Hudson is 14 months old today!!
He is SO busy & so much fun! He doesn't sit still for a second.. Not even to watch tv! Now, I shouldn't be complaining because as I've mentioned before, I would rather my child enjoy activities above tv & video games. BUT... it would be helpful if he would just sit & watch tv for a few minutes while I get ready in the mornings! If Eric is home it is fine, but on those days he is out of town on business, getting ready takes a bit longer with a little fella tugging at me!

Hudson has 12 teeth fully in & the 4 canines are on there way.
He is wearing a size 4 or 5 diaper.
Some 18 & some 24 month clothing.
Size 5 shoes, but will probably need a bigger size before long.

Not exact on the height & weight, but definitely bigger than his 12 month appointment. I am guessing 34 inches tall & 30 lbs. (he was 33 inches & 27 lbs at 12 months)
Hudson sleeps 11 hours at night & has finally transitioned to 1 nap the past 5 days.
He absolutely LOVES books!! Loves them!

He is talking A LOT! It is so so cute! And he surprises me all the time with the timing of his words! Over the past few days, some of his new words have been: chicken, diaper, purple, baba for bath, woof woof for dog. He's been following commands for a good while on a few things such as: getting his ball, finding his choo choo train, running to the bathroom when we ask if he is ready for a bath, finding the "H" in the bathtub with his bathtub letters. It truly is amazing what all these babies are able to learn. They pick up on so many things that we don't give them credit for!
Hudson definitely knows what the camera is for & he will NOT smile! If I get a picture of him smiling, it is by accident on his part I can assure you!
Hudson started daycare today for the first time. I was not nervous about the place or the care he'd be receiving, but I was nervous about how he'd nap on the floor & in a room full of other children. From all accounts, he had a great first day! We walked in his room & he got right down & started playing! Of course he & Emory found each other first & I think that probably helped both of their comfort levels to have each other there. His teacher, Ms Mary, said that he only cried 1 time today & that was when she got onto him for putting something in his mouth. (for the 100th time, I'm sure!) He actually did go to sleep on his nap mat, too! Amazing! He didn't sleep a real long time, but hopefully that will come. Ms Mary said she just layed down beside him, patted his back & sang to him & he went to sleep!
As always, I can't believe another month has passed us by. Our sweet boy is the light of our lives & so much fun. We love you, Hudson!
Doesn't he look like a little linebacker here? So stocky & solid!
