Shiloh turned six weeks old last Thursday and I can hardly believe how quickly the time is flying by. Not surprisingly, none of the traditional milestones (i.e., rolling over, crawling, walking, talking, etc.) have been met, but all of her newborn reflexes are intact and she can now imitate us when we stick out our tongues. She has also had the ability to hold her head up since day 3. The only real problem, as far as we can see, is that she's not even close to sleeping through the night.
Fortunately, with all of the help we've had in town these last two weeks, Michelle has been able to steal a nap here and there. Our efforts to drive down the number of times she wakes at night have also started to take effect & we're now averaging just 2-3 wakings per night.
