I am going to be a bit of a gushing mommy in this post so if that bothers you- don't read it.

Dixon is 6 weeks old yesterday and he has started "waking up".   I finally feel like I am taking care of a developing person vs a big hungry bag of poop.

He can now put his fist in his mouth accurately about 90% of the time.
He can hit a specific toy or area with his right hand.
He has started using the letter o instead of just ah- and playing a bit more with sounds esp g.
He actively watches us as we do things around the house- yesterday he sat on my lap at the table and watched our guests and Ryan eat their dinner and talk.
He is grabbing at everything- your shoulder when you pick him up, the straps on my shirt, my hair.
He smiles when he thinks we aren't watching- practice for the big event.
He can sometimes soothe himself back to sleep.

We are still working on sleeping more than 2 hours at night (although he does 3 during the day) but we will get there.

Maybe by week 8?!
