my oh my

Hello Ava,
My how you are growing.
You are 6 weeks and 6 days. I Can't believe it. Some days it feels like you just arrived yesterday while other days it feels like you've always been in my life.

Your hair is starting to thin out....much to your mama's dismay.

You are starting to make a few "baby noises" It's nice to hear something other than your hunger screams.

You don't really follow toys let alone focus in on them but you do follow people and faces. You look at us intently when we are talking to you. You watch Drew as she dances around the house.

You seems to love being on your changing table. You smile and coo constantly.

You don't go to "bed" until about 10pm. I'm still trying to figure out the best way to put you down. You still seem to like to be swaddled and in your "positioner". So when I haven't washed your postitioner it is a challenge trying to get you to stay asleep.

I love every single second with you Ava. Every single one of them.

Tonight we went out to dinner with your Aunt Tina, Uncle Scott, your two cousins.. Addey and Koby, Drew and Daddy. Then we walked down 5th Avenue while we ate ice cream. You were mesmerized by all the lights. You just stared at all of them...so content. I love the reactions from people when they see a little baby....It's like they have never seen one before. It's fun to watch them oooh and aaahh over you.

You change so much every day Ava. I'm so glad that I am able to be at home and watch each and every change.

I love you Ava baby.

5 Weeks.

Today you are 5 weeks old.

You are so adorable.
You are awake most of the day now.
You have baby acne.
You smile at the mobile when I play the music.
You eat like a champ.
You weigh 9 lbs 10 oz, your cousin weighed 9 3 oz when she was 2 months (crazy)
You grew one inch and have "exceptional head control and neck strength" Doctor's words.
You like to fall asleep on your daddy's chest. This makes my heart melt.
I love you Ava Virginia.
