Well, we made it to 6 weeks...I have a completely new respect for parents! Erin is still pretty fussy, and the only thing that always calms her down is holding her and walking up and down the stairs. That's good for my baby fat, but bad for my already low energy level! She has not been sleeping as well as night the past several days for some reason - it's like she is sleeping really lightly and wakes up as soon as we try to put her down, or even if we try to move. I am hoping this phase goes by really quickly! She is eating about every 2-3 hours, but will occasionally go about 4 hours at night on a good night, so we live for those nights. I don't know how some moms go back to work at 6 weeks, because I still feel like a zombie. I keep saying that the crying doesn't bother me - it's the lack of sleep that is so bad!
Here's a picture of our pretty girl who makes it all worth it:

The picture is beautiful. You don't look tired at all :) I hope you catch more shut-eye soon, though.
LOVE this picture! You're a great mom!
