4 months!

Wow how time flies! I'm slowly becoming an old person by using all the age-old sayings but it's so true! The babies are already 4 months and had a great Doctor's check up today. Chunky Charlie weighs 15 pounds and Chubby Catherine isn't far behind at 13 pounds 5 ounces. They've both nearly doubled their birth weight! Both babies are right on track and very similar developmentally. They smile, giggle and love to grab things with their hands.
 Charlie, aka "Bubba" is a very content baby, although he NEVER misses a meal! We've started him on rice cereal to fill up his tummy and he opens his mouth for more when he sees the spoon. He is fine just laying on the floor with toys but isn't a fan of tummy time since he's got a big head to support. All he wants for Christmas is some boy time!
Catherine or "Cat girl" as I like to call her is my little dainty baby. She is very quiet most of the time, but is particular about her bottle. It has to be just the right temperature or she will fuss. She is also our only thumb sucker so she puts herself to sleep anytime and anywhere. She loves to smile and watch her sisters as well as listen to story time. All she wants for Christmas is more hair so she can wear pigtails.
