8 months

Dear Hudson,

Today you are 8 months old. You are quite the bundle of energy. You haven't learned how to crawl yet but you have gotten quite good at rolling and scootching to get where you want to go. You are so aware of everything around you and rarely sit still. Even when we're holding you, you are looking around and trying to get down. It's kind of amazing we haven't dropped you yet.

• Weight: 22.5 lbs
• Height: 30 inches???
• Sleep: Much better now, we get some 4 and 5 hour stretches these days, naps are sometimes better.  You sleep great in the car
• Nicknames: Bug, Mister, Big Guy
• Talking up a storm, said "mama"
• Pulled yourself up from a sit to a stand
• Favorite Book: 
• Favorite Toys:
• Favorite Foods: You haven't been eating much.  Food makes  you throw up, which is so sad.  We talked to Miss Sarah (speech lady friend) and she said you probably just have a really strong gag reflex.  We'll keep trying.
• Teeth: Two on the bottom, one on top and the other top one is almost through

It was really hard to get you to sit still for this months picture.  It took both Daddy and I to get a decent one.  We got lots of other pictures with some very funny faces.

Love,

Mommy
