Cruz's big day


Last Thursday was Cruz's six week birthday!  He is changing so much already...I feel like time is just flying by.  He is holding his head up a lot more, it is getting pretty strong.  He is focusing on things more and loves looking at lights.  He likes the big screen downstairs.  He is smiling a lot more now...we love seeing him smile.  Tyler is really good at getting him to smile.  I love watching them together.  

His six week birthday was a big day because it was the first day that we gave him a bottle!  Jared and Katie were over that night and so Katie got to give him his first bottle!  She did a great job...and Cruz took it just fine!  Yay!  I was so relieved to know that we have that freedom.  It will be so nice to be able to give him a bottle once in awhile.  And that means that Tyler and I can go out for more than two hours at a time!  :)  

It was also a big day because he slept for six hours straight that night!  I was so excited when I woke up at 5:15 and realized that he had slept so long.   It felt so good to have such a long stretch of sleep.  He hasn't done it again, but at least we know that he can do it!
