November 18^th: Welcome to the wild world of Bottle Feeding Competition. The competitors are Mommy, Pop Rock and Grammy. Mommy is the seasoned profession where Pop Rock and Grammy are out of retirement for the games. The competition is steep, and the stakes are serious (getting Duke off the feeding tube). Grammy came out of the gates with her first feed at 17 ml. Pop Rock made a decent showing at 16 ml, followed by a meger 6 ml, but then he smoked Grammy with a fine showing of 26 ml. The winner….Mommy with 52 ml today. If you don’t believe me you can ask the occupational therapist who was here to work with me on eating and couldn’t believe it either. Now the rest of the day Duke was recovering from the drinking and tummy time.

I like to move my arms and legs...so grammy is safe
