6 Weeks

Xavier is 6 weeks old! I can't believe how quickly time is already flying by! He had his 6 week check-up yesterday and the doctor said that he's perfect. Here were his stats:

Weight: 12 lbs. 4 oz. (90th percentile)

Length: 23/3 in. (90th percentile)

Head Circumference: 50th percentile (they didn't tell me the actual measurement)

So we have a big boy with an average sized head which is what I expected.

Here are some more facts about Xavier at this age:

-He started smiling and cooing this week!

-He seems to have a very serious personality and doesn't like any nonsense.

-He is now wearing 6 month clothing which I think it's partly because we have him in really bulky cloth diapers (that are adorable by the way).

-We aren't even close to having a routine but I've gotten pretty good at anticipating when he'll be sleeping and when he'll want to eat (even though those are at totally different times everyday). He has been going to bed between 10:30 and 11:30 every night which is the closest thing that we have to a schedule. He has been sleeping for at least 4 hours straight for the past few nights which has been really nice!

-We think he might be a soccer player when he grows up because he has really strong kicking legs that are always going.

-He is starting to grab things like Dan's tie or my hair and not let go!

-He gets cuter by the minute : )
