Six weeks old...

Sweet Allie Mae,

You are now over 6 weeks old.

Wow, we are so blessed with you in our lives.

Time is really going by fast but we are enjoying our precious days with you.

You are eating well.

Around 9 lbs, 10 oz at our last doctor visit.

50% for height and weight.

90% for head circumference.

Your stomach still gets really upset when you eat too much but we're trying to slow you down a bit so you can keep it down.

You are sleeping well.

Usually only 1 or 2 feedings during the night.

Sooo nice you are to your mama.

You love to sleep in just like we do!

And you are quite the snuggle bug.

And you are playing well.

You've started to interact with the world around you.

Batting at your toys on your play mat.

Looking around at everything.

And let's not forget your smile.

At one month we saw it for the first time.

It lifts our hearts and is the most beautiful thing in the world.

We love to see you happy.

And thriving.

We've had some firsts.

First time going out to eat.

(You slept through it.)

First baby play date.

(You slept through it.)

First trip to meet Melissa and Kendra down in S. Denver.

(You screamed all the way home.)

First trip to the grocery store.

(Not so good. Cleanup in aisle 5)

But all in all it's been a great 6 weeks.

It's fun to see your brother be sweet with you.

He loves to help put your pacifier back in when you spit it out.

It's fun to see your daddy want to hold you.

You always calm down when you get into his arms.

And for me it's fun to just to spend our days together.

I'm so thankful for you sweet girl.

I love you.

Mama
