My mood while writing this blog: Busy

Been a while since I did a Paige update...

Since we are in-between doctor's visits (next one isn't until August 18.... that'll be two months between visits, yikes!) my husband weighed Paige on the bathroom scale the other day. She weighs somewhere between 11.5-12 pounds. Still gaining weight, but she isn't increasing her formula intake at all. Once she started sleeping through the night, she drank more ounces each sitting, but also dropped out a bottle in the process. So we are stuck in a rut at 20-22 ounces of 22-calorie formula per day.

Developmental-wise, she seems on-track for a 3 month old (which fits with her due date). Paige babbles constantly, and absolutely LOVES it when you talk to her. Makes her smile every time. She can lift her head high now during tummy time but her neck muscles get tired after about 5 minutes. She can sit and stand with support. She rolled over twice this week from tummy-to-back but freaked out immediately after... NOT LIKING the roll over at all! And she finally grabs at toys now. Her favorite is the plastic toucan on her bouncy seat.... she hits that thing and makes it spin, giggling the whole time.

Oh, and Monday Paige will be 6 months old. Yay!!!!
