7 Months + Bye Bye Helmet!




We went to the orthotist yesterday and good news that the helmet phase of Hudson's short life is over! We are so thankful that it only lasted about 10.5 weeks rather than the 4-6 months that was originally stated. The orthotist attributed this fast treatment to Hudson having some good growth spurts. Hudson weighs in at a little over 22lbs according to our bathroom scale. We feel every pound of it when we carry him. He is getting really active and still far from crawling. He can't seem to get his entire stomach off the floor. We are enjoying the peace before the whole new world of crawling changes our everyday life. Hudson is also enjoying life with his two bottom teeth and we are thankful to report that he can eat yogurt! This doesn't seem like a big deal but we were happy to dodge the whole dairy allergy this time around!
