6 weeks old! These weekly posts are SO HARD to get done on time, especially now.  Ava is becoming more and more alert and fun to play with when she's my "happy baby." However, more awake time also means more fussy times :( and with this makes me A LOT more busy so not to often do I get time to blog. She has had a few nights where she has slept for a 5 hour stretch! The first night it happened, I was convinced something was wrong! And I was up every hour on the hour just waiting for her to wake up. What a cruel joke! This week the worst thing happened ...mommy got sick....nothing worse than a sick mom, I felt so bad (but VERY thankful) for Justin, He woke up every feeding to feed her/change her, and play with her when she was wide awake at 2 am, what I loved most was that he didnt complain once. 

This was a relaxing week, a lot of snuggling and napping while mommy got feeling better. Ava started to smile some (not a ton) and not only when shes pooping :) 

Funniest moment this week: I thought it was weird that Ava hadn't "done her "DOO-DY"(poop) in quite a while(Which if you know Ava is NOT NORMAL). I decided a nice warm bath would help relieve stomach pain...well I was right and NOT PREPARED for what was going to happen. Ava enjoyed her bath like she always does, as I drained the water and got her towel ready I noticed she started grunting, which was followed by a huge POOPSPLOSION! YIKES...so I had to yell for Justin he held her while I cleaned the bath and re-filled the tub for bath #2! So Mom tip of the week, if your baby is constipated and has a stomach ache, try a nice warm bath :)
