Baby Nash is 6 Weeks Old

6 weeks

Munchkin you made it! You are considered full term!

You grow everyday and more clothes go in the tubs that do not fit anymore

You celebrated your first Christmas with us and we will never forget it.

Now we move onto the New Year and our little family is so blessed.

2010 was the year of a miracle for us lets see what 2011 brings

Sleep: You have done so great this week. As you get older the better sleeper you are becoming. Our nights now have a constant schedule. You get a bath around 7:30 every night and then you stay up until about 9. Then you sleep until 10:30 - 11 and I feed you. After that you sleep until 3:45 am! Way to go Nasherson. Your Dad feeds you at this time and then he puts you back in your bed and you will sleep until 7:30am. It is so nice to have a routine sort of. One funny thing about you sleeping is if anyone is holding you and they move a muscle you will give them a goat noise. It is really funny. We know when someone has moved when they are holding you.

Feed: You still love your food. You have been eating more and more and I am trying to keep up with you. Your Dad still does the middle of the night feeding and you eat so well for him. Sometimes you hate to burp, which in affect has you spit up all over the place. I am not a big fan of this spit up phase and I hope you are getting enough to eat because seriously you spit up a lot. We go through so many burp cloths and clothes because you are constantly spitting up on them. While I am burping you, you will push your feet against me and push your tummy off of me and try to make your butt stand up straight up in the air.

Weight: 8 lbs 14.5 oz....20% The doctor is very happy with your progress. It is funny how different your little body looks as you gain weight. I love to see the little rolls grow

Length:20 1/2 inches....15% Your little legs are short and are bowed just like your Dad's legs. You have his body! Your head is 14 1/2 which is 9% so right now you have a little head just like your Momma.

Milestone: You had many firsts this week.

• You smiled! But only once and it was so amazing for me. We were sitting in your room singing and rocking in the chair and you looked at me and just gave me a huge grin. Now if I could get you to do it again...that would be wonderful
  
• We read our first books this week. Goodnight San Diego, Hola Jalepeno, The Christmas Story, The ABC Bible Versus and many other ones.
• You had your first Christmas. This was amazing and you mainly slept the whole time. Santa brought you an activity jumper. I think your Dad's favorite gift you got was the train that goes around the Christmas tree.
  
  
• You went to church for the first time for Christmas Eve service
• You went to see Santa for the first time. You slept for most of the time but we did get a picture with him.
  
  
• You met Annika and Brayden Schroder for the first time. I hope you are close to them as close as I am to their Mom, Dianna.

Funniest Moment this Week: While we were opening gifts at Noni and Gramps house you decided to give everyone a touchdown sign. It was so funny. You stayed in that position for about 3o minutes.

Your favorite toy: You got several new toys for Christmas. Right now I think you are loving your books and rattles that you have gotten. You like to spend time on your activity mat and love to look at yourself in the mirror when you are having tummy time. You love love love bath time. Which makes your Mommy so happy

Diapers: We tried size one diapers this week however they are still a little too big. So we will finish with the NB diapers and then by then hopefully you will be ready for size one.

Mommy Moments: The holidays were amazing with you around. Having you here brought a whole new meaning to Christmas for your Dad and I. We just love the miracle that God gave us with you! Every time I look at you I can not believe that you are mine. It is so fun having you part of our family.
