6 weeks old!

Huett's first pediatrician once told me,

"Parents beg for the first six weeks to be over

and they pray that the first 6 years won't end."

This is so true, however, I have to be honest, I am glad to be past the ridiculously sleepless nights that the first month with a newborn provide.

Today, Charlie is six weeks old!!

What a big boy! He is eating about 4 ounces of breastmilk every 3-4 hours. He has 2 tbsp of Rice cereal in his 4 ounce bottle each time to ease his reflux. My guess is that he probably weighs around 10 1/2 pounds. He is completely out of his newborn clothes and some of his 0-3 month clothes. He fits most of his 3-6 month clothes well...

He sleeps all night from 10:00-8:00. He wakes up once around 4:00 for a bottle and he goes right back to sleep. He is by far the best sleeper of my 3 sons. He sleeps in his own crib and I keep him swaddled up tight.

Big sneeze


Isn't he just handsome as can be? I love his chubby cheeks!



and that chubby little chin...so kissable. Look at his long earlobes...

He is just getting so big, so fast!! More fun to come!
