Hudson Update

Hudson is now almost 19 months old. He had his 18 month checkup and he is still our little guy. He's in the mid 40th percentiles for both height and weight. He finally started getting the rest of his teeth about 2 months ago. Unfortunately for him, his teeth are slow and agonizing about coming in, so we've been slowly watching them creep up over the past 2 months. I saw molars today and maybe eye teeth right under the surface, so hopefully he'll get them in and have a break before the 2 year molars come in.
He is a busy little boy! He thinks he's a big boy, thanks to some big brothers that like to include him in everything, so that is a major contention point in our house. He's constantly throwing a fit, because he doesn't get to do what the big boys are doing. His 2 favorite big boy activities to do are: playing the piano and feeding the fish. Every time I tell Cullen and Aiden it's time for piano practice, Hudson runs right over, climbs up on the bench and starts playing. Flounder, the fish, sits on the kitchen table. Hudson loves to climb on the chairs, grab the fish food and shake it over flounder's bowl.
He's also learned some great words from his brothers. My favorite, a little sarcasm, is "mine", but they also taught him "unbuckle", so when we stop the car we hear "unbubu?". He also knows "Hi", "Bye bye", "night night", "apple", "water(wawa)", "milk", "ball" and "Bob the Builder (Ba da Baba)".
He loves to brush his teeth, read books, play outside, and be in the water. He also loves being the funny guy. I have a feeling he is going to be very unhappy when he's no longer the only show in town.
