Una Bruno: 6 weeks old

Hello everybody. As you may know, today I am 6 weeks old!

I've learned so many things since I was born. The best thing - when I turn up the corners of my mouth, my mommy and daddy act so funny! they jump around and say lots of silly things and flash a silver box in my eyes! It's fun making them do this.

I'm getting better at making them do what I want them to do. For instance, when I'm hungry, I blow bubbles, make lots of squeaky noises, and flail my arms and legs. If Mommy still doesn't get it, I shout and make water come out of my eyes, and that usually does the trick.

Also, when my parents drive me somewhere in the car, I like it. When they stop, like for a red light or a traffic jam, for example, I like to cry. A LOT. It keeps my parents on their toes, and makes them turn the music up. The music I like the best is called Hop Hop. It makes my daddy sing and jump around like a crazy person.

I've grown out of lots of my clothes already. Now I wear clothes for a 3 - 6 month old baby, even though I'm only 1.5 months! Everybody says I'm awfully mature for my age, and I agree.

I have what Mommy calles a "schedule" now. I sleep about 6 - 7 hours a night, eat a little, and then go back to sleep for another 3 hours. I sleep for about 3 hours in the afternoon, and then I stay awake all evening, usually from 5-9, to drink as much milk as I can before I go to sleep again for the night.
