Rowan and Kieran had their 4 month checkup this past Thursday. Our munchkins are round, plump and healthy. It amazes me to think we have been caring for two babies for four months now. Surprisingly for me the time has flown, Patrick on the other hand feels as if it has been four years. Before the doctor visit Veronica and I were talking on the phone, she proclaimed me brave for taking both boys to the doctor alone. I of course thought nothing of this, I can't imagine not having to do everything twice. Well this visit I wished I had another pair of hands, Kieran had a meltdown while being weighed. He started to scream bloody murder to the point he was turning blue. Rowan decided to chime in with his equally loud screams. There was nothing I could do, I couldn't console both at the same time. It got so bad the doctor had to call in a nurse to pick up Rowan. It's funny how each boy ignores the others normal cries, but a bloody murder cry apparently requires the other to chime in. When we walked out after 40 minutes the entire office was backed up and people were actually looking out of their exam rooms to see what was going on. I sheepishly apologized and quickly exited the office. Their weights are excellent, but I am not sure the lengths are correct, since the screaming seemed to make everyone nervous.
Kieran weighs 13 pounds 8 ounces with a length of 24 3/4 inches
Rowan weighs 15 pounds 4 ounces with a length of 24 1/2 inches
The boys have changed so much in the past four months, they no longer eat, poop, sleep. Instead finding ample time to play, eat, poop and sleep. Entertaining them has proven to be more difficult, they know my bag of tricks now and pretty much let me know when they want something more. The doctor gave me the okay to try the exersaucer and jumpy. So two more circuits have been added to our daily baby curves workout.
