Gemma turned 6 weeks old on Saturday. This week she's been a much fussier baby, but at the same time, she's also getting much more interactive and giving us lots of smiles! I love love love her little smile!
This week she also discovered she likes the pacifier - but only the Soothie kind by Avent. She'll take it sometimes and loves to suck and look around and eventually fall asleep.
We are also discovering she loves to sleep on her belly - and we realize that BACK IS BEST, however when she's doing her tummy time and falls asleep, we can't help but think she's so cute!
We're working on aiming for smiles during our weekly photo shoots, but so far we only get the straight-face look. We think she's still cute!
Gemma loves to take mini-naps on our bed while I get ready and do little things around the house. (For all you rule-followers, don't judge or worry, we don't REALLY let her sleep like this with our comforter on her, just for mini-naps while we're right nearby.
This week, Gemma also spent almost a whole day with her Grammy and Nonno while I had my 6 week check up. She got to use her new play yard that Grammy bought her and she had a great day - lots of smiles and love! We also went shopping at Broadway Plaza with Stefania and met up with Grandma Debbie and her friends for lunch. Gemma was a great little shopper - mostly she slept in her stroller or looked around and enjoyed the change of scenery.
On lists of amazing baby items, this week's is not really a baby item, but it's amazing and comes in very handy for nursing and pumping and just holding a sleeping baby. We got an iPad2 and it's FABULOUS! I can now check my email, surf the internet, play Words with Friends, check my bank balance, pay bills, chat on Yahoo! Messenger, watch TV shows on Hulu, stalk on Facebook, shop on Amazon, and read books on Kindle while I nurse, pump or just hold the sleeping baby.
