4 Months Old!!

Tummy Time

Can you believe it’s been 4 months already? I can’t! We had our 4 month doctor checkup yesterday. Everyone was great! Doctor Lee even commented that they are very good natured and happy babies. Both Alex and Logan were in good moods and Nick (because he didn't take a nap before we went) was crying while the nurse was taking his measurements. He finally slept while she did the other two and then was happy again by the time the doctor came in. Here are their new stats:

Alex: 13 lbs 4 oz. and 25.25 inches long
Logan: 12 lbs 9.5 oz and 24.5 inches long
Nick: 14 lbs 3 oz and 24.5 inches long

Both Alex and Logan have had some cradle cap going on for a while. She said it will go away on its own and not to worry. We also asked about Logan and his eating habits. He used to eat twice as slow as his brothers. Now he eats at about the same pace, but doesn’t eat as much. Again, she said she wasn’t concerned since his growth trend is good. Otherwise, she didn’t hear any heart murmurs in Alex or Logan and Nick’s knee doesn’t pop as much as it used to (although she said if it’s still popping at our next visit, we might visit a specialist, just in case).

I was happy to be able to answer yes to all the questions they asked about the boys’ development. They’re laughing and holding their heads up and talking and blowing bubbles. They sleep on average 6 hours a night before they wake up for their early morning snack and then back to bed for a couple of hours. Some days they sleep longer and yesterday they even skipped their early morning feeding! We might try moving them into their own cribs here soon. Not sure if it will help, but maybe they’ll sleep a little longer that way.

Adam is in reading to the boys now and they’re so cute, and attentive!!

Story Time

Stay tuned for another post this week… Cousin Sydney turns three this week and we have pictures from the first time she met the boys!
