Abigail is 7 wks old now and growing like a weed. She has changed so much. She's getting in a routine and on a good schedule now. She sleeps 5-6hrs during the night, only getting up once...which is good for us :) She notices our voices of course and recognizes us from different people when she sees us. When she is sleepy, she has started rubbing her eyes with her little hands, which is so precious! She holds her head up but she has done that since the first day in the hospital...she has only gotten stronger with it. She started smiling at about 5 1/2 weeks. Its so fun to watch her. She enjoys tummy time...being on her tummy makes her really happy. I won't let her sleep like that unless its during nap time and she is right beside me. I just don't trust it. I am waiting until she can roll over, which is what the dr advises. Some ppl go ahead with tummy sleeping this early, but I just can't bring myself to do it in her crib during the night. Jarrett is doing well with night shift. It took him a while to be able to wake up without me yelling in his ear or pushing him, ha. I can laugh now that we are past it. In all honestly it drove me crazy for a while. He has been able to bond with her more that we got her tummy troubles fixed and with her smiling and recognizing us. He can enjoy her more. There for a while I think he thought a baby was supposed to just cry and all the time and never sleep, ha. (of course when they don't feel good:)) Me...I'm dreading going back to work and not spending as much time with her everyday. I suppose all new mothers go through this. Just by the time I think I'm getting the hang of things...I have to leave her for work. yuck! Life...what ya gonna do!?! I think thats about it on the updates...in general anyway. Enjoy the pic of Abigail and her aunt Shawna...this was 6.5 wks.
