We tried feeding peas to the twins tonight and the verdict was . . . . meh. Neither of them really liked them. But too bad cause we're doing it again tomorrow! HAHAHA.
Results from the pediatician today: Ian is 13 pounds and 11 ounces, Chloe is 13 pounds and 3.5 ounces. They are both developing very well and go back to the doc in 3 months. More shots today, but no more until they hit 12 months. Yay!
Kaylie came with us today but she is moving in less than 10 days, we will miss you and your help going to the doctor!

Six Month Update
So the twins are almost six months old now. I can't believe how fast they are growing up! We go to the doc next week for more shots and a check up.
Brian went to Japan for 2 weeks and was traveling in Taiwan when the magnitude 8.9 earthquake hit Japan. Thankfully he made it home only 1 day later than scheduled. All of our friends in Japan are also ok. Congrats to Erica for getting married!!
After Brian came home, we decided to try feeding rice cereal to the twins. We mix a tablespoon of the cereal with 2 ounces of breastmilk. Ian took to it right away. He would open his mouth as soon as the spoon came close. Chloe wasn't sure at first, but the next day she had really improved. She is very intent on holding a spoon herself and making sure it stays in her mouth. She is ready to feed herself apparently. After we see the doc next week, we'll probably get advice about trying to introduce other solid foods. Can you believe I'm still breastfeeding?
Ian has started "talking" to us. Mostly "mahbahbahmah" sounds! Chloe has figured out how to scream bloody murder, so that is her new obsession. Both of them really enjoy looking at each other and smiling.
More updates soon!
