Thirty Six Weeks

On May 1st Hudson turned 36 weeks old. He weighs 17 pounds 11 ounces. Hudson hasn't been feeling well this past week. It started with the fever last week, then after 3 nights of fevers and a doctor visit where they confirmed it was viral with no ear infection and no uti, he seemed to be better. On Saturday, Hudson started to act fussy again and by Sunday he had a cold. On the 1st, his snot had turned yellow and at our allergy appointment, the doctor confirmed what I was already thinking: Hudson had an ear infection. I have seen numerous friends post about cuddling with their babies on the couch when they are sick, but not Hudson. He has been fussier than normal, clingier than normal, eating less than normal and not sleeping as well at night, but overall, being sick hasn't slowed him down much. Hudson has still been crawling all over the place, standing up on everything and cruising along the furniture. Hudson likes to pick up rugs (or edges of large rugs)and look under them. He also loves to pick small clumps of lint off the carpet. This week Hud has had prunes, mangos, and apple rice cakes.
