6 weeks old!!!

Well once again we are celebrating another week of Kensley's life. We can't believe how fast these past 6 weeks have gone! I don't know why, but I feel like 6 weeks is such a milestone. Maybe because everyone said that the first 6 weeks are the hardest or maybe because of the 6 week postpartum visit. Well whatever the reason...we're celebrating 6 weeks with our little girl!

Kensley has been doing great! We've been learning so much about her and are starting to feel like we're getting into a rhythm. Kens is a great sleeper and has been sleeping an average of 6 - 7 hours straight at night in between feedings. She rang in her 6 week birthday last night by sleeping over 8 hours straight! I couldn't believe it! We've found that her fussy time tends to be in the evening between dinner and bedtime. And despite being a great sleeper, she is already fighting going to sleep. Kens is still a great eater...I'm sure you'll be able to tell that by the pictures below. She's still got those cute chubby cheeks! Here are a few pictures of the past week!

Happy girl! Kensley's best smiles are usually first thing in the morning when she wakes up. I caught this one last week!

Such a cute little baby!

Take a guess what she is doing in this picture. She's started making funny facial expressions and grunting now. It's so funny as it seems she wants to let us know that she needs a diaper change.

Last Thursday, Kensley met her new friend Ellie Schwander. Kensley and Ellie are exactly 1 month and 2 days a part.

This is such a funny picture. It looks like Kens is trying to figure out why Ellie is crying.

Last Friday, we went to a Christmas program at our church. It was Kensley's first visit to church and she did a great job...she slept through the entire program.

Kensley is pretty particular about how she is held. She's quick to let you know if she doesn't like a position. Here Jeremy was trying to get her to sleep. She was sitting on his left arm and he held the pacifier in her mouth with his right arm. She actually fell asleep in this position.
