6 Weeks Already...
Our little boy has sure changed in the past six weeks as I am sure all of you with kids or have been close to babies know. To go from a little baby that is so fragile and not knowing a thing to being a little less fragile ;)! with eyes open and starting to follow things is quite an accomplishment. Jacob definitely knows mommy and daddy's voices and tends to follow the voice and/or looks for the voice when he hears them. He is also watching us as we move around. Of course, he still can't really see us when we are walking around, but he can at least tell it is us by our voice and that our figures are moving. He is already intrigued with the flashing/flickering lights of the tv. Let's hope we don't have a couch potato on our hands, although I am sure a couch potato once in a while will be good...
Jacob is beginning to get a little interested in toys, but isn't quite there in understanding the concept yet. He is definitely beginning to show his personality and looks like he will be following in his mom's footsteps at a young age. He really enjoys being entertained and active, which is why we are looking forward to him playing with toys and hopefully being able to entertain himself on occasion. This will all come with time.
The formula situation at this point seems to have worked itself out, but we still have a few days to really know for sure. He is definitely becoming a bigger eater as we are on the doorstep of giving him 4 ounces when he eats. 3 ounces every hour and 45 minutes just isn't cutting it anymore... So, we have been alternating between 3 and 4 ounces depending on how long we would like him to sleep. Yes, he is a pretty good sleeper and is difficult to wake up. It won't be long and mom and I, well mostly mom, will be able to sleep most of the night, if not all (well, okay 5-6 hours...).
We are definitely enjoying our little/getting no so little dude. You always hear "enjoy them as much as you can because they grow up so quickly..." It is really true as I/we can now relate. It is already somewhat difficult to remember how small he really was only six weeks ago. Good thing we took a lot of pictures, eh? LOL!!!
