Tristan is now 6 weeks old. It's truly amazing to watch him grow and develop. He is now smiling and cooing, when he's awake that is, and his disposition is still sweet. He does tend to let us know when he's unhappy, which is fine, but it's an adjustment for us to have him cry for no reason other than just to make himself heard. The big news is that Tristan now has an Uncle Paul, offiicially. Tristan did so well at Ash and Paul's wedding. We are so excited for Ash and Paul Hegstad! Over the course of last week, Tristan got to meet his two Great Grandmothers and his Great Grandpa Pennington as well as many cousins, auntys and uncles. It was a great celebration for Ash and Paul, and a great time for our family. Now we all wait in anticipation for the next big family event, the birth of the 2nd Pennington family baby!

Tristan is now three weeks old, soon to be four. He is doing great, getting real baths and not eating as frequently, which is beautiful. I'm learning to let him sleep in his own bed during the day and to get things done while he's sleeping. The first two weeks, I held him practically all day long. He is growing and I get on the scale with him once a week. This week he added 11 pounds to my weight. Can't wait to see the doc. for his one month check-up to see how much he's grown. Not looking forward to the shots though.

Tristan is a joy and has grown so much in just the few weeks he's been with us. Almost ten pounds now, he is a healthy eater and a very sweet baby. He loves to sleep in mommy and daddy's arms, but is not as keen on sleeping by himself on his back:) He is doing very well at night despite this and only wakes mommy every 2-3 hours for feedings, sleeping pretty consistently in-between. We are so blessed with our little boy!
