2 months old! - Shots, baby stats & diapers galore!

I seriously don't know where the time is going!!!! Our beautiful twinnies are two months old today! We had their well checks and vaccines done at the pediatrician's this morning. Loved their little bandaids! Both babies are doing amazing and growing really well considering how tiny they were. Both were deemed perfectly healthy and don't need to return until four months. They took their shots like total champs, the nurse was impressed. She was devastated to have to give them their shots because they're so tiny still, but she was really relieved when they only cried for several seconds and were done. Both babies are now eating almost four ounces every two to four hours. Both are awake a little more everyday and dirty diapers like you wouldn't believe. Holy diapers! Like, a whole package per day. Yes...32 diapers in 24 hrs! We're keeping them on the soy formula til they're one year old. Hopefully they'll have outgrown their milk protein intolerance or allergy by then.





Cameron weighed in at 8 lbs 11 oz and 20.6 inches long! When we came home from the hospital he had dropped below 5 lbs. He falls in the 10-25 percentiles for weight, height and head circumference like Claire. But, our pediatrician assured us that is very normal for twins. He has changed a ton and is such a happy boy most of the time. He loves to cuddle, look around, watch the ceiling fan and tv, have his head and feet rubbed, and has been cooing for a couple weeks now. Nothing better than the sound of cooing babies!! He smiles a lot when you talk to him and has the biggest blue eyes. His sweet little face melts our hearts! My favorite thing about him is that he makes the most hilarious and adorable goat noises when waking up. He sounds JUST like a goat, not kidding. He startled me one night and had me thinking for a split second that there was a goat in my front room, lol.




Claire weighed in at 8 lbs 5.5 oz and 20.1 inches long! She has doubled her birth weight in only two months, so great! Her face has realllly chubbed up and she's insanely cute. She has started smiling more and started cooing this past week. She likes the mobile more and more everyday, and has recently discovered that she is quite entertained by watching brother flap his arms around while he's playing next to her. She often chews on his mitts instead of her own when they're laying next to each other, he he. She is still our calm, sweet, sleepy baby girl. However, she has started crying more often and louder when she informs us she needs fed or changed. She also recently started crying tears when she's upset like Cameron, it is THE saddest thing ever. I hate it when they're sad! Tiny tears are the worst! She loves looking at Daddy and lets us kiss her more, he he. She used to limit our kisses by wacking us in the face with her hand, ha ha.
