Update On The Girls: 4 Months

The days are going by so quickly here! We are grateful for happy, healthy 4 month olds!!!!

Adelyn at 4 Months:

Emery at 4 Months:

Some facts from the girl's fourth month of life:
-Wearing 3-6 Month clothes.
-Wearing Size 2 diapers.
-Eating 5 times per day. They take a 6 ounce bottle at every feeding. They still have pumped breastmilk in their bottles.
-They are sleeping in their crib at night and for all naps. They go down for the night at around 7:00pm and don't wake up until 7:00am. They nap 3 times per day.
-Doing well on the eat/play/sleep routine!

Random things we don't want to forget:

-Both girls are rolling from belly to back. Emery went through a short stage where she was trying to roll all night long. Oh my goodness, it was an exhausting few nights.

-They sit very well in their bumbo chairs. Usually they either sit face to face and stare at each other, or they sit in their activity gym and play with toys.

-They are starting to really enjoy tummy time and their necks and arms are getting strong!
-Emery was a zebra and Adelyn was a giraffe for Halloween. We went to the fall festival at church and trick-or-treated in the neighborhood.

-The family celebrated Thanksgiving at Grammy and Champ's house. Both girls were sweet, cranky, and well-loved. :)

-As of a few days ago, they are giving wonderfully slobbery open mouth kisses.

Happy (late) Halloween!

We had a great Halloween! Our neighborhood went all out, and everyone had a wonderful time. Benton didn't really know what was going on, but he knew it was something different and fun. :) My parents, Carl, and Whitney stayed at our house to watch the girls and hand out candy, and Landon and I took Benton around our neighborhood. Once we were finished making our rounds, we headed back to the house to hand out candy for the rest of the evening. Benton loved handing out candy and kept dancing on the porch in between trick-or-treaters...so cute!

We dressed the kids up as their "monthly animal," which is the stuffed animal that we take their picture with every month. As much as I wanted to do something really fun with all the kids and their costumes, we knew that staying simple was better this year.

Benton was a monkey (who DID NOT want his picture taken).
Adelyn was a giraffe.
Emery was a zebra.
