We had our 4 month check up a week early, since the Dr and our vacation schedules conflicted. He said they look fantastic (I know!). The babies got a big thumbs up and three immunizations this time. Poor babies! I hate their little sad faces when the nurse sticks them, like "oh, how could you let her do that?!?!?" The good part was we got to check their weight. Drumroll please... Graham weighs 11 pounds 13 ounces and Kennedy is a whopping 10 pounds 6 ounces! Can you believe our little girl who was 4 pounds weighs that much now?! It's all in her cheeks! The dr also said we could start feeding them cereal if we wanted to. He warned us they may not be ready yet, maybe we'll wait until after the Colorado trip? It's definatley an exciting milestone- (kinda) solid food!
In the meantime, they are keeping us on our toes. They want to play all the time. Both are now reaching out to grab stuff on their playmat, they don't really fit well in their exersaucer/jumper but they like to be in them. We have to stuff towels down in seats to help them. Especially Kennedy! Graham has been rolling over from tummy to back for a while now. Kennedy doesn't do that, but the Dr it's no big deal, some kiddos just don't have the desire to roll onto their tummies (she doesn't like HATES tummy time). They smile all the time and talk to us and each other. We're convinced they're plotting against us already. "What do you want to do tonight Brain?" "What we do every night, Pinky. Try to take over the world!" Or at least our world.
Potato did not really roll over a lot either! He was a laid back baby! They are getting so chubby! I would be nomming on those cheeks all day! I hope u have a great vacation.
