Big Girl Bottles

Yesterday Claire moved on from the bottles we used in the NICU to the Avent bottles we bought for her. We had tried these when we first got home but she didn't seem to be getting anything. So for the last couple of weeks we have been washing bottles, upon bottles, upon bottles. We used the Avent bottles to mix her milk/formula concoction and poured that into the NICU bottles for feeding. On top of that mom pumps into a different set of bottles. Bottles everywhere! Now we are down to just two types of bottles and can mix and feed out of one - whew!

Claire took the chance to get out of the house today for a quick visit to mom's softball team. (Mom's first time driving Claire - yikes!) Mom had to drop off the new shirts the team ordered and dad had a game as well so mom decided to take Claire with her and introduce her to team Teal. It was too windy for a long visit but the team had a chance to visit with the latest edition to the Teal cheering squad. For the outing, mom dressed Claire in one of her new outfits from last week's shower.

Claire appears to be doing her best disco move with her arm over her head and with those long tight duds. It's all about showmanship.

She also looks like she is 'puttin' her hands in the air and waiving them she just don't care' in her little pink dress.
