Preschool Sunday Performance

A great performance, despite being pushed repeatedly by her classmate, Pomai (girl between Sadie and Chase)!  Both Grandpa and Grammie asked "what's that girl's problem...the one that was pushing her".....and when I asked daddy who they were talking about, he said "I didn't see anyone pushing her".....after watching the video, I'm wondering how he could miss that! LOL.

Second-Child Syndrome

Callie is officially 3 months old today, and while we love her just as much as Sadie, there just hasn't been enough time to keep a "diary" of her growth like we had with Sadie.  Besides the obvious fact that Sadie consumes A LOT of our time, the rest of our time is spent just "staying afloat" caring for Baby Minn #2...who has surprisingly been more of a challenge to us than Sadie was the first time around as new (rookie) parents.  In just these first few months, Callie has been to almost as many doctor's appointments as Sadie had in the whole first year!  We are nearing the end of the bumpy path and on to smooth sailing....I hope!

At 3 months Callie:
- weighs >15 lbs (not sure on the exact weight, but a few weeks ago she was already 14 lb 12 oz, this is in stark contrast to Sadie who was <14 lbs at FOUR months)
- is on zantac (ranitidine), which is an acid reducer for her GERD.  It took a few weeks to stabilize, but it seems we are on the right track as far as helping to decrease her discomfort.
- likes her soothie pacifier
- has taken daddy's place on mommy's bed
- drinks about 4 oz of milk every 4 hours
- is a very light sleeper....longest stretch yet has been 6 hours one time only, and she only did this because Grammie was carrying her THE WHOLE TIME.  Normal for her is about 3-4 hours, with 1-2 brief awakenings in between.
- loves when you talk to her, she is a big-time talker....she might be part podagee :)
- hates tummy time
- barely fits 6 month clothes
- gets lots of compliments on her bushy, dark eyebrows
- daddy says her name should have been "Carrie (Carry)" instead of "Callie" because she constantly wants to be carried!
- spends a lot of time, even sleeps in her car seat (since it's at an incline, which helps with her reflux)
- can be described as "sensitive, needy, & cuddly" -- I'm predicting this will be my shy girl that cries on her fist day of pre-school, unlike big sister who just jumped right in head first!
