Dear Noah,
This is officially Mommy and Daddy's first letter to you, even though you are already 6 weeks old! Mommy has been a little bit behind the ball in getting this going, even though she has been meaning to start this for a few weeks now. I guess that's mostly because last week was the first week you and Mommy got to spend our days alone together, and Mommy needed some time to get into a routine with you.
In any case, after a rough start this week (you were very fussy and constantly hungry on Monday), we had a much calmer day yesterday. So calm, in fact, that when the lactation consultant came to visit us at our home, she was amazed at how much of a cool customer you were. Today has also been a pretty calm day. You started off by waking up at 6:40am for some early breakfast (milk); then a nap, an early lunch (milk), a bath (which you have finally started to like...well, at least you like it enough that you're not wailing), a nap and then an early afternoon snack (milk again). Since it was such a nice day and you were relatively well-behaved, you and Mommy went for a walk in the Ergo carrier.
We went to pick up some shrimp from JP Seafood for dinner and a few odds and ends on Park St. We came home an hour or so later and you were still tuckered out. Mommy left you in the Ergo infant insert for a while because you were sleeping so soundly.
When you wake up, you'll be happy to see that you got another package from your Grandpa (Gung Gung) and Grandma (Pau Pau). They have mailed a second package of clothes and gifts from their friends for you.
You are one loved and lucky baby!
Love,
Mommy & Daddy

I loved your Mommy's and Daddy's description of your birth in the hospital and your first few days at home. It was beautiful!
