{Baby T 7 Weeks!}

Tanner loves music, loves to smile and coos. We, Victor and I, think he laughs and giggles but that could be just us crazy parents. He is very attentive and loves to look at our big picture of the lighthouse in our living room. If we put him down in his playgym he will kick and hit (only the left hand and leg) and he doesn't seem to mind on his tummy playmat either. I want to get video of him while in the playgym, he talks and coos and giggles :)

How your baby's growing: You may notice short periods of time when your newborn is quiet and alert. This is prime time for learning: Your baby's brain will grow about 5 centimeters during his first three months! Use these calm intervals to get better acquainted with your baby — talk to his, sing to him, describe the pictures on the walls. He may not be able to add to your conversation just yet, but he's learning nonetheless. New textures for his hands to feel and new sights and sounds (all in moderation) are all learning opportunities. Even bath time becomes a laboratory for understanding life.

So back at 5 weeks, remember how I said I was afraid to post numbers, well I was wrong...

1 Month at 7 Weeks:
Length = 22.25 Inches in percentile 50
Weight = 13 Pounds between percentile 90 and 95
Head Circumference = 15.25 Inches between percentile 25 and 50
