1 Month Check Up and Pictures

I can't believe that the twins are almost a month old already! This month has really gone by fast. We took the twins to the doctor today for their one month check up - and they are doing really well!

Zoe is now 6 lbs. 9 oz. - basically a small newborn baby size now. Bailey is now 9 lbs. 8 oz. - so he's now 3 lbs. bigger than his sister! They don't have to go back for a check up for another month, when they are supposed to get their first set of shots. But the doctor wants to delay their first shots by a month, so that Zoe can get "some meat on her" for her needles.

In other good news, my blood pressure is now back to normal - without medication. Yay!

Also, today was the first full day that we were able to tandem nurse. It's taken us a month, but we've finally gotten the hang of it. And Bailey has now outgrown his newborn clothes and is into 3 month outfits - Zoe on the other hand has FINALLY outgrown her preemie clothing...and is now in newborn clothes!!

And now for what everyone has been waiting for, some cute pictures!



This picture shows all three kids born on the same day - Bailey, Zoe and their cousin Leah.

Bailey is really good at holding his head up - at 3 weeks! This day, he also rolled over...seems a bit early for a baby.




And my favourite picture...the twins snuggling during their nap.
