Life as We Know it

We have the cutest little baby boy. And he is sure the greatest baby. He 's not a cranky fussy baby, he's been sleeping through the night since he was just a few weeks old, He sleeps great during the day, he's generally happy, he smiles so well in his sleep, he's so great at holding his head up, he's got the strongest little legs, he can scoot all over the place, he recognizes so many things already. He's such a smart baby! I'm so happy that I get to be his mommy and take care of him everyday.

Chris is so in love with little Brenden. Its very cute. Not so cute when Brenden cries for almost an hour after his daddy scares him. Chris doesn't quite realize that he's still a little teeny tiny baby. He plays with him like he would a 2 year-old. Hopefully he starts to understand soon, mostly because he decides to scare him right before he has to leave for school or work and then I am stuck with this upset baby that cries for 20 minutes.

A little about our growing little boy. He's about 21 1/2 inches long and is still under 8 lbs. at 5 1/2 weeks. Its hard to believe that he'll be 6 weeks old this Thursday. Let's see, he's still in all of his newborn clothes. He's long, but hasn't put on any chub yet, we're still waiting. His feet are getting pretty big. His feet are about as long as my index finger, BIG FEET! He's got some awesome coordination. He's already to scoot across rooms, he can hold his head up on his own, he's got some great control over his hands, and he can focus on objects abotu 3-4 feet away. His favorite thing to focus on is our picture of Christ.

I just can't get over how amazing his development is!

  1. Not to keep dragging the Larsen family part in, but those long skinny feet are a Larsen trait. Dreygan has them, too. :)
