The twins went to the Dr. last week. They are 4 months already!! Here are the stats:

• 25 3/4 inches
• Head Circumference: 16 inches
• smiles
• laughs
• coos
• sometimes sucks his thumb
• does not roll over yet
• will not push up yet
• does not like to take naps in his crib!
• started eating rice cereal June 24th
• Dr. says he will be long and thin, feed him as much as he wants, whenever he wants

Vanessa:

• 10 pounds 15 ounces (5th percentile)
• 23 inches
• head circumference: 16 inches
• smiles
• laughs
• coos
• rolled over from back to tummy June 27th and from tummy to back
• pushes up when on her tummy
• sucks her thumb
• teething, may be getting a tooth on the side
• likes to nap in her crib

Al in all they are both doing very good. They got 3 shots again this time. Nicholas developed a fever that night and had me up about 5 times. Poor baby! Vanessa didn't seem to have any reaction.

Sarah also saw the Dr. becuase she said her ear hurt. I am never sure if she is just looking for attention or not, so since we were going there anyway, I had him look at it. He said her ears were clear, thank goodness!

Sarah "graduates" from preschool this coming Tuesday. It is at a park near us. Should be very cute! They have been practising their songs. Sarah also has started swim lessons. She seems to like it. She also is going camping this summer with Nanny (aunt Donna) and Uncle Randy. So her summer is booking up. She starts kindergarten August 26th. I will take that day off work because I want to drop her off and pick her up from school. There also an orientation for kindergarten parents. And the twins have their 6 month check-up that day. It will be a busy day!
