ah yes, we are so neglectful....

Logan's found his fingers and loooooves them. He will pull out the paci, just to get a nibble.
Connor being the big boy and holding his bottle. We are still working, but he is getting good.
So now we are six (months that is).
We saw our new pediatrician on Tuesday and she was wonderful. We love her already. the boys weights were: Logan-11lb 3 oz and Connor 12 1/2 lb. I would have thought Connor would weigh more (he feels like a moose next to Logan) but he wasnt. Anyway, obviously the boys were way off the chart for a normal 6 month old. When we adjust thier age (6 months-12 weeks early) they are technically only 3 months old. For a normal 3 month old, Logan fell in the 10th % for his peer group in weight and 50% for head measurement. Connor was in the 25th% for weight and 50% for head. For length, they were both in the 25th%. Logan was 23 in long, and Connor was 23 1/4 in long.
We are havign Fist Steps Early Intervention come out on Tuesday the 1 of August to do an evaluation on the boys and see where they are cognitively and physically and see if they need therapy. Both boys were started on Zantac for reflux twice a day. They both got 5 shots and the oral rotovirus vaccine. They have been very cranky since. We have to turn around in 6 weeks and do it all over again. (they missed the 4 month inj due to ear infections).
No solid food just yet. Not till they are at thier adjusted 4 month mark. This gives us time to get working on upper body control.
So for now, they boys are doing great. I will try to post more pics later. Connor has taken to sucking his thumb which is soooo cute. Logan prefers his middle fingers. Hopefully I can catch those.
