Back To The Doctors Office

Last week it was the big kids turn to get weighed and measured.  Esme and Chan had their 5 and 3 year old check ups with Dr Meurs and both passed just fine.  Esme was cleared for kindergarten and got all her paperwork signed.  Chan also got all his preschool paperwork completed.  And the best part was - no shots!  Esme weighed in at 48# (82%) and 44.5" (71%).  Chan was 31.5# (43%) and 37" (30%).  Next visit in another year for each kiddo!

The twins are doing well too.  Poppy continues to coo and smile a lot but Eve is still very serious.  She definitely has the Elvis smile down and will give you a opened mouth smile only every once in awhile.  You REALLY have to work at it with her.  They're both nursing fine but Poppy could stay on all day long and Eve won't.  That might explain why Eve is the thinner one thus far but I'm working on that.  Eve loves to stretch out and push off.  She's even rolled over a few times while doing tummy time.  She also loves to suck her first so I'm curious if she'll be a thumb sucker like Esme.  Poppy sucks at her first too but not as much as Eve.  

Listening to Dr Meurs tell them all about healthy living.  

Just chillin at home with the little girls.

Daddy doing what he does best with the girls.

Poppy, the next Dumbo ;)

Two of a kind.

Chan went on his first yellow bus ride for a field trip to the Panaewa Zoo.

He was SUPER excited!

This is how we protect the babies when they fall asleep on the floor.  Otherwise they'll get mowed over by the big kids.  

Personality shot.

Crazy but this is how momma burps two babies at once.

Esme and Eve again :)

Daddy and the kids.

Pretty in pinks.

When all else fails and neither baby can be calmed down, sitting in the rocking chair helps.

Chan and Poppy.
