My sweet baby boy will turn 6 weeks old tomorrow! I can't believe how fast it's gone by. I've learned a lot about him.
- I've learned that we are a fan of baby wearing. Right now Daniel is snuggled up against my chest wrapped in a Moby. After a long while of fighting with his fussing this morning, I wrapped him up and he fell asleep within a few minutes. Once I'm finished writing this post, I'm going to head down to my studio space and try to cut out the pieces for my quilt while wearing him.
- Remember all those diapers my mom and I made? Well, I've learned that just because they are cute doesn't mean they will work. I think I've given up on using them because every time I have, they have leaked. I think maybe there are too many layers in the pattern I used to get a good gather at the legs and back, thus making the seal not so good.
- I've learned that we're good at breastfeeding. Last Wednesday, the little guy weighed in at 9 pounds, 12 ounces!
- I've learned that we like to snuggle.
- I've learned that Daniel is a bit of a music snob. We listen to a lot of the Rockabye Baby station on Pandora & if he doesn't like a song he will whine until it is changed.
- I've learned that Daniel is a fan of Wassily Kandinsky. In my living room, we have a poster of this Kandinsky painting. Daniel loves to stare at it.
I'll try to pop in a little more often, but right now my days are mostly filled with dirty diapers, naps, and feeding.

What a cutie! Congratulations. :)
That's a bummer about the diapers. I had good results using DQS prefolds and velcro covers with my kids. :)
Awwwwhhh, what a sweetie! Congrats to you both!
Congrats! I had problems with leaking when my guy was small and his legs didn't fill out the holes. But we settled on prefolds with covers anyway, because they were cheap, and didn't bother with making my own.
