8 months and a weight check!

Today, Alden and Carson are 8 months old. We went back for a weight check today at the pediatrician because 2 weeks ago their growth curves (in particularly Carson's) were headed a little more sideways than up. So, Dr. K asked us to double their solid food during these past two weeks and see what happens.

Carson
Between months 5 and 6 = gained 4 oz
Between months 6 and 7 = gained one pound (started solids)
In the last two weeks = gained almost one pound
Currently weighing in a 13 pounds 1o oz.

Alden
Between months 5 and 6 = gained 8 oz
Between months 6 and 7 = gained one pound (started solids)
In the last two weeks = gained almost one pound
Currently weighing in at 14 pounds 4 oz These solids are working!!!!!
They now each weigh exactly 10 pounds more than their birthweight.

Alden's new thing is his tongue - he has it out all the time!
