4 months old

    It's amazing how fast time flies.  The babies are now 4 months old.  They are healthy and growing.  It is Tuesday, September 27, 2011 and we go to the doctor's for 4 month shots.  Phillip is in Pasadena for the week and will be home on the weekend so my mom is going with me.  I hope the babies don't cry too much.  I am excited to see how much they weigh and how much they have grown. 

    Kennedy and Corbin are still being breastfed through bottles.  Corbin sometimes gets a formula bottle.  I have introduced them both to rice cereal.  Corbin likes it much better than Kennedy.  Last night Corbin ate 2 Tablespoons while Kennedy just ate 1/2 a Tablespoon (this is dry and then breastmilk is added).  I have only bought one can of formula (about $20).  We have been using the samples first.  I hope I can get a sample when I go to the doctor today.  I'll have to remember to ask.

     It is also pretty cool that we haven't actually bought any diapers or wipes yet.  My school threw me a diaper/wipe shower when I was pregnant and that was the best thing ever.  Then my friends also have bought diapers for the babies as well.  I wonder how long we can go without having to buy diapers.  They are in 1-2's.  Kennedy could really still be size 1's but we are out.  The size 1-2 comes in handy for a "big" diaper.

   Today, September 27, 2011 Corbin has finally flipped over.  He went to sleep on his tummy and woke up on his back.
