7 weeks old!

Dear Noel,
Today you are 7 weeks old!! Unbelievable. I can't believe it's been almost 2 months already! It's incredible how much you've grown. You are amazing to have in my life. You're just the sweetest and greatest baby ever. I seriously believe that lol. You are still so alert and curious and your smiles light up my whole day. When I look at you and your big sister I know I've done something right in life.


I've started doing tummy time with you - lying you on your belly so that you will use your neck muscles to look up and hold your head up. It helps strengthen those muscles.  :)










You now hold your head up longer, you've been making cooing sounds more often ! :)  You give eye contact and you really seem to try to communicate with your daddy and I. You've been staying awake more often. And contently looking around the room - taking everything in I assume. :) You smile so often, it's just so precious!! And you laugh - but only in your sleep haha. I did get your first little social giggle on video the other day though! You seem to be ticklish like your daddy is!

I still wear you and I love it - so do you. I love having you close to me and with me at almost all times. I actually love to rub my cheeks on the top of your head because your hair is just so soft!! I know, what a strange mommy! You also love shower times so much that you like to just fall asleep. They must be so calming for you. :)

When you get upset... you don't often cry either. You just whine. Literally, you try to talk to me and tell me that you need something changed - you are hungry, need a diaper change, or a burp, or you're just tired of the swing and want to be held. It's the sweetest lol.

We're also still breastfeeding strong!! You don't nurse for as long anymore though. Like 5 - maybe 10 mins. You have big burps too LOL. But still nursing like a champ!!
You are now in 0-3 clothing - no more newborn for you!!  and I just had to get some size 2 diapers - even though I'm still finishing off the size 1's. You'll be in the size 2 in no time!!

I love you Noel, my little Christmas baby<3
