Three months old

Qi Yu is three month old today. She is growing very well, already can turn over so mummy no longer has the luxury of lying her anywhere to my convenient unattended. Qi Yu is a very expressive girl. In such a young age, her facial expression is so rich, she will "forewarn" us her next step through her facial expression so by looking at her expression we can kinda of guess what she want and whether she is going to smile or cry.
I don't think she has put on much weight this month because ever since I starts working she isn't drinking much. At birth, she weighs 3.65kg, at one month, she weigh 4.7kg and on two month she weigh 5.9kg. I think now is only slightly more than 6kg. Her milk intake during the day time range between 160ml to 220ml in total. In certain day, she may drink up to 260ml but is a rare occasion. And it takes so many feed for her to finish the amount. Mummy has so much expressed milk stored in the fridge!
Qi Yu does not like us to hold her in a lying down position, she loves the sit up position where she can see things around her. Even when in her car seat or pram, she will attempt to lift up her head from the seat. When I put her on the stomach, she can hold her head so high to look around her environment.
She can respond to people calling her. When heard people calling her name, she will turn her head to the direction. She is especially responsive to her jiejie, Qi Ning. Her eyes will be following Qi Ning when Qi Ning is playing around her. I think she is beginning to discover her own voice as she is starting to scream this few days.
Such joy to see the little one growing day by day!
