6 1/2 Weeks Old

We're smiling now!


Hard to believe Faith is 6 1/2 weeks old now. We had her weighed at the doc's office on Thursday and she was 11 lbs 4 oz, over 3 pounds heavier than when she left the hospital and she's grown 3/4 of an inch! She's a good eater!


Faith was recently visited by her godfather Greg Stai. She really liked Greg's sense of humor and has seen pictures of his son Chase who is 11 months old - he's a cutie! She can't wait to meet him. Faith will be baptized on May 2nd.



Having fun with Dad.



Just chillin.

Sleepy time. Please don't wake me!


Tummy time with big brother Oscar.



Faith is really growing in other ways too. She finally likes some floor time without fussing. She's watching the lights and listening to the songs of her toy.

And she does some bouncy chair time too. Here she's on the bathroom counter watching Mom get ready for the day.

I call her our little jungle girl sometimes. She likes to nap in the swing, on the highest speed, with the noise maker on sounds of birds in the rainforest. Life is like one big carnival ride for Faith. When she isn't swinging to the jungle noises, bouncing in her chair, rocking, going for car rides, or watching the flashing lights of her toy we sit and bounce her on our big exercise ball. Apparently that is calming. She also really likes the noise maker on the loudest volume and the sound of the vaccuum cleaner. Overstimulated??? Nope, not this girl.

  1. So fun to see pictures of Faith. She is such a cutie! I can't wait to meet her. I hope you are enjoying being a mom (and wow does she look like you) and still managing to get some sleep. :)
