7 Weeks

Filed Under: Family Tagged With: carsyn, milestone

I still can’t believe it has been 7 weeks already. Where does the time go?

Carsyn is:
 
  • Smiling a lot, especially when he hears Dustyn or when you talk to him
  • Sleeping at least 7-9 hours straight at night, then sleeps for another 3-4 hours
  • Taking a couple of cat naps in the morning and then usually a 2-3 hour nap in the afternoon
  • Hating tummy time (just like Dustyn did)
  • Still hating the car seat
  • Loving been worn in any of the baby carriers we have
Yesterday I left him for the first time while he was awake. I have only left him one other time and it was for like 30 minutes and he slept. Yesterday I left him for 4 hours!! Kenny watched both the boys while I went to my 6 week postpartum check up. He took the bottle good for Kenny. I did worry about him the whole time I was gone, but it was nice to get out with no kids.

After my doctors appointment I went to Walmart ALL BY MYSELF! Which was awesome. I do not like grocery shopping, but it was nice to be able to take some me time.

    I wonder what it would be like to have a baby sleep that long at night! My son NEVER slept that long at night until he was 9-10 months old! Is Carsyn in a crib in another room or what? I really hope my next baby sleeps better at night. I was a wreck the first 6 months, never getting more than 3-4 hours sleep at a stretch.

    Sounds like you guys are adjusting well to being a family of 4. :-)

This is the lowest weight I have been since I got pregnant with Dustyn and he will be 18 in February. 😳Feeling amazing, so thankful for how far I have come, but would like to lose about 20 more and tone up.

Plus, he researched for hours how to do ceramic coating so now the paint is protected and it should be easier to keep clean. The photo does not do it justice. It’s super slick and shiny.
