8 pound big boy!

Hudson had another weigh in at the pediatrician's office yesterday.... he's an ENORMOUS 8 lbs and 1.5 ounces- YEAH! He's growing and growing everyday- he hardly looks like the same baby he was 2 1/2 weeks ago. I can't even imagine what he will look like this time next year.
Thursday we headed back to Dallas for his orthodontist appointment. It was pretty traumatic. Thankfully, the doctor warned us how he would potentially react to having molds taken of his mouth, so I was prepared for his screaming bloody murder and holding his breath. Poor baby. It was probably harder on me than it was on him. :( His "retainer" will be ready next week, and we'll head back to Dallas to have it fitted. He'll have to wear it all the time for the next 9 months, and probably have to have multiple ones made as he grows. We'll have to clean it after every feeding and he'll keep it in his mouth with denture cream. WhoEVER thought I'd be buying and using denture cream on my almost 3 week old. Interesting,...
Other than being bombarded by a massive amount of doctor appointments this week (5 to be exact!), all is well on the home front. This baby is loved by more people than he'll ever know. He's received lots of presents, and probably won't have to wear the same outfit more than once for the next year! He's a bit spoiled to say the least!
That's all for now!
