Here is Jack at 6 weeks old…
Jack is growing like it’s an Olympic sport and now weighs in at 7lbs, 14ozs. If you’re keeping track, he gained 13 ounces since last week! Yes, seriously. He’s eating as if he’s making up for lost time. We are so happy to see his cheeks filling out and his thighs getting more substantial. We like putting him in adorable, now well-fitting, newborn-sized pajamas and snapping his photo – over and over and over…
R actually said, while folding baby laundry tonight, “Oh, babe, his pjs are sooo cute. I love them”. Don’t let him deny it.
Last weekend we celebrated R’s birthday by throwing a Birthday/Meet Jack Party at R’s parents’ house…
We had a blast and Jack was sufficiently “oooh-ed and ahhh-ed” over, especially by Uncle Casey…
He liked it mostly slept through it in a bouncer…
When he did wake up, Aunt Molly, finally not having a cold, got to hold him and feed him a bottle. She LOVES babies and was totally smitten…
And his cousin, Savannah, wanted to “look at him and kiss his foot”…
Every Thursday afternoon when he gets done with work, Grandpa Jack comes over for a visit. Today, Jack-boy fell sound asleep on his activity mat, so Grandpa Jack had to get down on the floor to kiss him goodbye. How cute is this? Big Jack, Little Jack…
The best thing about Week 6 is that Jack is sleeping a little longer at night. We’ve managed to get some 3.5 hour stretches a few times. Yes! And I have been cleared to start exercising. Double yes!
Until next week, no more photos, please…
Goodnight. Zzzzzzzz……

Jack eats it up!! Can’t wait to meet the little man!!!
Does “Jack” need a haircut yet?
He is so cute. I like that he wore himself out on his activity mat and just started napping. Very efficient.
