We haven't really had too many new milestones during the 3rd week. Micah continues to be a happy baby (most of the time) we just wish he would sleep longer at night. Some nights are better than others. He will usually go about 3 hours at night in between feedings (sometimes a little less sometimes a little more). He sure does love to be held though. He can be sleeping soundly in our arms and then when he is laid down he wakes up and starts crying. We have been letting him cry at night. We are trying to put him down to bed when he is awake (when we can) and letting him cry himself to sleep. He usually does ok with this, though there are times when he gets so worked up we will have to go in to settle him down. He is still doing his involuntary smile which is adorable, though it will be fun once he smiles at us on purpose. He is very alert as well when he is awake. He also now will track things with his eyes. He was watching the mobile on his swing the other day and today he was watching the balloons we have from when he was born. He sure loves his daddy! I mean, I'm sure he loves me too but he usually just wants to eat when I hold him! He loves when Corey plays with him...they do the YMCA, tarzan, disco and more! :) Haha, so cute. I do have some good videos I will have to post at some point. He also is usually pretty content laying/sitting in his boppy seat. He are a few pics from the week.
See my big blue eyes!
So sweet and cuddly...though this isn't always the case!
Micah even got some onsies with his name on them. So adorable!! Thanks Matt and Kris.

Micah had several visitors this week. He was able to meet and spend some time with his Aunt Jess and his Grandma Fell came back out for another visit and helped with some of the early morning times. Grandma and Grandpa Kugle have also been spending lots of time with him/us.
Micah got his first real bath this week. You can tell from the picture how much he enjoyed that! :)
Micah also got some homemade baby legs as a gift from a friend of mine...look how adorable he looks in them. Nevermind the fact that daddy thinks they look like tights I think they are plenty masculine enough! haha On a side note Corey also calls his gowns dresses if that tells you anything.
I also just got my Moby Wrap in the mail today (thanks Dennis and Nancy). I tried it out with Micah (well, that is after trying it out with a stuffed elephant! ). It is a little intimidating at first as it is basically a long (I would guess 15 foot) piece of cloth that you can wrap several different ways. He seemed to like it and I loved it! It's SO great having 2 hands to be able to get some stuff done thoughI am sure "baby wearing" doesn't help the fact that he loves to be held.
