Three Weeks Old

Three weeks old already and it seems like he's been around way longer!  I'm finally getting used to getting up randomly throughout the night even though I still hate it.  Somehow though, six hours of sleep isn't nearly as bad and I had imagined.  Next week we'll be taking our first family trip for the fourth.  I'm a little nervous how he's going to handle it since he really has no schedule.  

I'm hoping for steady sleeping and for him not to feed every two hours like the last couple of days during his growth spurt. 

• How old is Noah?: 3 Weeks
  
• Noah is how big?: 9lb
• Sleep: 3-4 hours during the night... sleeps most of the day with lots of feedings every couple of hours. Currently sleeping soundly after letting Mom have a total of 10 Hours of sleep last night! "hooray!"
• Milestones: A lot more awake time now in between sleep periods and he just likes to hang out and watch things.  Likes to move his limbs a lot and his legs are getting super strong!
• Baby "Win" of the Week:  Big time poop all over the wall. First thing in the morning. What you don't see in this picture is the runny poo all of the wall and down to the baseboards that I had to clean.  Bummer.

 

Gotta watch out for the farts, you never know whats gonna come out.  Noah 2 - M&D 0 

• What Mom misses: A schedule....and going to work!  Work is so much easier than taking care of a baby!
• Weigh Progress: Down to 131.  One more pound left.  Now just waiting a couple more weeks to start some Jillian.
• Best Moment of the Week:  A semi successful trip to Target.  Did some clothing shopping and a new pair of sandals.  All was well until Noah decided to get grumpy and we had to go home.  But all in all, not that bad.
• What I’m excited about/looking forward to: Some kind of schedule we can follow. Also the 4th!  I even have special outfits for the little man!

...and finally, a picture for the Aunties; Molly & Laura.  

Noah loves you and can't wait to see you!
