Weight - 11 lbs 2 oz (4/24/17)
Length - 23.5 inches (4/24/17)
Nicknames - Audible, still using Audie-bear, Audawald, (Little) Dingy, Little Peanut, Goober
Clothing- 3-6 month outfits!
Sleep - Wow- what a swift change, week 6-7 you started sleeping for longer stretches at a time, about 4-6 hours at first and now consistently 5 and sometimes 6. We've tried to get you on a schedule with bed between 8-10 and it's been working. They say 6 hours is considered sleeping through the night which sounds amazing, we're just struggling with getting you down to sleep after your initial 5-6 hour stretch. Around 7am you usually decide you're over the bassinet and demand to be held. Dad will take you downstairs to cuddle and let me sleep for another 1.5-2 hours.
Milestones/Firsts - Cooing! At 7 weeks you had such an explosion, you coo and talk right back to us now regularly. Around 5-6 weeks you started to smile intentionally - it is so rewarding to talk to you and see your sweet gummy smile and your eyes light up. I want t capture a picture of it but I'm too busy looking at you and smiling back. You smile the most in the mornings during our morning feeding. I sing you our "morning song" it's not much but it goes like this...Good morning good morning to Aud or Audie-bear and Audie-boo, Audie-oh and Audie- eu
You're also a lot more drooly and you blow bubbles

Strong neck control!
Likes - You're now big enough for your swing and you spend at least a few hours in it a day. It's allowed me to get more done around the house, cook, bake, and even start this blog. You love your polka-dot chair and your red chair. You are "standing" when we hold you and you wiggle ALL THE TIME. You love to suck on your fist and try to fit the entire thing in your mouth.
Dislikes - still not interested in the paci at all
Cat update - They really aren't interested in you yet. When I nurse you in the morning, Bert will come and sit on the boppy with us and smell your head but that's it. If we put you too close to them they will walk away.
Special Trips/Visitors/Events - We went to Aunt Lorsey's 50th birthday and you met all of my cousins
Things to Remember - Your poop so LOUDLY! Seriously, everyone comments on it. Your poops/farts will last 10-20 seconds which is a pretty long time for someone so small. Both of your grandmas say they don't remember us making this much noise while we poop so we don't know where this comes from.

You are spending less time sleeping on my chest so I am trying to get at least one chest hold a day.
