Anna is 6 weeks old!

What’s new with Anna in the last week?

- She smiles.  A lot.  We can make her smile.  That’s REALLY cool.  And sometimes I can make her laugh too.

- She loosely weighs 12.2 lbs.  She’s growing like a weed!  (Anna, please slow down, as we have approximately 160 Size 1 diapers left that we were unable to return to the store.)

- She sleeps about a 6 – 7 hour stretch at night – I feel like I can admit that now as it’s been consistent for about a two weeks now.  The other night I put her down at midnight and she slept until 6 AM and that was pure heaven right there.

- She has developed some baby acne ish something or other after her last bath – maybe I need to use a different soap or no soap or lotion, who knows.  We’ll figure it out.  We already use “free” laundry detergent and she doesn’t seem bothered by it at all.

- She still loves mama best but daddy is growing on her.  She also REALLY likes Kevin in our church small group – I think his voice is like that of angels for how quick she is to calm down when he holds her.

A few pictures – “why, yes, mom, I will pose for you!”  (Last time until she is an adult – ha!)
