2 month checkup

my little guys had a doctor's appointment today and had to get 2 shots each. They both handled it like champs, only crying for a little bit right after the shot. The doctor recommended I give them some Tempra before the appointment to help ease the pain and fight any possible fever from the shots and I think it has made them very sleepy. They last ate at 9:30am and still haven't woken up to eat again. (That's 4.5 hours - a long stretch between feedings for daytime!)

For those of you keeping up with their stats... Though they're both gaining weight, they are still in the pretty low percentile for their age. Their height has stagnated; they haven't grown in height since their last appointment. Dr. Silverstein said that she's not worried (yet) since they are gaining well and have gone up in the percentile standing for weight...

Saro: weight = 4.76kg (10 lbs 8oz) (25th percentile); height = 53 cm
Ari: weight = 4.41kg (9 lbs 12oz) (10th percentile); height = 53.5 cm

Saro, chillin':


The boys going for a walk in their new stroller (thanks Ara Medzbaba!! - we love going for walks now that the weather is nice!). Don't you just love Ari suckin' his paci? hehe.

new pix

it's late... i'm tired, but i'm using this quiet time to catch up on cleaning up, paying bills, and organizing a little. thought i'd quickly post some pix from the photographer we went to on Saturday. These are the raw images, the final image will have Ari & Saro together on a background (all digitally done by a graphic artist). Everyone at the mall was adoring our boys as they were in their most vulnerable, naked poses. Poor little guys!
