Sylvia is 3 weeks old!!

Today marked Sylvia's 3-week birthday. It's hard for us to believe that it's been 21 days that we've been responsible for this tiny little person. She's definitely a different baby than she was 3 weeks ago. She was strong from the beginning, but her mini-pushups have only gotten more impressive, and we can't even really give her 'tummy time' anymore because she immediately just rolls over. Speaking of her tummy, she's developed a sizable gut for such a small person! It seems to give her some distress, and she sure does makes sure that we hear all about it! She's also deeply annoyed unless at least one of her parents is totally incapacitated in an effort to keep her happy, and she's very hard to fool.

Thanks to our friend Tess who has a food scale, we can estimate that as of this evening Sylvia weighed 8 pounds, 2 ounces, which would represent a 12-ounce gain over 10.5 days, which is plenty.
