i am just over 5 weeks old now and i am a growing boy. i am already in size 3 diapers (my brother is in size 6). i started to smile when i was three weeks and now it is not terribly difficult to coax a smile out of me. at three weeks is also when i first started to hold my head up a little on my own. now my head is not nearly so floppy, but it is still hard to lift it when i am on my tummy.
my brother is really cool. every time i hear him talk i stop and look at him quietly. he captivates me.
mommy and daddy think i am very noise since i grunt, groan, squeak, snort, squeal, and oh yeah fart. in fact i have a nightly routine of farting as soon as i am put into bed for the night. these are not 5 week old farts either, they should like they could come from mommy or daddy. they make mommy and daddy laugh really hard because they think farts are funny. maybe when i get older i will think so too.
i do not cry much, only when mommy or daddy aren't meeting my immediate need in a time frame that i find suitable.
since i came home from the hospital i have been sleeping through the night for the most part. that lets daddy and especially mommy get decent sleep most nights.
i have not yet laughed while i am awake, but both mommy and daddy have heard me laugh in my sleep.
here are a couple of recent pictures of me.
