3 weeks and tummy time

how is he 3 weeks already? 
i seriously can not believe how much time is flying by
it's super weird when i'm holding and snuggling makai
and then i hold and snuggle emi
the size difference blows me away!
not to mention she feels like a giant compared to him.

i feel so lucky to have yet another good sleeper
hope i didn't just jinks myself :)
even though each day is different as to what time feeding time is
he goes anywhere from 3 hours to 6 hours.
generally throughout the day it is closer to 4 hours
at night it ranges from 3 hours to 6 hours
which i personally think is a huge gap
i love like last night that he went 6 hours
what i don't love is that emi peed the bed again!
second time in 2 weeks, maybe 3 weeks....
i don't think it is the changes in her life
but to the fact that both times she didn't go to the bathroom before bed
and drank large amounts of apple juice.
ekk! which also means she didn't brush her teeth either!!
 
needless to say, i feel blessed with my sweet angel babies
this was taken this morning around 8am
i love that he just goes right back to sleep after his night feedings.

yesterday makai had his 3 week appt.
he is doing so good! he is up to 9 pounds 10 ounces.
makes the late nights and tired mornings feel worth it
hope we can chunk him up quick. 
he has a nasty case of baby chicken legs going on
well compared to emi anyways...they have rolls but nothing like emi's

poor child might have to have a mo-hawk or shaved head his whole life.
his head grew 5 cm...ha!
um and he grew an inch and a half?
when we went to his 3 day appt he shrunk to 19 inches from 20.5
but at his 3 week appt. he was back to 20.5...who knows.
i'm thinking the medical person on the 3 day appt didn't do it right.

and i am keeping my fingers crossed mr. makai has blue eyes
emi's were dark from the get go...
these bad boys, especially in the light look blue
my gma has blue eyes, momo has blue eyes and my "dad" has blue eyes
so we might have a chance!!

tummy time has been going so well
as today was his first day :)
maybe it's his personal cheerleader?!?

i asked her to "watch" him while i got his bath ready

when i walked back to get him, this is what i saw
well similar to this, so i ran and got the camera.

emi hated tummy time, and didn't lift her head like this for a while
cause she preferred screaming her head off, practically suffocating herself.

emi didn't know i was there taking pictures...
i think she was a little embarrassed i caught her "entertaining" him
 
love this picture!

 thank you emi for being such a good big sister!
he obviously adores you at only 3 weeks old :)
now that it's getting closer to noon.
both kids are bathed, dressed and fed, guess that means it's my turn now.

He's so sweet, and Emi's such a great babysitter! I wish I could squeeze them both. You are a lucky girl.
