Weighing in at about 14 1/2 pounds and measuring about 24 1/2 inches long, Megan is starting to be our little chunky monkey and her 0-3 month outfits are just now starting to get a little snug. She is just the perfect size for cuddling, not too big and not too little. I enjoy cuddle time when she gets sleepy and after she finishes her bottle. Since we switched to exclusive bottle-feeding and got her back on her vitamins, her gas is more manageable and spitups are almost non-existent. However, her appetite went through the roof! I hope this is just a long growth spurt because she is sure eating a lot. She has been doing about 5 oz every 2 hours for the past 2 weeks! Her sleeping pattern is also up and down. She is very aware of her surroundings and knows when you leave her alone for even a minute. Megan had been doing really well with her sleeping-through-the-night routine until just this last week where she started to wake up around 2 or 4 for a bottle. Hopefully we can get her back on track for the coming week. Since Megan is getting stronger it's harder for her to stay swaddled up (our little swaddle Houdini!) and when she stretches out she can also touch the blankets at the end of her crib with her feet and move around which also may contribute to her not sleeping as well.
Megan continues to get smilier and smilier as the days go by. It's getting easier to make her smile and really knows her mommy and daddy along with grandparents. She gets so excited when we get close and starts waving her arms excitedly. Megan's voice is getting stronger too. In fact, John and I just stop and laugh sometimes because when she gets really loud it actually sounds like she is scolding us. Still no rolling over yet, but she still can get from her back to her side easily and if she does that enough times, she can rotate her body on the floor.
More pictures as we celebrated Megan's 3 month birthday!
