5 1/2 Weeks

Luke is almost 6 weeks old and growing so quickly. I thought for my personal record (and for anyone else that is interested=)) I would document the things that Luke is doing and a little about his personality.

-Luke is a pretty predictable baby, which I love! He is awake all morning, takes a nap from 12-4, eating in there once, and then goes back to sleep. He's usually pretty awake in the evenings and then goes to sleep about 9. I feed him one more time about 11 or 11:30pm, and then he sleeps until 3 or 4am and then again at about 7am. I can usually get him to go back to sleep until 8 or 9am.

-Luke loves his swing. We just had to invest in a new one, because our other one quit working. Our other kids never really liked to swing, but Luke does!

-Luke is a pretty light sleeper and will wake up to the smallest noise...not a good quality for the 3rd child.

-When Luke gets hungry he will wink one eye and open his mouth. We call him the hungry pirate. He eats every 2 hours on the dot during the day, and rarely sleeps though a feeding in the daytime.

-Luke likes to be swaddled at night in our special miracle blanket.

-Luke doesn't mind taking baths, but hates getting out and being cold.

-Luke for the most part is a very content baby. He, of course, likes to be held when he's awake and preferably by his mommy!

We love you Lukie Wukie!
