       Happy Halloween from our little monster! I refuse to believe we've had three whole months with her, but watching her develop a personality miiigghht be worth it. She's still the sweetest baby ever, but she has started getting fussy in the evenings due to tummy aches and reflux. I'm just glad that this is usually over before bedtime. Speaking of, guess who's been sleeping through the night for a whole week?! All my thanks to velcro swaddles. She'll fuss and fuss and then the second she's bundled, she's out like a light. And come morning, this girl is the happiest little camper. I love it.

       Her reflux has gotten pretty bad, so this month she's started some treatment that seems to be helping her keep more food down. She went through a bit of a hunger strike earlier this month, and still won't take a bottle, and her pedi blames it on reflux making swallowing painful. Poor baby. She only gained a pound this month and dropped from the 80th to the 50th weight percentile. Her new medicine gives her a bit of gas, and she always coughs when she toots. Its adorable. We call it "Peter Griffining," because of this clip here.

       She likes being on her tummy on the boppy when she's achey, and this has given her crazy strength - she's been rolling from front to back now for almost a month! It really is just crazy to watch her develop into her own little person so quickly. Bobby and I both think that the more kids you have, the faster the clock runs. Soon I'll blink and our girlies will be grown!
