5 Weeks Old.....

It's so hard to believe that our little guy joined our family 5 weeks ago yesterday! I knew that time would go fast but this is CRAZY!! He is still sleeping quite a bit but it seems he is spending more and more time awake as the days go by. He is really good at rolling from his side to his back but then he can't get back to his side! It's so fun to talk to him because he looks for our voice and his eyes follow things that we move back and forth. He is really good at making faces and rolling his eyes! I call him my little piglet - by about 3 weeks he was eating 5 ounces at most feedings and he is a good grunter!

We lucked out with a pretty good, happy baby. For the most part he only cries when he needs something - diaper change, some food, or get a bubble out of his tummy! He is starting to figure out that he likes to be held and if he cries he'll get it!

As far as night time goes, he has good nights and bad nights but luckily for us there are more of the good than the bad! He usually gets up between 1 and 2 and again between 4 and 6 for a diaper change and a feeding. He usually gets up a couple of times in between those times because he lost his pacifier. He is a little bit of a thumb sucker during the day but for some reason at night he can't find that either!
