you grow, girl*

Chloe had a check-up last Monday (Yes, I know, it's been a week and I'm just posting about it now. Get over it.) and she has already grown two inches and gained a bunch of weight. She's now around 21 inches long and weighs around 8 lbs 2 oz. Her super-skinny chicken legs are starting to get chunkier, as are her arms and face. Her milk intake is anywhere from three to six ounces, depending how hungry she is (though four ounces is the average serving at the moment), and she's sleeping for longer stretches. Chloe's personal best is six hours. This monumental achievement should have been properly appreciated by sleeping. However, being that it was her first time sleeping that long, it was appreciated with mass nervousness and frequent "is she breathing?" check-ups. Sigh.

So basically, Chloe's doing really well. Which is nice.
