a little more about Hudson

Hudson is feeling much better and eating more.  He is a little smaller than I expected, but his growth should catch up after his surgery.  He isn't crawling, but he scoots on his bottom across the room.  He gets tired easily from scooting or playing and rests his head every few minutes.  He smiles a lot and has a lot of personality.  He let's you know what he wants- if you try to give him a bottle or toy that he doesn't want, he'll push it away.  He LOVES his bottle and gets mad if you try to take it away before he is finished.  He started waving and giving high-5's today.  He is very alert and follows people with his eyes.  He is shy at first, but warms up to people quickly.  He'll let others hold him, but prefers his mommy.  He loves to snuggle.  He is a good sleeper and is sleeping through the nights, waking up just briefly a few times and needing to be comforted.  He loves being carried in my sling carrier and smiles when he sees me put it on.

Thanks for the update. It is so fun to check and see if there are more pictures. He is adorable. I am sure you are having a most memorable Thanksgiving and just think how special Christmas will be. We love you and are praying for you and Hudson.
