3 MONTHS OLD!!

It is going buy way too fast and I can't believe Kanas is already 3 months old today. This past month in a half has been a bit of a gong show. I want to start buy saying that Kansas is an amazing baby. She sleeps amazing, 10 hrs straight at nigh time. She has the most adorable smile ever. She is almost always happy and content at home, she gets a bit fussy when we are out and about and like Macie screams bloody murder when we put her in her car seat. She is now starting to love her baths and diaper changes. She is awesome at tummy time and naps great during the day. She is already reaching for toys, smiling like crazy and recognizing Me, Mark and the kids. She loves sucking her thumb and  she weighs about 11 lbs 3 ounces, and her to dye for hair is still there, I can already put it in a ponytail, and  Everywhere we go people comment on her hair. Know to explain the gong show. When Kansas was born she was 8 lbs 11 ounces and in the 90th percentile. When we went for her 7 week check up she had fallen into the 30th percentile, a week later when we went back, down to the 20th percentile. The doctors were hugely concerned and had me meet up with a Lactation specialist. She looked at Kansas mouth and figured she had an upper lip tie and lower tongue tie. We were referred to a dental surgeon and in the mean time had to do tube feeding and extra bottle feeding, which was not going well at all. After the laser surgery on her lip and tongue I noticed her suck was getting better and my milk supply was coming in stronger so I thought for sure her weight was going to be picking up. Unfortunately it was not, we waited one more week for another weigh in and when that came back even worse the Doctor decided to send us off to a paediatrician. We see the Peds doctor in November. The Doctor did do a good check up on Kansas and thinks she is a healthy, strong, happy baby. Which mom agrees. If it wasn't for the visits I would have had no idea she wasn't gaining any weight because she is such a good baby and reaching all her milestones and looks like she is growing. But the Doctor still wants to send us to a Peds Doctor just to make sure nothing is wrong. So we have been praying hard that all is OK with our sweet little bug. We just love this little girl so much and are so happy we decided to have another one, she has filled out home with so much love and happiness and we all just adore her.
