5 weeks

Quincy babe is almost 6 weeks! I'm updating on her because we had to go to the doc 😝 so I know her weight currently. She was 10lbs 5oz! Chunker!  

She already has her first cold. So sad. She isn't super fussy during the day, but
she's not sleeping. It seems to really bother her at night. Poor girl can hardly breath. I find myself trying to clear the mucous out of my own throat and nose thinking maybe it will clear it for her. Lol. 

This was the one good nap she's taken since who knows when. 

She was Cinderella for Halloween. 

So far she is certainly not the easy third baby I was counting on. It's good that I kept this blog when Henry was little, cause I remember him being so easy, then I read this and realize he really wasn't that easy. 

Quincy doesn't fuss a ton during the day, but does at night. She requires all of my attention from about 4 until I can get her to go to sleep. I've been trying to get her to bed around 6:30 for the past week. But it doesn't always work. Thanks to my noisy other kids and her just not really wanting to cooperate. She sleeps okish at night. She doesn't stay awake long after I feed her but she wakes up SCREAMING when she's hungry or whatever else is upsetting her. Like literally I think she's shaving years off my life when I wake up in a panic cause she is death screaming right next to me. It is so startling. She grunts and squirms all night. Even in bed with me she just doesn't sleep restfully. She eats about twice a night. During the day she goes 2.5-3 hours and at night usually does one 4hr (we've gotten a couple 5hr) stretches  unfortunately it's the first one after she goes to bed. So I don't benefit much from it. She also spits up quite a bit every time she eats. 

This is as close to a smile as I've gotten on camera. But she IS smiling at me. More each day. I think I got my first smile a couple weeks ago. 

Blakely wants to hold her touch her sing to her play with her all the time. I actually have to keep her away sometimes cause she has a knack for "playing" with her as she is dozing off or barely stirs and Blakely yells "she's awake!" Lol. Henry occasionally wants to touch her or hold her but he is generally not that interested in her. He told us the other day that he's still not ok with it that she isn't a boy.
