8 Weeks

How Old? 8 Weeks
Weight? 9lbs 6oz when we were discharged from the hospital at 6 weeks!
Clothing? She has outgrown most of her newborn clothes and fits very well into a 0-3 months. I have washed all of her 3 month outfits and some of them fit very well while others are still too big. It just depends on the brand. She is in a size 1 diaper.
Sleep? We have had one night where she has slept 8 hours straight. Most of the time her schedule is as follows: Wakes up between 6:30 and 7:00 in the morning. Pretty much the same time as Daniel. She takes a couple of little naps in the morning and then sleeps for about 2-3 hours in the afternoon. She then takes another little nap around dinner time. Around 8:30, I feed her and put her to bed. She is up between 1:30 and 2:30 and then again around 5:00 to eat.
Best moment this week? Being healthy! I am so glad we are all feeling well and will hopefully stay that way!
Sounds? She is taking and making lots of baby babble now.
Eating? She is eating every 2-3 hours except for her 5-6 hour stretch at night.
What I am looking forward to? We had pictures made and I can't wait to get the CD of the pictures back next week!
Milestones?  Your baby's physical development includes holding things in his hands at this point. Stick a rattle in his palm and watch his little fingers close around it. Don't try this with your cell phone or something you really need because baby probably won't let go as easily as he latched on. Get ready 'cause your baby is about to discover the coolest toy ... and it's totally free and always within reach! His hands! They're close by, always there and have a cute pudgy shape. Watch him gaze at them in endless fascination ... and wonder why you spent all that cash on those baby DVDs with all of the classical music and dancing toys. A great way to keep your baby engaged and help him start learning about his world and the people in it is to be a one-person entertainment center. Try out some hand games like Itsy Bitsy Spider, Pat-a-Cake or This Little Piggy. Your baby's infant vision is improving and he is starting to distinguish colors more now, so surround him with complex designs and bright, colorful objects—a red plush monster, a yellow shape sorter, Mommy's lime green track pants—to grab her attention.
