A Breakthrough

I almost hate to put it in writing since I'll likely be taking it back in a few days, but I think we may have an eating breakthrough with Abby. She has been eating really well the past few days. Last night she ate 160mls at bedtime, 150mls (I think) at midnight, and 210mls!!! this morning. That's 7 oz! Of course, she spit up a little just after it, but it was just a little.

7oz is the most she has EVER eaten in one sitting. EVER. It's almost normal baby eating. I'm so excited.

(Just a note: the girls are currently entranced with an episode of The Wiggles I recorded. It's so cute. If you aren't familiar with The Wiggles, you should search and record an episode. It's good for a good laugh. 4 Australian guys who smile way too much, who sing dance, and do this funny finger pointing thing - make pointy finger with both hands and wiggle them around in a circle while wearing a goofy grin...hehehehe)

Back to eating..it's pretty exciting. Recently, the girls have started draining their 6 oz bottles and would have probably had more if the bottle had been bigger.

It's amazing to think, but maybe things are looking up!
