Time for oatmeal:)

We had the girls' four month doctor appointment yesterday (they are actually 4 1/2 months) and were excited to hear that the girls were looking fabulous and...

...we get to start them on oatmeal!!! So excited for this next stage in their lives. I ran to Target last night to pick up some oatmeal, rice cereal, and baby food to start out with. Dr. Schaefer said we can do rice or oatmeal and everything that I read online showed that most babies either hate rice cereal or get super constipated with it, so we decided to start with oatmeal. Dad held Adalyn and I had Paisley and we sat at the table for the first feeding, which was pretty funny. The girls didn't seem to like it a whole lot and most of it just ran down their faces, so we'll keep trying and incorporating some new foods every few days. They suggest we wait 3 days between each to ensure they aren't allergic to any of them.

They are also doing really well both in size and development. Adalyn weighs 15 lbs and 12 oz now and Paisley is 15 lbs and 2 oz. Adalyn is in the 75th percentile for weight and Paisley is in the 50-75th percentile. Our little peanuts are doing so well...we are so lucky:)
