Is it crazy that I am already thinking of what I want to do for their 1st birthday? I mean...it will be here in no time!
I started this post right close to the 12th...just now getting around to finishing. I am surprised at how much can change in just a few days. (Changes in blue.)
The biggest (read hardest) thing that has happened in the past month has been going back to work. Hard for the babies? No. Hard for me? Yes. They are thriving. They get to spend 3 days a week with my mom...Tootie (at least for now), spend 1 day with Daddy, and spend another day with a college-age family friend (college-age friend sent a text saying she can't do it anymore...so we will be looking for someone else...bummer). The babies are loved dearly by all parties involved and the best part is that we don't have to load up the car and make a trip anywhere in the morning.
So anyway...here is the update.
Caroline~
H: 23 inches (12%)
W: 12 pounds 5 ounces (40%)
HC: 41 cm (50%)
Wearing 0-3m clothes and a few 3-6m.
Rolling over like crazy. Front to back, back to front. Either way. She's got it.
Great neck and back strength.
Likes to sleep on her tummy...we had to give up rolling her back over...if not we would be doing it every 5 seconds.
Still loves to suck her fingers. Partial to any combo which includes the middle finger.
Is a very happy/smiley baby.
Loves to dance with Daddy.
Has figured out how to splash in the tub. Water water everywhere. On purpose.
Parker~
H: 24 inches (25%)
W: 12 pounds 10 ounces (12%)
HC: 42 1/4 cm (55%)
Wearing 0-3m and 3-6m clothes. 0-3m PJs are outta here...too short.
Has rolled over maybe 1-2 times...but is super close to getting it. Beginning to find him on his side in his crib. (Has the rolling over figured out...finally!)
Very talkative and has even laughed a few times. Poppie knows the trick.
Loves his momma.
Is the "Spit-Up King". In fact he spit up 3 times while at the 4 month check-up which led to...
Trying a new formula (Nutramigen) for the spit-up in addition to the Prevacid. If we don't see an improvement, Dr. B would like for us to add Reglan to empty his stomach faster. Hopefully the formula will work. (We tried the new formula...things were even worse. Back the to the Similac RS...still having issues...but I really don't want to add the Reglan. We may try the Nutramigen one more time...but add rice cereal to the bottle...which I also didn't want to do...but desperate times...desperate measures right?)
Both of the twins~
Love going for walks in the Bjorns. (Looking forward to cooler temps and no mosquitoes!)
Love bathtime (once they are in the tub).
Are sleeping like champs (knock on wood somewhere please). They are usually down between 9-10pm and sleep until somewhere around 8am...give or take.
Like Sesame Street...particularly the monsters.

Yay! Can't wait to *finally* meet them in a few weeks.
Oh my goodness!! I love the last picture of both of them!! We call Landry our spit up king and our pedi says that some babies just spit more than others and as long as his Prevacid is working to keep down the reflux and he's gaining weight they aren't to worried about it.
Precious, as usual!
