Soon enough...Ian will be turning 3 months and he is growing soooo fast. He went to the doctor last Monday and weighed 9 lbs 12 oz. I totally feel it in my arms. He is such a great baby. He barely cries. He loves hanging out on the swing and tummy time. He laughs at just about anything...even when I suction out his buggers, he laughs. His reflux had gotten better...and then it returned. Apparently, when it first started, we had been giving him too much milk for his size. We were giving him three ounces and that was too much for his little stomach and that's what was causing all the chaos. Well, when his body weight caught up, 3 ounces was just right and he was digesting it very well, so I boosted it up and now it came back. Well..I went down to 3 1/2 ounces because according to his body weight, he should be taking 3.123 ounces every 3 hours or 25 ounces in one day. He's doing better. He's barely gagging and barely spitting up, so that's good, and he doesn't stay hungry. He sleeps most nights for 5 hours straight and when he doesn't, he'll at least sleep 3 hours. He has a bit of a cold now. Nothing big, just a stuffy nose, so we're taking care of that. Above is a picture of Ian's dedication at church.
