One smile makes it all worth the while...
 At exactly 6 weeks of age, baby Owyn has started smiling and even had a few giggles! This has completely erased all my memories of the past four weeks of sleepless nights. All that good mamma milk has also resulted in some really nice chubby legs, pictured above.....
Owyn did give us a scare last week, with all the coughing he was doing. This past Friday he went about 14 hours without being able to sleep at all, because every time he would finally fall asleep, he would start coughing again. It turns out the poor little thing has a double ear-infection. He's doing better today, and we've gone a week without any long episodes of crying! It seems that the one benefit of his illness over the past week is that it broke the cycle of crying for long periods at night...Hopefully, this will continue. If not, at least we have more smiles and even some giggles to look forward to....
Today we needed to say good-bye to Aunt J. who spent the past week with us. Not only did she bake cookies with Sonya and Theo (pictured below), but she took her turn at the night-shift with the baby when needed! I was especially glad she was here on the days I needed to rush off the pediatrician again in the wintry weather mix. It's a treat to have family here, as my parents and sisters & their families all live at a distance. I wish they lived closer so that I could see them more often....
