andie ~ six weeks.

Here is our little miss at 6 weeks old.
She has changed so much it is amazing.  She is definitely plumping up! :)  Our little chunk, even though she is still a tiny thing.
At 6 weeks old... Andie is in size one diapers and now switching to size 0-3 month clothes.  She is smiling at us more each week.  She has definitely found her voice!  Yes, this extremely calm and quiet baby isn't oh so quiet anymore.  She is still a very good and happy baby, but now she is far more vocal and needy than her sister was at this age.
      Andie is picky about where she is, and by this I mean she really would be totally happy if she could be held all day long. :)  We get tiny little moments in a swing or bouncer, but they do not last long.  Otherwise, she loves to stretch out on her play mat.  She knows how to get our attention and tell us what she really wants. :)  If she is awake you can pretty much guarantee she is in our arms.  So, in other words our house is not quite up to par and completely taken over by two little girls.  The moments I have without a little one in my arms are left to the necessities for myself - bathroom, shower, eating - haha that's about all that can be squeezed in.  Thank goodness it's summer, otherwise our house would be a total pit!  Todd and I take turns getting in a little cleaning (or at least straightening up).
      Sleep is something that has stayed very consistent with little miss Andie since she came home from the hospital.  She is pretty much down for the night about 8-8:30 and she is in a deep sleep.  She wakes about 2am and then again at 6am and then 8am.  Nighttime has been extremely calm.  If we are sleep deprived it's because of our 3 year old (more on her in a special big sister post coming up).
      This six week mark is making this mama a little sad - moving out of newborn clothes, diapers, most likely moving into her bedroom soon.  It goes so quickly.  Thank goodness we are truly soaking up every second, and for that I am grateful for a messy house - we know we are doing things right. :)
