New Friends and Family

Now that the boys have had their 4 month checkup, Alden and Carson are now allowed to meet more people! Dr. K said as long as people are healthy, they can meet the boys. So, we did a little bit of meet and greet over the past few days. We still haven't ventured out to a restaurant or anything (Mommy and Daddy DO want to enjoy ourselves when we actually go out!).

As of their appointment on Friday, Alden weighs 11 pounds and Carson weighs 10.5 pounds. They are continuing to stay about a half a pound apart as they have pretty much the entire 4 months. Their growth curve is just fine too. So, we are all happy they're doing so well. The Pediatrician does want us to wait until they are six months old (which is like a full term 4 month old) to start rice cereal, and I have to admit we're thankful - not sure we're quite ready for that!

In addition, the boys are now sleeping about 11 hours at night - we are SO thankful and Mommy feels like a new person!!!
