Picture of the Week

What a happy baby...usually!!

6 Weeks Old

If it weren't for the constant reminder of how tired I am all the time, it would be hard for me to believe that our MVP is 6 weeks old already. People still comment on how small he looks, but to me, he is growing like crazy. He's getting a double chin and he's also getting chubbier limbs. This is a picture of my two boys--just hangin' out.

When he first wakes up in the morning, MVP loves to stretch and smile. Sometimes he will yawn, stretch and then exhaust himself so that he goes back to sleep for a few minutes. This cycle can go on for up to two hours sometimes. At some point, he will remember that he's hungry and the fun and games will come to an abrupt end. Here's some video I took of him on February 26th. He's smiling a lot more now.

Something we have discovered is that he really loves his changing pad. When we put him on there, he smiles and is very well behaved--which is a relief because I would hate for diaper changes to be a traumatic experience. The funny thing is that he not only seems to enjoy his own diaper changing station, but we took him over to a friend's house last night and he was just as thrilled with their changing station! He must really appreciate a clean diaper!!
