6 Weeks Old

Amazingly, Katelyn is almost 7 weeks old now... She turned 6 Weeks last Sunday and is continuing to grow (11 pounds, 23 inches long), teaching her mom and dad a little about flying poo, spit up clean up, and endurance w/out sleep. She is also developing her own little skills along the way! We of course think she is the best thing since sliced bread, but may be just slightly biased. ;-) It has been awhile since our last update, so here are a few of my fav pics. Hope you all enjoy!



Katelyn around 4 weeks old - ALL CLEAN!!! Amazingly she is starting to like bath time already as long as you keep that warm water running over her!


Katelyn and Dad around 5 weeks old.


Katelyn around 5 weeks old - Just chillin' in her jammies... Does this look comfy to you? :)


While at G&G A's over Thanksgiving, Katelyn discovered Mom's old pound puppies. In this picture, the puppy is "attacking" her! She is making one of her many faces - this one is Mom's favorite... She makes it when she is stretching!


On our way home from Thanksgiving, we stopped to visit Great Grandpa N!


We also swung by Great Grandma and Grandpa S's place. She succeeded in bringing a smile to everyone's face!


Since newborn's eyesight isn't fully developed at birth, they often like contrasting colors like black and white. Katelyn is no exception and loved the black & white wallpaper in her nursery. Dad thought it would be fun to make a "toy" for her and bought some black and white fabric which Mom hot glued onto this poster board. It was cheap, is portable, and she LOVES it!


I can't believe I am posting this, but this is now what we know as our living room! Anyone wanting to come and visit - you are more than welcome... Just be prepared and watch your step!


Here she is sleeping peacefully a couple weeks ago... I'd like to point out the pacifier in the upper right corner. It is the only one she will take (Avent, came with the bottle starter kit!). This is great for our pinkies which got wrinkled when she needed to comfort suck, however it is CLEAR! Not the best design for sleepy parents who wander around at night looking for the thing... We recently ordered some with color!


Here is Katelyn in her Santa hat from Aunt Dana. Looks like she likes it! (Yeah, it took a few snaps to get that grin...)


...and here is Katelyn with Santa. Happy Holidays and Best Wishes for 2008!
