Weekend Fun...and it's only Saturday!

I'll start off with a short bit of feeding updates:

  • Carter's daily volume intake is now averaging 930mLs (31 ounces) at 26 cal/oz (regular formula is 20 cal/oz); we'll probably begin to increase the calories to 27 cal/oz next week
  • We changed the NG tube yesterday and today, during a puke session, it launched out of his body like a missile~that's why some of these pics are tube-free
  • His OT started him on Biter Biscuits/Teething Biscuits this past week and he's doing well with them; he certainly doesn't have an aversion to putting them in his mouth, but I don't think he really knows what to do with them (yes, Alison, Chris & Davis, he's waiting for those sweets you keep telling him about)
  • The reflux seems to be bothering him more in the past few days, so it's likely he's gained weight and it's time for another weight adjustment; we'll find out later this week

Now for lots and lots of pictures:

"Hey Lucy...why don't you eat this Biter Biscuit and we'll pretend that I actually ate it."

Lucy makes a perfect 30 degree incline for reducing reflux

Carter's PJs from his California Girlfriend

"La, la, la...I'm just sitting here. I promise I'm not about to do anything..."
"...HA! GOTCHA!!!!"
"mmmm...love that camera strap"
Goofing around with Daddy!
We didn't want to be left out
This week, I found Carter doing this (in the video below) just after a face-licking from Lucy. I don't know if he just coincidentally started sucking his upper lip or is mimicking Lucy, but it's pretty funny to watch.



And here's more giggles for those giggle-lovers out there (sorry it's sideways--I keep forgetting that I can't rotate the videos)
