6 Weeks- Collyn

6 weeks have passed. WOW! Collyn is growing into a wonderful little boy. He has his own little personality now, and I just can't get enough of him. Here are some updates.

GROWTH: I have not weighed him for 2 weeks (Since 1 month old). I usually weigh him at my parents house, but I haven't done that for a while, so I don't know how much he weighs. He has a 2 month doctors appointment in a couple weeks so I will have his weight and height at his 2 month update!

EATING: I am still exclusively nursing. We attempted a little formula last week. Lyndon was watching him and he already drank what I had pumped and I wasn't home yet. He spit it all back up. He refuses formula, so it is completely up to me. He eats every 2-3 hours for about 15 minutes at a time, only one side each feeding. Sometimes I have to feed him on both sides, but rarely.

CLOTHING: 0-3 Month. He still fits into some Newborns.

DIAPERS: Size 1

SLEEP: It is not getting much better. There was one night he gave me a 6 hour stretch and I thought things were looking up, and the next night he was up 5 times. He usually goes to bed about 9 or 10, wakes up at 1, wakes up at 3, and wakes up at 6:30. He has been awake more lately during the day. He takes a good long nap during the morning from 10 AM to 1 PM. Then, sleeps again in the afternoon and will take an evening nap also. I swear all this kid does is sleep.... except at night. :)

DEVELOPMENT: He is SMILING!!!! YEAH! It makes me feel so good when I can talk to him and he will smile back at me. He is also cooing. He will now talk to his toys and when he eats he will sometimes makes noises.

ACTIVITIES: Collyn took a train ride with his cousins, he has spent his Friday evenings at football games for the high school. He went to the first week of dance with Momma. He went to a wedding for a girl Momma used to work with. He helped Momma do some photoshoots for people who needed pictures.
