The boys and I had our first solo flight today to their 4 month appointment. Isaac's down to one monitor during the day so that helped and the oxygen tank only came for in cases in the trunk. They are both 25 inches long and Isaac weighed 13 lbs. 3 ounces and Eden weighed 15 lbs. 13 ounces. We also got to meet their new pediatrician, Dr. Brichant, who should have been it from the get go. I like her a lot better and hopefully their won't be any more issues in the future. They also got their shots while they were there. Eden did some kind of babble/scream that convinced the nurse giving the shots that not only had she never heard anything like it, but that she believed he just cursed her out in baby language and then shot her a dirty look. He was pretty fussy after his 3 hour nap but he finally got settled after a 7 ounce bottle and another 1 hour nap and resumed his normal smiling self.



Just in time for me to take him to the chiropractor with me this evening. Isaac went with me yesterday and his evaluation showed sublixations in his neck and sacral area, which makes sense due to his reflux and constipation issues. i don't expect Eden to have the same or at least not as severe, but his birth wasn't as traumatic and I'd like to get him check out just in case.

They officially turned 4 months old on the 28th and Dr. Brichant said we can start trying to spoon them thinned out cereal. Believe it or not, I am really excited about this. I know food will be flung, but I can't wait to see the pictures I get either. :)



This past Saturday we went to Fox's Pizza in Hampton (really good pizza - try the taco pizza - yummm) and then to Worthington Tree Farm. We sacraficed the extra money to get a Fraser Fir. They're not native here so we didn't get to cut one down, but we got a pretty decent one all the same. We decorated it Sunday evening and got a few extra things to put on it Monday as well.



I bought some material yesterday to make the boys some stockings and all we have left to put up is the outside Christmas lights. Christmas with the fam will be at my sister's this year and Joey is super excited because instead of having a big meal, we're all making/bringing finger foods. For anyone who doesn't know him, Joey would live off of finger foods if you let him.

We'll start our Christmas shopping for the boys in the next week or so and already have projects underway for our parents/their grandparents. We're planning on making dog treats again too, but a different kind. Still searching for an ingredient, but we have a substitute in case I can't find it.
