4+ months

I don't have the time to write everthing out in paragraph form so I made a list...I am good at lists and it is faster and I will add pictures as time allows...here is how they are doing.

Logan –
Holding head better…getting less mis-shapen
Standing better
Sitting up better
Smiles all of the time
Waxy ears
Hernia is starting to go away
Red spot going to get bigger before gets smaller
Likes 1 2 3 jump and Yesterday threw him up a little on jump and really enjoyed it
Likes to be upside down
Great eater
Sighs the biggest sighs
Has the saddest little cry that makes me want to cry sometimes
Likes to sleep on his side with his head all the way back
Likes to kick mommy
Sensitive skin…constantly rubbing eyes and forehead
scratches couch
15 lbs 4.5 oz 24.5 inches
learning to not eat during night

Alyssa –
So happy when she wakes up
A bear to get to sleep, but doing better
Likes to fly like a butterfly and be upside down
Likes to grab at mommy’s face and pull her hair
Pulls out her binkie and successfully puts it back in sometimes
Likes cuddling with blanket and taggie
Pulls covers over her head and then cries b/c she can't get it back off
Abs of steel…when she does not want to lay down she holds a nice long crunch or arches her back and pushes with her legs to scoot
Holds her own bottle sometimes
Always seems to need held when mommy is trying to eat
15 lbs 8 oz 24 inches
Bald spot constantly looking around
Messy eater…tries to drink the spoon like a bottle and wants her hands in on the action
Alyssa & mommy learning to have her sleep in her own room
Still very gassy
Dr said teething...and she is blowing bubbles

Both -
Started eating about 3 weeks ago - and high chairs today
They scoot/move around in the beds and on the couch
Starting to get on a schedule
Started going to playgroup
Mommy learned that carrots and sweet potatoes do not wash out in the laundry after getting it on a ton of burp rags and clothes
Starting to try and laugh…succeed once in a while
They are very talkative when they are most happy…just woke up or just fed
I sometimes think they try and imitate some of the silly sounds I make for them
Like to sit on mommy’s lap while she is working
Great at sharing their food...only mommy is still trying to teach them to only share it before they eat it not after…but they are spitting up a lot less than they used to
They are so strong
Mommy makes up all kinds of short little songs to sing to them...Aunt Jenny would be so proud
They get the hick ups a lot less frequently
Most of the time they can drink a full 6oz bottle before they burp
Not very patient
They have the cutest fuzzy hair heads

Now in size 3 diapers and 3-6 clothes

I can't believe how fast they are growing up. Try oxiclean and spray n wash to get the carrots and sweet potatoes out.

They are growing way too fast,a nd look outright adorable in their side by side highchairs! I treat at night by spraying with Oxiclean spray and water and the orange usually comes out in the next wash. Good luck!
