What I Love About You ~ 7 Weeks

I Love...

• your SMILE! 


• still love nursing you and the bond we have.


• that you weigh 12 pounds 10 ounces. . . you are a great nurser so easy to burp. :-)


• that you are starting to sleep longer at night ~ up to 4 hours. 


• your sleep schedule... if only I could get to sleep sooner. 


• that you sleep from 10 - 2 pm consistently. At 2 months (when you are not considered a newborn anymore), I will start applying more methods from the No Cry Sleep Solution. So far, the ones I am using are helping! My goal is to start going to bed by 10, so I can get 4 straight hours of sleep. Then maybe I will be rested enough to apply the methods in the middle of the night. 


• still love your Miracle Blanket. Thanks so much for the suggestion, Susana! :-)


• your SMILE! It seems like everyday you are smiling more. Your smiles are a bright spot in my day!

• how cute you are and how you are starting to notice things around you more. 

• that you are such a good sleeper with all the noise we all make. 

• those chubs! You look chubby in this pic (Nanie would love that!), but you are not that chubby. 

• you waking up and wanting to be picked up (instead of the plug). 

• you falling asleep in brothers arms right after he picked you up. 

• yes, the back of your head. 


• how your hair is starting to curl on top. 

• your new crib. I didn't have a crib for Eliana (we didn't have room for one), so I debated buying one. But, I am so glad I did! You sleep in your crib for the first part of the night, then I put you in bed with me. 

•  that the musical mobile calmed you while I folded clothes.

• piles of clean baby clothes.

• how you move your legs like you are going somewhere.

Here's you being entertained by the mobile while I fold laundry (and take pictures).

• neatly folded stacks of cloth wipes.


• you!
