Lately

I can't count the number of times I've sat down to try and write a post only to have Dane start crying and taking me away from my intended task. If fact, he sounds like he is about to wake up now... so I'll try to make this quick.

The last 5 weeks have been a blur - a sleepless, stressful blur. But wonderful too. Breastfeeding continues to be a work in progress, but Dane is gaining good weight which is the most important thing. At 4 1/2 weeks he weighed in at 7 lbs 6 oz. Here's a full body shot. The beautiful quilt he is laying on is a present from his favorite Aunt Elizabeth (Note: in this case, favorite describes Aunt Elizabeth and not aunt :) He has lots of favorite aunts).

Here is a short video of face shots from the last couple of weeks. Enjoy!

WOW!!! He can already roll over!! Ella still hasn't accomplished that feat! LOL How did you get him to do it?!? We try and try to get Ella to do it on her own, but to no avail.... haaha. Glad to hear he is gaining weight too, GOOD JOB MOM!! All the sacrifices are making a difference. I'm cheering you on!

How cute! It's remarkable to see the changes in him as each week passes. Hang in there, eventually it will get better. Love, love, love the last pix. It's so funny 'cause it's so true. You both ROCK!
