Eight Months

Time is FLYING! Is anyone else shocked that Claire is already eight months old?

Her growth has really taken off in the last two months, something that I attribute largely to her learning to breastfeed and being able to breastfeed her as much as she wanted. We haven't gotten much sleep but it's been worth it! Are you ready for her stats?!!!!

She is 25.6 inches (8th percentile) long and weighs 15lb 9 oz (15th percentile). She is wearing 3-6 month tops, 0-3 month bottoms, and she finally fits in newborn size shoes!

She is army crawling now and holds up her head like a champ. She sees something she wants and is determined to find a way to get it! She is just beginning to put weight through her arms but with her determination to get around, it shouldn't be long. She LOVES attention and comes alive as soon as she thinks someone might be heading her direction. She's a big talker, loves kisses, and has the best smiles.

After a month of searching for answers about her swallowing (visiting specialists and having testing), and some disappointing news about her lungs, we have switched back to pumping and bottles with a preemie nipple. Please pray that her lungs begin to heal and that she won't need as much medicine. She had gotten used to breast feeding so it has been a challenging week while she was adjusting but she is getting more used to our new (old) routine every day.

Here she is!!





And a little comparison:
