Thirty Three Weeks

On April 10th, Hudson turned 33 weeks old.Hudson now weighs 17 pounds 10 ounces. He went to his first hockey game this week and loved it! He also sat in his first highchair. He was pretty amused by this and we could tell he felt all proud that he is now a big boy who can sit at the table. We also tried My Gym this week and Hudson seemed to really like it. He was easily the most vocal kid in the class. Hudson has a side of the crib that he prefers (of course its the side we have trouble seeing on the monitor). He hates having his diaper changed! He cries, rolls over and crawls away. It is as if he just doesn't have time for the diaper change or getting dressed for that matter (imagine when I add the lotion routine into the mix). The changes get in the way of his exploring, so I usually end up wrestling him during the diaper change trying to distract him with funny noises, songs and forbidden toys like my iphone. Then I just chase him around while lotioning and dressing him. Hudson has gotten really good at standing, he is pretty obsessed with it and is so proud of himself every time he stands up. He pulls himself up, then immediately looks around for praise with the hugest smile on his face. He has also gotten good at sitting back down. He stands up, realizes he wants a toy so he sits back down, then realizes he wants to stand again. He does this over and over again. One time he was able to bend over and pick up a toy while staying standing. He has started giving open mouth kisses! At Gymboree this week, he crawled up a wedge and through a tunnel. We were so proud! We went to the park this week too because Hudson loves the swings! This week he has had carrots, and peas. He also had his first night feed and ate an entire jar of sweet potato!
