Hudson is 3 months old today! He is one very loved little boy. The girls continue to smoother him with hugs and kisses and are constantly in his face. He's growing like crazy and getting so big. I feel like I'm starting to get a good idea of his personality and it's fun to see how opposite he is from both of the girls. He is very laid back and although you really have to work for a smile from him, when he does flash one we all get giddy (and Handley usually runs to get her camera).
At 3 months he:
-is pretty strong with great head/neck control
-has a very flexible schedule throughout the day, but has a very predictable routine
-isn't a fan of riding the car when he is sleepy, but can fall asleep most anywhere with a little help
-still sleeps swaddled at night
-has been going to bed around 7:30-8:00 PM, wakes between 3-4 AM, and then goes back to sleep until 7:30/8:00 AM***
-is only interested in the paci when he is tired
-tries to get his fingers/thumb in his mouth, but isn't quite able to get them and keep them there yet
-is happy to sit in the stroller or bouncy seat and observe what's going on around him
-has started cooing and "talking" a lot to us
-usually has a very serious look on his face
-seems to react and smile at his big sister, Handley, more than anyone
***Last night he slept 7:30 PM - 7:30 AM!!! 12 hours!!!
Notice the Halloween stickers on Hudson's outfit below. Every time he does something the girls deem worthy, they give him what they call a "reward sticker" for doing a good job. He "earns" stickers for everything from smiling, cooing and holding head up high during tummy time.

The reward stickers are cracking me up. And that top picture of him...oh my word, what a sweet little expression on his precious little face.
And yay for a flexible baby during the day, and a great sleeper at night. It doesn't get any better than that, you know!
He is getting so big! He is just so cute! The "reward" stickers made me laugh out loud. So funny! Hope he continues to let you get some sleep! :)
Wow, what a treat you guys get when Hudson does smile.
Yea for Hudson's 3 month bday! It's going so fast!! And I love that he celebrated with an all nighter - Go Hudson!!
3 Months! And so handsome! So glad he is settling into a routine so nicely and that it fits into the entire family's routine! What a lucky boy to get so much love! I know I was so happy to hold him the last few times I have gotten to see him. He is precious!
