11 weeks old and growing!

Amyah

Here she is wearing the same outfit when she was only 20 days old.

• 11 lb, 10 oz; 22 1/2 inches at 2 month appointment (90% in all areas on preemie chart--wow!)
• 11 weeks (2 1/2 months) old
  
• Eats 5 ounces (150ml) of formula every 4 hours; takes 30 minutes to finish a bottle.
  
• Still not too much spit-up!
  
• Very good sleeper. Her morning and afternoon nap are always atleast 3 hours long (sometimes she'll sleep as long as 5 hours!). Yay!
  
• Usually goes for 8 hour stretches at night (11 pm - 7 am!)
  
• Very loud burps...2 very different and distinct burps each time
• She's losing her hair! It may have stopped falling out at such a fast rate. Maybe she'll stop losing it. Who knows...
  
• Mostly calm and happy :)
• Hardly ever takes a pacifier. Uses her thumb and index finger to soothe herself in bed.
  
• So smiley! Especially if you rub her cute double chin. And, she loves to coo at us too!
• So easy and happy! I keep telling Tyler and Susie how lucky they are to have such a good baby sister. I have plenty of time each day to focus my attention on my two oldest kids.
  
• When I do get to take care of her, it is actually relaxing. I finally have a moment when I have to sit down and relax...a moment when I have a good excuse to take a break from my busy mommy life.

In my opinion, having a 3rd child has been easier than #1 or #2. It probably has a lot to do with how good of a baby she is. It also probably has a lot to do with the age of Tyler and Susie. They play with each other and require little attention on most days. It's amazing to think of how stressed I was when Tyler was a baby. This time around, Amyah is probably one of the least stressful, most enjoyable parts of my life. We love her so much!
