thank goodness for the swing!

I wont go so far as to say Zoe loves her swing, but she'll take it as an alternative to being held. She'd much prefer to be in the thick of things, on someone's lap or in their arms, to see what is going on so we've had to raise the seat angle so she is more upright. She gets being nosey honest. From me. :)


And no one can accuse me of not feeding this child. The only things she likes more than being held is eating. She is slowly working her way up and off the charts, weighing in at a healthy 12.5 pounds (and steadily gaining). I thought breastfed babies were supposed to be smaller than their formula fed counterparts?? Not my little cupcake!

I have a 3 week old and the swing is already a lifesaver! She fights sleep, scared to miss something it seems, but the swing always makes her happy. She also has the same onesie :)

My breastfed boy isn't small either...more like HUGE. I fully expect Will to be pushing 20lbs at his 6 month appointment in a couple weeks. And no, haven't started solids...he's getting that big on breastmilk alone!

My youngest was bigger the first 6 months and then slowed down the 2nd 6 months, which is typical in some of them...

Wowie! You must have some high calorie milk. She's SUCH a cutie! We love the swing, too! I hate to set Chloe down but I have to sometimes and that's my favorite place.
