We had a doctor's visit today! The girls are so darn big big big!!
Olivia weighs in at 12 lbs 14 oz.
Sarah weighs in at 12 lbs 9 oz. She has just about TRIPLED her birth weight!!!!
It was a fairly uneventful visit. They both had to get 4 shots though which was pitiful!!
The doc said Olivia's head is too flat in the back and if it's still that flat around 6-9 months then he would refer us to a specialist. Basically she'd have to get a helmet that like shapes her head. It's purely cosmetic and not all insurances cover it AND it would just be pitiful! So we shall see.
We also asked about the fact that they are spitting up ALOT! He said to add some rice cereal to the formula and that it should help. He also said their growth looks fine and they are too old for the really bad problems that could be causing the spit up. So basically it's not a big deal other than the mess. So that was comforting!
Well Ave and Rosa want to go swimming, so I will update more later!
The miracle of life! Here we are parents of twin girls Sarah and Olivia born Jan 16. Welcome to our adventure of love, hope, and joy! We will update as much as we can about our beautiful girls and their progress in life!
A new Wickerbaby is on the way!

whoop whoop whoop whoop whoop! You go girls!
Hey, good to hear the girls are growing so well!
I just wanted to say that we have a friend in Portland who had to get a helmet for their baby boy (not for exactly the same reason but similar), so we've been following their progress. It's hard to deal with putting your kid in a helmet but things haven't been all bad, either.
