So here I am. I’m a mom. A mom with a baby who will be 13 weeks old tomorrow. I have a 3 month old people. A 3 month old little human being.
Time has literally flown by ridiculously fast, like hummingbird wing fast. I am going to post Hudson’s birth story tomorrow coming up here soon but here are some of the things I want to remember about Hudson right now:
The way he smiles at me with his big gummy grin
His patchy little balding head (I thought he might not lose that newborn hair, but alas, it’s falling out)
Watching him really see the things around him for the first time
The way he sleeps snuggled up to me, with one hand on me at all times (yes we co-sleep, more to come on that later)
The way he wakes himself up with the farts ever morning
Feeling his little body relax when I pick him up if he’s upset
Feeling his little tooth try to pop through while he drools and gnaws on my knuckle like it’s the most delicious T-Bone steak (yep, he’s teething already)
How he smells
The munchy little face he makes when he nurses
Seeing his eyes light up when he sees his dad (watching them together is magical)
This list could go on forever. We spend so much time just watching him exist. We call it Hudson TV…and it is so entertaining (for us at least). We have about a billion nicknames for him including: bubba, bubs, mr. bubinski, wiggly worm, wiggly biggly, boobaloo, dude, duder, duderface, chunkermonker…and the list goes on. We are ridiculous and we know it. Don’t judge us. You would nickname the H E Double Hockey Sticks out of your kid if he was as cute as Hudson:)
We were really blessed to have our wonderful Sister-in-Law Keara take family photos of us. In fact, all the pictures in this post belong to her and she rocks it hard core to the max (barnesblog07.blogspot.com). These pics are unedited and so awesome in all of their unedited glory! I can't wait to see the suped up versions! YAY for Keara:)
In more recent news, tomorrow night we fly to NY for a friend’s wedding and then off to Massachusetts to visit some family. I am super nervous about flying with a 3 month old, but am optimistic that he’ll just sleep and eat the whole time. Wishful thinking? I don’t know- I’ll let you know when we get back. Any who’s a what’s its…that’s all for now folks. Hudson, Kim and Gary OUT!
XOXO
