Our Libra Baby....

Brady is now 6 weeks old! Wow! Last night he slept straight through from 10:00PM to 4:30AM. I couldn't believe it. He's been sleeping for about 4 and a half hours at night, but never 6 and a half. He's a big boy and growing so fast.
He is also kicking out of his swaddle at night. He is 22 1/2 inches long and it shows! Our swaddling blankets feel like they're shrinking, but Brady's just getting bigger. We can't believe how long he is because Cole and I are both "vertically challenged":-) Haha!
Brady has also officially grown out of those tiny little onesies he wore the first four weeks of his life. It's funny to think about it now b/c I had all these baby clothes and only a handful of onesies that would fit him. He was so tiny! Now he is a big boy and officially in 0-3 month clothes. (not newborn anymore!)
Brady is so smiley in the mornings when he wakes up and I love it! He stretches out his back, legs, and arms and smiles so big b/c he knows a bottle is coming soon! When I take the first burping break during a feeding, he gets so mad b/c he just wants to eat and not burp. He gets all squirmy and tries to push back into feeding position. As soon as I hold him again to feed him, he is silent- waiting for that bottle to come to his mouth!
Every time I gaze at Brady, all I can see is Cole! He looks so much like him. His little toes are just like his daddy's. He has a long torso, just like daddy. He has big blue eyes and an calm personality, just like daddy! I'm starting to think..... did I even have a part in this baby boy?! J/K! I will claim his cute lips b/c they look just like mine:-) Haha!
He loves "tummy time". After tummy time, I lay him on his Baby Einstein play mat. He has learned if he kicks the toys hanging from his play mat, the music will start playing and the lights will start flashing! What a smart boy! Can you tell I'm a proud mommy?

I found this below all about Libra babies and I think it describes him pretty well:-)

The Libra baby will revel in the attention of others from the get-go. That baby whom everyone is cooing over at the doctor's office? Yes, it's a Libra. Passive yet charming, people can't help fawning all over this sun-kissed child. Perhaps it's the way a Libra baby smiles when others swoon. Whatever the case may be, this child is possessed of the most endearing qualities. Even-tempered and sweet in disposition, the Libra baby loves to have others around and would much rather be with company than alone. In a group, this child will mix quite well with others, displaying the very Libran qualities of sociability and diplomacy. The Libra tot is a born mediator, perhaps prepping early on for a career as a lawyer or judge. Loving fancy touches, the Libra child is not likely to take well to hand-me-downs, especially girls! These are kids who love to feel pretty, and the best clothes are a big step in that direction. Comfort is also important to this child, so clean, pressed clothes and a snappy room are an added plus. Sense a bit of control here? Well, the Libra child does know how to be manipulative, although they manage to do it in the nicest way. To sum up, the Libra baby likes to talk, loves to socialize, and is a splendid (and even-handed) addition to any play group. Let the games begin!
