Starvin' Marvin isn't really starvin'

Tate had her 2 week check up today and here are the latest stats:

Weight 8 lbs 11 oz
Length 20 inches

Why is this significant? Because just 10 short days ago, my precious piranha weighed 7 lbs 10 oz. She's gained 17 oz in 10 days!! She doesn't have a bottle often but when she does, she sucks down 4 oz in an instant and still throws a fit like she's starving. Doc says this might be a little much so the piranha has to cut it back to 3 oz or less. Two weeks old and already on a diet. Nice.

(at 2 weeks, the little one is already holding up her head! You're such a big girl!)
