da da da

Hudson's first sound was "na na na na". Then, he added "da da da" to his vocab. He pretty much dropped the na nas completely and constantly says da da now. I never get sick of it though! And neither does Jason who thinks that Hudson is actually calling out for him. We spent last week in College Station with my parents. The best part about being there was getting to enjoy the snow for a day! I didn't take Hudson out in it because he doesn't have a coat. Maybe next year we'll get some more snow.

Hudson is so close to crawling. He can get on to all fours from his tummy and from sitting. Then, he rocks back and forth. He gets frustrated really easily and starts crying. It's really pitiful.
We had stopped playing in our jumparoo when we got a walker. Last week, we brought out the jumparoo again and it was like it was a new toy. He jumps really high and fast while squealing and smiling. Well, I guess he gets tired really fast because Twice now he has fallen asleep while jumping. I won't realize it though because from the other room I can hear him bouncing. But he's asleep! It's hilarious. So, I get him out and put him in his crib and he stays asleep.
And we got a big boy car seat (about 2 months overdue)! My mom got us the Britax Marathon just like cousin Will, Asher, and Addie have. He likes it ok. I think he just needs to get used to it. Hudson has expanded his diet since my last post. He likes his squash, sweet potatoes (also with turkey or corn), mixed veggies, bananas, pears, apples, blueberries, peaches, apricots. He did not seem to like avocado the first time I tried, but we'll try it again.

That's all on Hudson updates. We are all doing great here. Jason is busy at work, but doing very well. I'm already counting down until April 15 and crossing my fingers for a beach vacation.
