The Health Nurse Doesn't Believe Me...

but here is the proof that my little guy rolls from belly to back and back to belly.

It's a Poopspiracy

My husband, Dustin, works out of town; he misses lots of things like snuggles and smiles and rolling over and all of the new wonderful things Hudson does. It's regrettable that he misses those things, and I try to capture them on video and film so that he feels a part of all of the firsts. There is however one thing that he doesn't seem to be sad about missing and that is the dreaded POOPY DIAPER.

Over the course of Hudson's life I have changed quite a few poopy diapers...in fact, I've had the misfortune of changing most all of them. Now, that is of course expected being that my husband works out of town, but over the course of the last four months, I've realized there seems to be a Poopspiracy going on. In fact I'd go as far as to call it Poopgate.

Whenever Dustin is home, Hudson conveniently seems to either not poop on the day daddy is watching him or manages to time his poops so that daddy is out, sleeping, bathing, or otherwise not present for said poop....

Hmmmm I think we have a poopspiracy on our hands. Daddy has been home for 10 days, and in that time he has changed 2.5 diapers...I say 2.5 only because I credit him for a diaper I had to help him with, so he gets a .5 for it. I on the other hand have changed 8 diapers in that same 10 day period....

No more I say, no more. I am on to you guys, I know your plans. Diapers will be changed, and not by me.

Worst Mum Ever...

Hudson is 4 months old; I completely missed my 3 month update. I am practically the worst mum ever. I haven't taken enough pictures or video, updated my blog, scrap-booked, written in his baby book or anything. He's growing and changing before my very eyes and I can't seem to capture enough of it. Most days there just isn't enough time....but believe me I'm not complaining. I love every moment of every day that I get to spend with my amazing little boy.

Yesterday Hudson was weighed and measured at his 4 month vaccinations. He weighs 13 lbs 15 oz and he's 23.5" long. He's just a little guy, in the 25th percentile right now, but I think he'll catch up. He broke my heart at his shots, he cried so hard and was so upset...it was so hard to see him all worked up like that, but he calmed down before we even left the room and promptly fell asleep. He's been a bit more sensitive today but nothing major; definitely not like some of the horror stories I've heard from some mum's about the 4 month immunizations.

I had some three month photos to post, I'll have to go back and insert those as a three month after-thought post. I haven't taken any four month pictures yet, but I will add them in when I get a chance.

Hudson is now rolling from back to tummy and tummy to back which apparently is great. He has really good head control and loves his Bumbo seat. He thinks everything is hilarious and loves to study everyone's faces. He's a spoiled little guy, with three sets of grandparents, and he's been to more movies than even most of my friends, highlights include: Up, Harry Potter, and Funny People.
