6 Weeks Old

We've had some fun milestones the last couple of weeks! Lily is sure keeping us on our toes, and we're havin a blast.



- Depending on the time of day, miss Lily will smile on demand! She has the biggest, cutest smile. I have yet to get a picture of her largest grin, but will keep trying.

- She is trying to laugh already. Today while she was grinning at me, she started making a "heh" sound, that was so close to a little chuckle. Can't wait to get a real chuckle out of her!

- The pesky "45 Minute Intruder" has arrived. I guess this visitor shows up between 6 and 7 weeks, and your baby suddenly goes from their regular nap times to waking up about 45 minutes in. Lily was taking consistant 1.5 - 2 hour naps, then she started waking up every 45 minutes this week. Hopefully it will pass soon!

- She is taking the first steps toward rolling over. While on her stomach she will arch her back and roll onto her side. When she's on her side she will kick her leg over and roll back. I'm sure it will take some more time before she's strong enough to actually roll over, but she's getting there.

- She can do the "mini push-up." When laying on her stomach she will push-up onto her forearms and lift her head up to look around. She can't do it for very long, but it's fun to watch!

Well, my naptime window of freedom is coming to an end, lol. Better get goin before Miss Lily wakes up!
