10 Weeks

So big!

Freddie you are in the double digits now! And things are starting to feel so much more manageable that I am considering getting a sibling for you one day. No promises, but maybe, just maybe I could do another 10 weeks of this. I think it has something a lot to do with your sleeping between 7-8 hours each night.

Making eyes at the light fixture

I walked with another new mama at the park this week. Her boy is a few days younger than you and only sleeps for 3-4 hours at a time. Not my baby, he's a superstar.

Looking for your thumb

He also spit up the entire time we walked. Not my baby, he's a superstar. Thankfully the only time you're spitting up is at your first feeding after your long sleep. I am sure it is because you gorge yourself after being without food for so long.

Still looking

She also talked about her reluctance to leave the house with her boy. Not your mama, she's a superstar.

Hello, you're 10 weeks old and you've been to 7 days of Jazz Fest, and made it from start to finish everyday and even smiled and cooed through the dash to the car during the thunderstorm, and then slept for almost 8 hours! SUPERSTARS we are. No doubt.


Is that it?

Not only are you a superstar, but you are so damn cute. We are always talking about how sad other parents must be because they don't have the cutest baby ever. I know what you're thinking...your parents are dorks, not superstars!

We love hearing you jabber away. You're getting more and more vocal each day and there have also been some laughs! You love that thumb of yours and have gotten loud smacking on it especially when you're tired.

Yep, found it.

You've also got a droopy eye when you're tired, just like me. My daddy still tells me he can tell when I'm tired because of that droopy eye.

We are having so much fun with you Freddie. I've got quite the summer planned for us. A summer for superstars.

You superstars are cracking me up!! I know what you mean about comparing to other moms and quietly thinking how much better your baby is. I think you and I are the competitive type!

What a cutie! We have a thumbsucker, and both of our girls get that droopy left eye, just like their daddy!

I love the picture of him with one eyebrow arched with his thumb in his mouth! What a superstar! Why don't you 2 superstars come to Birney today for Field Day?!

You need to enter him in some cutest baby contests - he'd win for sure!
