This one is of Wyatt eating. He likes to throw his arms up over his head and the noises he makes are just great!:
A Shout-Out from Wyatt
Can you believe it? I'm 8 weeks old! Things are going well. We had a good Thanksgiving at Gigi and Pop-pop's. Daddy says I got passed around like an appetizer platter. Apparently I'm quite a big deal. Picture of me (I'm the littelist one) with all the other kids below. On the home front we have finally developed a bit of a routine, if you want to call it that... basically we just do whatever makes me happy, which is napping when I'm tired and eating when I'm hungry. I enjoy the evenings the most and when Daddy gets home from work. I love smiling at Daddy! Mommy actually caught a picture of it the other night (below). I also really enjoy watching things move, like my mobile in the crib and the ceiling fans, I just stare in awe. I would like to give a baby shout-out to the some other babies that have recently arrived or are on their way... so a big hello to Lucas Dylan Murphy, Grant Jacob Phelps, Baby Girl Nusbaum, Baby Boy Russo, and the newest additions... Baby Buick and Baby Iannucci!! Let us know if I forgot anyone or if more of you have big news to share... there seems to be a bit of a baby boom going on!

Just finished a bottle, as if to say - "Yes - I conquered that bottle!"
Sweet Baby Love
We hope everyone has a happy Thanksgiving! We are getting ready for our first family trip to Baltimore to stay with Gigi and Pop-pop. Wyatt is now smiling and making a lot of faces and noises. He is awake and active most of the day (although a good couple of hours of that is fussy time) and has been sleeping about 4 hours in a row in 2 sessions at night with a break for a bottle in between. Here are some pictures of us hanging out this week and a video of Wyatt making faces and smiling:

Hello My Friends!
Hello from Wyatt! Seems that I'm now 5 weeks, going on 6 weeks old. I have been busy this past week keeping mommy and daddy on thier toes. In the beginning of the week I didn't sleep much because I was really really hungry and wanted to eat every 2 hours. I also cried a lot... just because. It was kind of a hard time for everyone. I want to say thank you to Becca and Chris for taking my dog sisters (Giselle and Morgan) for a few days to relieve mommy and daddy for a bit. It was very helpful! Towards the end of the week I decided to pull a 180 and be really cute and make a lot of sweet faces and smile at my parents. I figured they deseverd a break from the crying. I also have taken some good afternoon power naps for 3 to 4 hours in recent days which have allowed my loving parents to get a few moments to enjoy the weekend and pick up around the house (finally! - I was wondering when they were going to do my laundry). So I think we are doing better now and there is a chance that this new family I'm part of might be getting the hang of me being around. Mommy and I have also worked out an agreeable eating situation where I get bottles of breastmilk (I love bottles!- they deliver the milk way faster) rather than that breastfeeding thing that is kinda slow and frustrating for me. I also tried some formula this week, it was okay, but I prefer the mommy milk. I think I'm eating plenty of it because we went to the doctor this week and I accidently caught a glimpse of the scale and saw that I weighed over 10 lbs!! Wow I'm getting big quick! Soon I'll be out of my newborn clothes, then walking and talking and running the show... I have big plans!
Wyatt at 1-month
Wyatt is one month old!! Time flys when you are getting such little sleep... actually sleeping has been going well compared to other stories of newborns that we have heard. Wyatt typically sleeps for about 3-4 hours in a row before he wakes us up and needs to eat. We are learning new things about him every day but so far we have noticed that he likes to yawn and stretch and sleep with his arms up over his head. He sleeps best in our bed nestled in his boppy pillow between mommy and daddy (we hope this is not habit forming but admit that we like being close to him too). He also loves the pacificer and does not mind getting baths, he seems to like the warm water. Burping, pooping, and farting are his strong areas, and he is not a big fan of diaper changes. Overall things are going well and we are all looking forward to the Holidays and sharing the baby love with our friends and family.
Happy Halloween!
Trick or Treat! Wyatt thought dress up for Halloween was a bit of a mean trick. He pooped-out the first outfit and had to get changed into the next. Our little pumpkin!
Hope everyone had a great Halloween!
