6 weeks!



Bubs is really 7 weeks old today, but let's just pretend we are back at 6 weeks for the pictures' sake :)

Bubs has really come alive and alert these last few weeks. Personally I woke up too around 4 weeks old! He has been smiling for awhile and now he is smiling at his toys or his favorite songs. He smiles at dad now and he has not cried while taking a bath a few times in a row (maybe his clumsy parents are getting better at that one!). We had our longest stretch of time between feedings last night - YES! He fed at 10:15pm and woke up at 5:55am - YES!

6 Week Stats:
- 13lbs, 10 oz
- 23.5 inches
- Nicknames: Bubs, Chubs, Bubs-a-roonie, Angel, baby bear, bubbie, little man
- good pooper, already had a nice blowout up the back this week
- favorite food: milk
- working on going to sleep without rocking and patting and coddling for 45 minutes :)
- likes the songs: Ba Ba Blacksheep, Jesus Loves Me, Twinkle Twinkle, Rejoice in the Lord Always (he is working on the echo part), Head Shoulders Knees & Toes (including the actions!)pretty much anything mom sings :)
- very social and alert with others, until he is tired
- clothing size: easily 3 months, his long torso is pushing him into the 3-6 month clothing
- cutest body part: eyes, big belly, big cheeks

- not as cute part: his baby acne :(

- longest road trip: 1.25 hours to the farm
- favorite place to sleep: in someone's arms, otherwise falls asleep in the carseat as long as the seat is moving in some way, can sleep okay in the crib too!

Well, we have to get him up to feed so that's all, enjoy a few pictures!
