9 Months

 We're on the charts! :) We took the twins in for the 9 month appt today.  Nick screamed the whole time and they didn't even have shots today! They look great and are on the border of normal for their age, so considering they were about 6 weeks premature that's pretty darn good! With them getting sick they had a disadvantage in the weight gain dept, so the pediatrician really wants us to plump them up. They'll have solids 3 times a day (increased from twice), and now we are to add an entire extra scoop of formula to what the "normal" ratio would be. As if we weren't poor enough trying to keep up as it is! Lol. In the next couple months things they should be doing are crawling (even just an army crawl) and pulling themselves up to furniture. I still can't believe we're approaching one year. It blows my mind. Better start planning their big birthday bash!!
 Nickolas's Weight: 15 lbs 9 oz >5%
              Height: 26 3/4" 10%
              Head Circ: 45 cm 50%
 Tristan's Weight: 14 lbs 13 oz >5%
             Height: 26 1/2" 5%
             Head Circ: 45 cm 50%
Tristan and Nickolas are great buds. They love to play together, steal toys from each other, Nick loves to steal Tristan's binkie, Tristan loves to remind Nick where the diapers and wipes are kept. :) Funniest of all, they love when Josh will sit one on top of the other if they're both acting cranky. They both think its pretty funny!
And here's Joey at 9 months. She was so proud of herself.

Oh my goodness!! I can't believe they are almost one either, holy cow. That's great that they are doing so well (besides having to add extra expensive formula).

You have the cutest little kids, I just love their darling little faces! That picture of Joey at 9 months is sooo cute!

I can't believe how much they've grown...not just in size, but in ability, too! They are so darling! Guess it's a good thing that I got more formula coupons in the mail today!

Um, did you get one of their head circumferences wrong? One says 25 and the other 45. I don't think they have that big of a difference ;) They're so stinkin cute!

I can't believe they are already nine months old. That seems crazy! They have the cutest, biggest smiles!! What kind of formula do they take? I have two cans of Similac that came in the mail one day (don't ask me why), so you are welcome to it if it will help.

You have darling kiddos!

Jana, we use Similac, I would love to take them off your hands. :)
Kaela, thanks for pointing that out, just a typo. They are both 45 cm. Fixed it. :) When are you going to start a blog?!?!
