Little Miss Six Week Old...

Hannah was six weeks old last Wednesday.

I seriously think that with every child I have had, the time during the first few months flies by more quickly.

And, as a six week birthday gift from Hannah to us, she gave us 6 hours of uninterrupted sleep.

Since then, she has increased her blessing of sleep to us. Most nights I can nurse between 10:30 and 11:30 and she won't wake up until sometime between 6:30 and 7:30. On Sunday, we had to wake her up at 8:00 so that we would get to church on time.

I whispered in her ear that morning that she was my "favorite" child.

Don't worry....I DO NOT have favorites...

but for that short moment she was!

She is simply a delight! She smiles all the time. She only cries when she is hungry, has a wet or dirty diaper, wants a new position, or is tired. She's a very easy baby to read.


She hates being held in the cradle position, except to nurse. She prefers to be upright so she can hold up her head and push up with her feet. She LOVES her daddy, big brother and big sister and loves all the activity in our home. She continually delights the "grandmas" in the nursery and they continually fight over her and tell me of how she smiles and smiles at them.

She is such a joy, and loves to cuddle with mommy and daddy. She is also our first "spit-upy" baby, so we both have several outfit changes per day.


But she is definitely worth it.

Oh, and, have I mentioned she LOVES to smile?
