Here I come Abs of Steel

So I had my six week check up today, and I've got the all clear for exercise etc now. I'm pretty excited for being able to use the little gym our apartment complex has, I need to lift some weights so I can lift my large baby. Jett had his six week appointment last week and he's doing great. He's 12 pounds now and is just as cute as can be. My favorite part my my doctors appointment today was hearing "see you in a year". The last few months have been pretty doctor filled and I'm not really a huge doctor fan. I still have to take Jett to all his appointments but I'm happy to do it.

This week for Valentine's Day Rick and I are gonna go on a hot date to the California Science Center, a cool science museum in LA that has lots of space, technology and other science exhibits that sound cool. One I'm excited about is one of their current rotating exhibits, it is an interactive CSI place where you get to solve a crime. It is probably more geared to kids, but I don't care because it sounds fun to me.

The last few days have been pretty good because I think Jett just might be hitting his stride with sleeping. He still goes to bed late, usually around 1am, but the last couple of days he then slept for 6 hours. He wakes up, eats, hangs out wide awake for a couple of hours, eats again, and it is time for a nap. I'm okay with this schedule, cause I am used to being up late and the morning nap is good cause if I feel tired I sleep, but I can also use it to shower and feel ready for the rest of the day ahead. My relief society president, who is a maternity nurse, told me the other day to not get too used to this schedule because he is going to go through another growth spurt soon.

Another highlight of the last few days is that Jett is starting to smile when he's awake (he smiles tons in his sleep) and he's starting to use his little baby voice more and more. I'm a little jealous because he usually does it more when Rick is holding him, but it doesn't stop it from being totally cute. He's also enjoying baths a little more, which makes our job a lot easier.
