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.

Little fluffy bums..........



Connor left Logan right.

We have officialy begun out cloth diapering journey. They arrived in the mail today and we washed and are wearing. We arent up and running full time yet, but as I can buy a little here and there, should have a supply soon enough. Things went great tonight. No leaks. WE put on disposables for the night until we get the better diapers for night time. They looked too cute. There are so many wonderful choices out there now, and designer diaps at that!! They range from the old fashioned (we used oldfashioned here with a modern waterproof wrap) to new gore-tex and PUL all in one diaps in fashion prints. I wish I had known more about this before they were born and we probably would have started out. Korrie has been watching Ebay with me to buy diapers. It is fun. Who would have thought fashionable bums!!! This is all for now.Enjoy my little fluffy bums!

Logi and more Logi

Logan is on the left

Jess, I couldnt resist the title!

These little shirts are from Auntie Alexandra in New Jersey. She sent them when the boys were just born and they could have completely covered up in them. Now they fill them out so nicely!

Ears are acting up again, but we are in the process of switching pediatricians, so we have to wait a couple days to get in. We just medicate for pain. Both must be growing again because they are eating like piggies and sleeping a great deal. This weekend, Logan slept through the night twice.

We spent the weekend at the campground and the boys went tooling around on the golf cart with me. We had fun and a lot of fresh air.

Will update more later...
