6 Weeks!

Molly Grace, you are 6 weeks old today! I can hardly believe it!

When we were trying so hard to get pregnant, time would drag by! Now that you're here and we want to savor every moment, time is flying by!

It's so funny to think that you still shouldn't even be born for 2 more days! You are doing so well and are right on track for all your developmental milestones according to your actual age - not even your adjusted age! That's awesome!

You are able to hold your head up for several seconds at a time now! When you're on your stomach or laying on our shoulders, you will lift your head up and look at us!

You are grabbing at things more and more. Today for the first time you grabbed one of the toys hanging on your playmat! You really love to hold onto Daddy's fingers while you sleep on his lap (and I think he likes it even more!).

You are learning to use your 'voice' (and your lungs!). You've definitely found your cry. You don't cry often, but when you do, you mean business! ha! You still do a LOT of grunting. Our bedroom sounds like a barnyard at night!

You love to sit upright and look around. If you are awake, you don't want to be laying down. It's so funny how you open and close your mouth and stick your tongue out while we're talking to you! It's like you're trying to talk back!

I'm still at home with you - and loving every minute! I wouldn't trade this time with you for anything in the world!

Happy 6 weeks, Molly Grace!
