5 Weeks Already!

Here is our handsome little man - a whooping 5 weeks old! Can you believe it?? I hardly can - almost 6 weeks on Tuesday - whoa. Time does fly. This little outfit barely fit at all when he was a week old - now the pants are a little snug. Pretty soon he will be walking and talking - geesh! :)


I got to see and hold Austin the other day - oh my isn't he absolutely precious! He is so tiny - I don't remember Logan being that little, but he was close to it. Austin is a pound less but still - I can't remember holding L when he was fresh from the hospital.


Sweet face - he is too adorable. Austin slept the whole time we were there - what a good boy! Can't wait to see him again and for Logan and him to meet - My bestie Irene got them matching onesies and we need to make a date and take their pics. :)


We have been practicing with tummy time and so far L likes it a lot. He stayed on his mat for 10 minutes or so. And we did the playtime mat for 15 minutes - he wore himself out!


Logan building those neck muscles




Here he is tuckered out from all the fun activities - whew! Playing is hard work ;)


He also likes his bumbo seat - he is too little right now, we have a pillow supporting his head - though he can hold it up some of the time. But he liked it for a minute or two. He loves to be in the upright sitting position seeing everything so we know this will soon become his best friend.


Soph checking on baby brother to make sure he is okay. (and trying to lick his toes)

Precious baby face - can't wait to see his first smile!!

We are surviving at the Gould household. It is getting better - he slept from 10:30 pm until 5 am last night! I, of course, didn't sleep well because I was up checking on him the whole night since he barely made a peep. He is typically a very noisy sleeper - constantly grunting, moving his arms, and making noises. But he slept sound asleep - I think the humidifier made a huge difference. He gets congested sometimes at night and he seemed better this morning. Let's hope he repeats this great sleep tonight! I am giving him a bath, reading a book, then hopefully he will be so tired he will pass out for 4-5 hours maybe longer.
New development: He was fussy this afternoon, he cried during feeding and we didn't know what to do! He never cries just to cry and especially while eating. He did have some gas and burps that finally came out - but then he seemed restless. We walked around with him and I put him on his tummy time mat where he finally calmed down. I know this is very normal for babies but Logan has never cried unless he is hungry or needs to be changed so we thought this was strange. I think he might be getting older and more alert and he will probably start doing more normal baby behavior such as crying, etc. We'll see! We have been so spoiled by our laid back baby that we looked at each other like "what on earth do we do!?" haha
Happy Friday Everyone!
