We're also enjoying seeing Maylee smile more often and have caught a few smiles on camera! She's sleeping better and longer at night, going as long as 5-6 hours between feedings, and has dropped a night feeding and is eating more during the day... so we're also happy to be getting a little more sleep!

This one goes to ELEVEN
Maylee weighed 11.o lbs at her doctor's visit on Friday! This put her in the 25th percentile for a 3 month old. It is absolutely amazing to see her at triple her birth weight in 3 months! She is our miracle baby and we're so thankful that the Lord and His angels have continued to watch over her. She's doing so well that her doctor suggested I could try breastfeeding alone, and when she wants to eat (versus the every 3 hour schedule she was on) to see how she does. We have another check up this Friday to make sure she's still gaining enough. So far I'm still pumping a few times a day since I have more milk than Maylee needs, but the freedom from pumping 6+ times a day and cleaning all the parts and bottles is wonderful! Yay!
