All About Ryan - 6 weeks

He sleeps for about 10 hours per night.  His first stretch has recently been 7-8.5 hours (don't be hating) followed by another 2-3 hour stretch.  It is amazingly.  Since Mike didn't really sleep through the night until he was 8 months old I did not expect this at all.

Has the CUTEST eyebrow dimple.  It makes him look like he is thinking really hard about things.

It gaining most of his weight in his cheeks and thighs...I love it.  At his six week appointment yesterday he weighed 12 pounds 4.5 ounces (he gained 3 pounds in 4 weeks).

He loves starting at paintings, particularly the one over our couch that my sister did and a starry night print over our bed.  I think he can focus on the colors.

He still needs to be swaddled to sleep at night (Mike only tolerated swaddling for week so this is new territory for us) during the day he can go either way.

He still doesn't cry much, but will give a warning yell if we aren't giving him enough attention.  He will scream bloody murder if he gets too hungry or cold.  For the most part he is a sweet, calm baby.

He has just started cooing and smiling.  Mike elicits the most smiles (no big surprise there) but he is sure to give everyone a little love.
