Hudson's 2 Month Dr. Appointment

We went to see Dr. S on Monday for Hudson's 2 month check up. He did great and was tough for his first round of shots. Here are his stats:
Weight: 11 pounds 2.5 ounces -- 45th percentile
Height: 22 1/2 inches -- 30th percentile
Head Circumference: 40 1/2 cm -- 60th percentile
Here are some pics of Hudson on his 2 month birthday:
Throughout his second month, here are some of the things he's been doing:
  • Loves hanging in his crib watching his mobile and kicking his piano pad at the end of the crib
  • Doesn't like tummy time as much in his crib or on the floor, but likes it when laying on my chest
  • Head and neck control is getting better and better. When he sits in our lap he will turn his head from side to side checking out his surroundings
  • Coos back and forth with us and smiles all the time
  • Has discovered his hands and checks them out
  • If he gets upset he likes to be sung to in his ear or shhh'ed really loudly and bounced/walked around
  • He's more engaged when we read books to him and is interested in looking at the pictures
  • Knows his mommy and daddy's voices
  • Still likes his paci and to be swaddled and is also sucking on his hand more
  • Starting to sleep 6-8 hour stretches starting around  7 or 8 pm and then wakes up around 3 to eat
  • The morning time is his most alert and happy time of the day
  • Feeds every 2-3 hours in the AM and then it spreads out in the PM
  • Likes his bath and we usually bathe him every other day or so
  • Likes to hold his O-Ball and likes toys that make sound
  • Still likes to nap in his swing for anywhere from 30 minutes to 3 hours!
  • Really likes to look at baby faces in books
  • Starting to not like his car seat at all until we can get the car moving
