Life as I know it...

Everything has changed, its different, there is no going back & I wouldn't have it any other way. Our home & family are so upside down & totally complete all at once. I can't imagine being any happier, or sleepier! Logan is growing & changing so quickly it makes me sad! He is 7 weeks today! Where did the time go!? He weighed 9lbs at his last appointment & is still a great eater! He sleeps well at night, but is still eating every 3 hours or so. This last weel he has become so much more alert, he thinks he's a big boy! He wants to be sitting up looking out, not snuggled into momma anymore. He is starting to notice lights & toys & people so much more.

After a few hard fussy evenings I realized that my little boy was asking me to put him to bed! After weeks of him being in the livingroom with is until we went to bed he just couldn't take the stimulation. He was crying and nursing, but getting frusturated because he didn't want it. Poor little man. For the past 3 nights we have done bath or shower, story, feed, & then rocking with the sound machine on. Each night the rocking has taken less & less time. He sleeps in his crib until his first feeding & then he is in bed with us, however that is more for my convenience. I am too lazy to walk to the other room! Once he drops one of those night feedings we will see about putting him in his room for the night. Thank God for the angel care monitor-its the only way I feel OK about this!

Last Sunday we took L to church for the first time! Look at how sweet he looked all dressed up in his Sunday best! What a little man!
Here is L's 5 week photo...he is already so much bigger!!
Here he is at 6 weeks, doesn't he look more grown up! Its a little bittersweeet, I am trying so hard to savour each moment! He is jsut starting to smirk in this photo but I have gotten a few great smiles from him this week!
