6 weeks...

 I can't believe 6 weeks have already gone by.
They've been the most incredible weeks of my life.
He's smiling and laughing and I swear, he sometimes sounds like he's chirping.
His favorite album: Kenny Loggins, Return to Pooh Corner
His favorite toy: Ellie the elephant
His favorite outfits: "Brannan's favorites" from baby Gap

It's taken me awhile to get used to the sleeping schedule, but I've learned to nap a bit during the day.  I've lost 35 pounds already, thank you breast feeding, and have about 17 left.  We love to bundle up, take walks around the neighborhood with the dog and gaze quietly up at the bright leaves on the trees.  We're starting mommy + me yoga soon and are considering a music class.

I think it's amazing what happens once you have a child of your own.  You finally start to appreciate everything your parents did for you and if you're really lucky, what they continue to do for you and your son.  We have an incredibly loving family and I am so thankful for that.

Wishing you a very happy weekend.
xoxo,
us

What a darling boy. He looks so much more mature than his 6 weeks which I suppose is because I can't get over how alert he looks.

Isn't it remarkable that it takes having your own child to fully appreciate everything your parents have done for you? I thought I did before but I had no idea.

Enjoy, enjoy, enjoy that handsome little fella!

what a sweet face. I cannot wait to meet him. I know exactly the feelings that you are describing. isn't it remarkable? I highly recommend the music class when he is a little older. Lucia LOVES it. Granted she falls asleep half way through almost every week but she loves the instruments and the guitar and her hippie teacher and being around the other babies. we need a playdate soon. when?? xx
