You know it's bad when...

the thought of sleeping 6 hours straight seems like a foreign concept! Well, little Nathan is 5 1/2 weeks old and weighs in at over 10 pounds! He is getting much stronger and stays awake at longer intervals, giving us a chance to see little glimpses of his personality ~ PLUS we get to play with some pretty cool toys! He holds his head up much steadier now than before and can keep his gaze focused on whatever is interesting to him at the moment. It's amazing to see the changes in him, even in such a short amount of time. Most of all, Nathaniel steals my heart every time he starts cooing - he opens his eyes wide and makes the most adorable sounds! He talks mostly in the mornings ~ a trait he did NOT inherit from me! I think he did get my love of music ~ he listens to Baby Einstein every day and seems to enjoy it alot! The picture shows him on the Baby Einstein playmat watching the star light up and play music. As he was laying there, he kept kicking his legs out; he looked like a frog! We'll work on his dance moves later...
