Hey everybody! I'm eight weeks old today, which means I'm almost two whole months old! It's really fun being eight weeks. Let me tell you all about it!
• Mommy says I'm full of joy and smile with my whole face. I raise my eyebrows, wrinkle up my nose, and grin really big. I think my smiles make her really happy, which makes me happy. In fact, sometimes I smile for no reason. I'm just happy to be here guys...
• It seems people are having a hard time believing I'm only eight weeks. Someone guessed that I was seven months old. Now, I get that I'm a bit chunky and tall for my age but SEVEN months?!
• I'm really starting to talk and coo more - it's nice to finally have a voice around here.
• Mommy is telling everyone how sweet of a baby I am. Of course, I won't disagree with her. She says I'm calm and content and love to just look around, I am a rock star eater, and to top it all off - I have been consistently sleeping between 4-5 hours the first stretch at night! I make it pretty obvious when I'm tired (even have started rubbing my eyes) and after a bit of jiggling, off I go to sleepy land. Take a look at this track record...
June 17th - 4 hours
June 18th - 5 hours and 10 minutes
June 19th - 4 hours and 50 minutes
June 20th - 4 hours
June 21st - 4 hours and 25 minutes
June 22nd - 4 hours and 30 minutes
I'm going down anywhere between 9:30 and 11:30, but mommy says 10:30 is preferable. (Sheesh...picky, picky!)
• Back to how sweet I am though...it's very true. Mommy and daddy are always saying "I can't believe he's just sitting there" or "I can't believe he falls asleep so easily" or this and that. I appreciate the compliments and I'll try to keep up the good work.
• The days of my 0-3 month onesies have come to an end.
• My hair is already coming back in and mommy says my peach fuzz is super soft! She's always kissing my head. And face. And tummy.
• I actually really like baths for the most part. They're very relaxing if my parents can time them right.
• Sissy goes to daycare one day a week so I get to stay home with mommy. She's back to work with her photography business so we snuggle and she works while I sleep.
• The weather's been a bit iffy around here lately. We survived two nights without power (came back on both times thankfully) and lots of loud thunder. I wasn't scared though and slept through it all.
• I've been getting lots of mail! I think I could get used to getting presents. Cards, clothes, blankets, DVDs to share with my sissy, ISU gear, gift cards, and even a beautiful engraved frame. I am well loved!
• I took my first bottle like a champ this past week! Daddy loved giving it to me and mommy says she feels free!
Well, hope you all enjoyed your weekend. Thanks for swinging by!
Oh, and don't worry...I decided to wake up...
Love,
Conrad Cross
