New videos, and photos...

Mazie had a doctor appointment today. Wasn't a major one, or anything, they were just a little concerned about her weight. WIC almost tried to make us feel as if we weren't feeding her enough, so Sally brought us in for a visit, just to see what her weight gain was like after a couple weeks. She gained almost 11 ounces, and is over 12 pounds now. She's on the low end of the growth chart, but being that she was 2 months early, she's fairly on track. The doctor doesn't sound worried at all, and told us to pretty much ignore WIC's 'worries'.

It just makes you feel like a really crappy parent, when you're feeding your kid constantly, and some lady says "You should let her eat any time she wants to eat..." It's kinda like... "No sh*t sherlock, you think we're eating the formula you're giving us?". Then it was "You should let her sleep whenever she wants to sleep?". Makes you wanna say "Really? You mean she shouldn't be staying out with her friends until 2 AM?!?"

Oh well, she's doing well, and is happy... that's all that really matters!

Good Morning Mazie!




More crawling attempts

Mazie is crawling... sorta. She only goes backwards, but she goes. This means Mom no longer has time for... well... uh... anything!

Mazie starts eating real food today! Unrelated video here... I'll try to get another one when she's eating later this morning.

New Vids, and Photos!

Vacation photos coming soon!

So, today Mazie had another doctor appointment. She is now 9lbs 4oz and 22 inches long! she will be 4 months old this saturday, and the doctor has given us the go ahead on people food next month. she also got her 4 month shots today, which was probably harder on me than it was Mazie. Jake was there for support and as always is the best dad ever!

We put a video up and some pictures of our trip to santa rosa. Mazie did awesome in the car, sleeping almost the entire way. As long as the car is moving she's happy. She did get sun burned pretty bad when we went to Bodega Bay. We had her covered, hat, jacket, pants and shoes. The reflection off the sand did her in. Blistered face and everything. but she never made one peep! she's so tough! Of course we felt horrible, but her doctor said she did the exact same thing to her kid, and being a doctor she should have known better so she said not to worry.

Sally (mazie's doctor) is so so pleased with Mazies progress. she says the ONLY way you can tell she is a preemie is her size. everything else is either right on target or WAY ahead of the game. She said that by the time she is a year old, she should be right on track with her weight and height. Of course, we think she's perfect. lol

Mazie and I are going to go back to Bellingham for a few weeks, driving up with dad, and driving back down with Jake. will post many pictures when we get back!

Have some Pics from Santa Rosa!

Mazie had a good time at all the BBQ's this past weekend. Jason on Saturday, and Family on Sunday. Got a bunch of pictures up on Photobucket.

Wayne turned on the mister, which she didn't seem to be a big fan of, but her reaction was funny to say the least.

Ian held her for a bit, as did tons of other people. She slept pretty good the past couple nights, so I'm bettin' y'all tuckered her out a bit.

New pictures added to Photobucket. No news to speak of... Mazie's still doing her best to get that noggin of hers held up by herself, as well as crawling, and standing with some assistance from Mom, and Dad...
