiles!

Hudson loves songs like' the Itsy bitsy spider' and 'row your boat'. He loves music already. Most entertainment comes from big bro and sis though. 

He has become such a happy little boy now that his tummy isn't hurting all the time. 

We love you so much sweet Hudson! God has big plans for you!
