Eliza goes swimming!

At 7 weeks (8 today!) we decided we'd see how Eliza likes the pool...she's a fan of bathtime so we'd thought this would be more of the same....

At first there was this....

But once she got used to the water she calmed down and was pretty relaxed for the rest of our time in the pool...she even started cooing near the end so we declared it a success!

6 weeks

This week Eliza is 6 weeks old ... time sure flies!  She's gone from this at 7 days old:

We know that she's getting longer and a bit plumper ... staying awake for longer periods ... smiling ... working on finding her thumb ... becoming a better night sleeper ... loves to swing ... more aware of her surroundings and people ... and we can't wait to see what else we learn about her as time goes by!
