Our Family Blog

I decided that creating a blog to show friends and family everything we've been up to was easier than always posting things to facebook.  So, welcome to our blog!

I guess I'll start with an update on baby Carissa.  She was 6 weeks old on Monday.  She is getting bigger all the time, and has pretty much grown out of most of her newborn clothes.  She is still a good sleeper at night, and definitely has fallen into a night time routine of filling up on plenty of food and then going to bed for the night around 8 or 9.  She still wakes up once or twice during the night to eat, but I feel pretty lucky that I get longer stretches of sleep at night. Some days she is awake a lot and other days she sleeps more.  She is looking at things more and has more control over her hands and arms.  She also has a strong neck and can hold her head steady for longer and longer stretches.

She loves music and already has her favorite songs; Ho Hey by the Lumineers and any John Denver can get her quiet instantly.  One of Luke's coworkers teaches an infant/toddler music class and gave us a free semester as a gift.  The first class was on Wednesday and she loved it.  I forgot the camera, but will make sure to take it next week.
