Week 5.5

So Gavyn is somewhere between 5 and 6 weeks old now and growing up so fast- like a bad weed, as Dad would say…

Jared is getting into the swing of his new job with a few bumps, but nothing inexcusable. I think he is enjoying the occasional change in scenery. It's nice to say, "Have a good day at work, honey." and actually send him out the door.

I'm feeling more and more that I'm understanding what the little one needs and everything seems to be smooth sailing. Well… except when Gavyn is gassy. Saturday night was a rough one. We would get him asleep and just as we would go to put him in his bassinet, he would shriek and start the whole process again. Poor little guy.

And we're moving at the end of the week! It is just across the parking lot, but we're growing up and into a 2 bedroom at last. Wish us luck!

Look What I Can Do!

Here is a video of Gavyn's new-found independence. Sorry for the annoying commentary...

One month!

Little baby Gavyn is four weeks old today!

So far, this is what he can do:

eat

sleep

pass gas while eating (it really is a milestone.)

poop

pee

cry

kick

punch

roll to his side (although this may just be chance- he's only done it a couple of times...)

sometimes he looks in our eyes

and he can pick up his head.

It's the little things, right?
