Jeffrey and I took the girls Christmas Eve for their 6 month check up. Nothing says Merry Christmas like 4 shots... Poor things. It worked out fine. We were in and out in about 30 minutes, and they were not cranky at all.
Dr. Green said they sounded better. The wheezing is gone but the cough is still lingering. They got their regular shots along with a flu shot. Most of you with children know that the first flu shot comes in 2 doses. Now normally this would be fine but I feel like I'm at the doctor's office all the time as it is. I discussed this with the nurse, and we decided that it would be fine to wait to give the 2nd flu shot with their RSV shot in February since they get their RSV shots at the beginning of the month, it won't be time to give the flu shot at the January appointment. Poor things are getting a shot every time they turn around.
They are growing!! Carlee weighed 15 lbs 10 1/2 ozs and Kalee weighed 16 lbs 4 ozs. Both were in the 50%. Carlee was 24 1/2 inches and Kalee was 23 3/4 inches. They fell only in the 3-5% in length.
We have been trying to feed them some cereal but they haven't acted all that interested just yet. Dr. Green said we could start introducing some baby food. They are still drinking 7 ozs of milk every 5 hours. They eat at 7 am, 12 pm, 5 pm and 10 pm. We stick pretty firm to that schedule.
They are wearing 3-6 month clothes and size 2 diapers. Both are trying to sit up by themselves but both still need their bumbo. They are liking their toys more and more. They are rolling all over the place. We can put them in the floor and before we know it they are across the room.
We are enjoying watching them grow!! I'm sure they will be crawling before I know it.....
