David has affectionately been calling Carly "chunky monkey" since she was born. I find this quite ironic since she is in the 25th - 50th percentile for weight (who would have thought he and I would have a skinny baby). However, I will say that today this nick name was quite fitting. She had five milk feedings (she typically has six, but the night is still young... I predict a sixth in our future) and 2 tablespoons of rice cereal around breakfast time, a tablespoon of sweet potatoes around lunch time, and just under a tablespoon of avocado around dinner time. CHUNKY MONKEY!!
Although she may just be going through a growth spurt or needed extra nutrition after a busy day of going to an Easter Egg Hunt and visiting with a few of her "older" (as in 3 years old) friends in the neighborhood. :-)
**UPDATE** - She did wake up for that 6th feeding at 3:45am. It is a good thing her mommy is a light sleeper, Dave didn't even hear her over the monitor.
