Her chubby brother went from 8lbs 10oz to an overwhelming 12 lbs 8oz. We couldn't believe how big he got! The doctor was very happy with their size and how much they are eating and how they are doing ... She did mention that we will probably start cereal at 4 months. That should be interesting ...
Then they got their first shots! Oh, that was not fun to watch! They did ok when they got them... some crying and what not, but we gave them tylenol and once they were back in their car seats they went to sleep. After we got home, we fed them, they were a little fussy, but then they went to sleep. And about 2 hours later, all hell broke loose. Jake started screaming bloody murder. I've never heard him yell like that in my life. And the only thing that would console him was me holding him. He would finally fall asleep on my belly, I would try to put him down, and he would start screaming again. Not fun. And she was doing the same thing with her dad. Finally Eric brought both swings upstairs, and Hailey went right to sleep. Jake wouldn't calm down, so I decided to change his diaper. Well, needless to say, after a HUGE poop, he wasn't crying anymore. Suddenly, he was all smiles.
So by 9pm, everyone seemed to calm down and pretty much go back to normal. Shots are no fun. But I know they are necessary. I'm just glad they seem to be back to themselves now. I don't know what women do with colicky babies, cause I couldn't handle them crying for 15 minutes, much less all day and all night! God bless all you women that deal with that!
Anyway, here are some new pictures. Look how fat Jake is!
And here is Dad with his number one Mets Fan! No, Jake wasn't really into this picture taking session.
And here are Jake and Hailey in the onesie that Aunt Chrissy bought them. They are so damn cute!
