Happy 4 month birthday Evie and Ramsey!!!
We went to the doctor today for their 4 month checkup. They had their shots again and really didn't like them this time. They both started crying when the nurse held their legs down, i guess they knew what was coming.
Ramsey and Evie are in the 50th percentile for everything, so they are moving up. I think they were in the 20th at their 2 month.
Ramsey
12 pds
23 inches
40 cm head
Evie
12 pds
23 1/4 inches
39 cm head
Evie has caught up to her sister!!
They are catching up to their developmental age!
He wasn't as concerned as we were about Evies head. He said to make her lay on her right side and that might help. If it is not better by her 6 mth then they will do a xray of her skull. She will turn her head both directions so he is not concerned that she has torticollis. We go to physical therapy again next week so we will let you know how that goes.
He told us to start trying cereal so that should be messy and fun! Then start with fruits and veggies every other day if they want them, if not try later
What we are doing now...
Sleeping 10-12 hours at night (they love sleep like their mom and dad)
eat 5 ozs every four hours
We changed them to Nestle Goodstart and don't have to use the preemie formula anymore, Thank goodness, it was expensive!!
They are staying up after they eat for about 1-1/2 hours and when they start to get fussy, I either put them in a swing or in the afternoon, in their crib. They take a 1 1/2- 3 hour afternoon nap, which is good for me
They still love to be swaddled
Finally wearing size 1 diapers, 0-3 mth and 3 mth clothes
smiling, talking and laughing
Ramsey likes to lay on her tummy and can roll over
Evie likes to lay on her back
Evie loves sitting in her bouncy and talking to her lion and monkey
Ramsey loves to play on their mat and hit and grab toys
Ramsey gives herself hickeys on her arm and drools all over herself
Evie holds her hands and puts them in her mouth
They both like their bumbos, which has helped with Evies head control since every time we try to lay her on her tummy her face stays flat on the floor, haha
They both love to stand up, Evie likes to jump up and down and Ramsey likes to be pulled up from the floor by her hands and then stands up.
They are starting to watch and smile at each other and every time you put them on their mat they hold hands or lock arms :)
They watch Maddie and laugh at her when she is in their room.
They don't like to have their fingernails clipped or nose suctioned( i don't really like to do that one, haha)
A little TMI for you...they go to the bathroom at the same time. At least i can get the stinkys done with all at once, hahaha The first of many quirky twin things i guess
That is all i can think of for now.
Thanks for checking on us:)
