6 Month Check-up (actually 7)...

The twins went to the Dr. last Monday (I have been too busy to post) for their six month checkup. It was actually more like 7 months, because I waited too late to schedule their appointments. Landon weighed 16 lbs. 8 oz. and was 25 1/2 inches long. Kinsley weighed 14 lbs. 4 oz. and was 25 inches long. They are only in about the 10th and 15th percentiles (they are tiny for their age), but they are growing at an appropriate rate for them being preemies. She was a little concerned with Landon because he grew so fast and now he is slacking off, but I reminded her that he is a lot more active now and she agreed that, that was probably the reason. She said we would just keep watching him. They got 3 shots each and only cried for a few seconds. Kinsley cried longer than Landon because she was asleep when they started poking her. Landon is very close to crawling, he now gets up on his hands and knees. I suspect he will be crawling by the end of the week. Kinsley is starting to cut her teeth I believe because she is starting to be very whiny. They spent the night with Nana for the first time Saturday night and they were such good babies for her. I did miss them very much though.
