"But if serving the LORD seems undesirable to you, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods your forefathers served beyond the River, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you are living. But as for me and my household, we will serve the LORD." Joshua 24:15

11 weeks old today. We are moving on to formula. I would love to continue to breastfeed but with me starting back to auditing that just will not work. I just don't think driving down the road and pumping is a safe idea for me or the other drivers on the road. Olivia Grace is doing really well moving to formula. We are on two bottles a day of formula. While OG can ease into formula due to my poor planning I am having to go cold turkey stopping breastfeeding ....NO FUN haha. I am just glad that Olivia Grace seems to not care what food you give her just as long as you give her food. In 2 weeks we will start giving her rice cereal with a spoon, granted it will be like soup but still one step closer to baby food. I can't believe it is so close!!
She has gotten where she REALLY does not like to be laying down when she is a wake. She wants to sit up and take in everything. Her little eyes just look around the room and study everything in it. It is amazing how much she is learning. To think that everything they see is new to them. For the last few weeks she has gotten to where she makes her legs stiff so she can stand while we hold her. Which is not easy when it is time to burp. When we do tummy time now she holds her chest off the ground very well now and she flips to her back a lot now. She is a drooling Queen these days and loves to pull her shirt up and eat it. She has also discovered her feet. If you sit her on your lay where she can sit up and see her feet her eyes will get really big and she will just stare at them. You can almost tell she is really wanting to grab them but we have not quite figured out that we can really use our hands yet.
