Week 5

Well this week, my dear, you started staring at my mouth when I talk and listening to what I'm saying. It's the cutest thing ever. You get all bright eyed and quiet. I'm trying to repeat words to you over and over so you get to know them for when you start talking. I started singing twinkle twinkle little star which you seem to really enjoy because you are totally staring at me.
your head and neck have become even stronger and it's amazing how much you sit up on your own already! You are fitting into this little booster seat even better now.

We went on our first full day trip with your Uncle Joe and Auntie Shanna to do wedding stuff with them and you did soooo great. I was so proud.

You smiled at me this week. I was changing you in the living room and talking to you and you smiled! I loved it so much, you brought tears to my eyes.
Daddy worked from home on Wednesday and I went out for a bit to get some mommy time. I headed to Barnes and Noble for some photography reading to take better pictures of you. I bought you your first book called "Guess how much I love you" by Sam McBratney illustrated by Anita Jeram and read it to you. I was surprised that you were so entertained. You lied there on the bed listened to me quite intently.

I read that you have been going through a growth spurt from week 4 to week 6 and boy can I agree with that. You have been eating sooo much it's amazing. Sometimes hourly! But we are so thankful you aren't picky about formula, bottles compared to nursing. Daddy loves changing you because you make the most wonderful squeaks and grunts. And your arms are still punching and legs are still kickin' as you discover how to use them.

Thank you for another wonderful week, we love you!
