4 Months Old!

My little girls are 4 months old today. We had our pediatrician check-up yesterday - each had to have three shots and an oral vaccination so they were not happy campers. The good news is that they both checked out great and the doctor applauded Rob and I since both girls are doing so well and gaining weight steadily.

Caroline:
Weight - 10lbs, 14.5 oz; 5th % on non adjusted charts
Length - 23 inches; 10th % non adjusted charts

Olivia:
Weight - 12lbs, 8oz; 25th% non adjusted
Lenth - 23.5 inches; 25th% non adjusted

Because the girls are at good weights now, we were approved to discontinue the high calorie preemie formula and start any regular formula of our choice. This is great because that other stuff only came in one small size (we went through one can in a little over one day) and was sooooo expensive! We also discussed Caroline's crying fits while eating and the pediatrician suspects she has reflux so prescribed her some medication to be taken three times a day to help relieve her of the pain. Hopefully this will help her eat faster and therefore eat more in one sitting so she can catch up to her sister. Olivia still has a heart murmur and has a follow up appointment with a Cardiologist tomorrow at Childrens Memorial Hospital for another echocardiogram. We're hoping this hole still closes on its own in time and that it does not become a life long issue.

My mom went home yesterday :( and she will definitely be missed! Thanks for your help Grandma Karen!
