7 weeks


Siena is 7 weeks old!  She is now "tracking" with her eyes when people move around the room.  She like to push off of our stomachs with her very strong legs.  She can even stand (assisted of course), but she doesn't flop over like spaghetti right away.  She has much better control of her head and enjoys getting a view better than the ceiling.  We have started to give her a pacifier (when she will keep it in) to help with her constant needing to nurse.  She still projectile vomits when she over eats.  She is pretty much sleeping though the night, only waking once to nurse but I have her in bed with us so we all sleep through it.  Thank goodness she will nurse in bed, otherwise I might be a walking zombie in the mornings.  Cole is doing less hitting and more hugging and kissing so she seems to appreciate the change of heart.  I guess he decided I am a better target.  I give better reactions.  She has grown out of her newborn diapers and is on to size ones.  We still use cloth the majority of the time but when out and about we use disposables for the sake of not collecting tons of poopy diapers and leaving them in the car to fumigate.  She is also starting to coo and smiling is occurring more than just with gas.
