Kamryn & Laityn: 4 Months

The girls are continuing to grow and their personalities are starting to shine! Their adjusted age is about 2.5 months, and they continue to hit their milestones based on their adjusted age.

• After weighing them on our scale, they both are right around 11lbs 3oz

• They are no longer able to fit into their newborn clothes and now wearing 0-3 month. However, the 3-6 month sleepers are starting to fit them quite well, too.

• They talk back to you! (the good kind of back talk).

• The sleeping schedule is getting a little better - knock on wood. They get up once per night somewhere between 3:00-5:00. They have slept through the night a total of 3 times (too bad it wasn't both kids the same night). So, it is getting there.

• They still enjoy their bouncy seats and watching their mobiles.

• Haven't mastered holding their heads yet, but they are getting better.

• Around 6 months we can start trying to feed them cereal if they have enough head control

• One milestone they haven't mastered yet is being able to grab things. We try and work on this, but they haven't really gotten the coordination down yet.

• Both of them have found their fists and suck on them pretty often. 

• We have noticed that Laityn prefers her left hand over her right just by the little things she does. Maybe Dad can finally have a "leftie" in the house like him!

• Going back to work was 10x harder this time around, and to say I'm still adjusting is an understatement. I miss these girls dearly. I am starting my 4th week back tomorrow and it really hasn't gotten any easier leaving them. I just enjoy my weekends with my kids so much so when Monday rolls around its always sort of a bummer to have to leave them again.

Anyways, its amazing to watch them grow and how far they have come since birth. We feel very blessed! We have a couple of weddings coming up in which we will be staying away from home for a couple of days. Could be interesting with all the kiddos in tow!
