11/16/09 Update: Saw the pediatrician today! Bryce now weighs 13lbs 8oz & measures 23 3/4" and Benjamin weighs 14lbs 4oz & measures 24 1/4". (Two months ago, Bryce weighed 9lbs 9oz & measured 21 7/8" and Benjamin weighed 11lbs & measured 22 5/8")
------------------------------------------------
My boys are getting so big! Tomorrow we have our 4-month checkup and we'll find out how much they weigh, but we think they're at about 13 lbs now. We're at a point where each day they seem to be learning something new. They are so alert of their surroundings now, and it's so fun to watch their eyes follow everything they see or hear.
At four months, the boys:
-are just about to roll over...they still get stuck on their sides.
-started wearing size 2 diapers this week!
-are wearing mostly size 6 clothing.
-can laugh out loud (the best sound in the world!)...and sometimes, I still catch Bryce laughing in his sleep.
-drink 6 3/4 ounces every 3 hours during the day...a couple of times, they've drunk 8 to 9 ounces!
-are constantly sticking their fists (and anything they can grab a hold of) into their mouths and drooling all over it.
-are constantly blowing and spitting bubbles...they think it's funny. (The other day at about 5am, I woke up to sounds coming from the baby monitor of Benjamin blowing bubbles in his crib. He was simply entertaining himself until it was time to eat.)
-are starting to be able to grab and hold things, like a rattle, and shake it.
-are noticeably growing more hair...especially Ben!
-constantly babble and mumble...sometimes to each other. (I guess this is their special secret language.)
-are showing jealousy by crying...particularly, when one sees the other being held or carried around while he himself is not.
-can scream SO loud!
That's all I can think of right now, so here is their 4 month picture...
4 monkeys = 4 months
4 days old...
3 monkeys = 3 months
2 months...
1 month...
