Four weeks old!

It's soooo hard to believe, but the twins turned 4 weeks old on Wednesday. Today is their actual due date (if they had gone full term - 40 weeks). Here are some pictures we took on their one month birthday!

Today we had our one month visit to the pediatrician and we were really hoping that Knox would be up to 6 lbs (he was 5 lb, 5 1/2 oz at his two week visit). Not only is getting bigger a good thing overall, but the pedi said that once he got to 6 lbs, we could go to feeding them both every four hours (vs. every three). Not that they will always wait four hours for their next meal (or even three), but in the event that they're still sleeping (e.g. the middle of the night), we can let them keep sleeping. Which of course means that Mommy and Daddy can also keep sleeping :)

So we went today and Piper weighed in at a whopping 7 lbs, 7.5 oz! Not bad considering that 2 weeks ago she was at 6 lbs, 2 oz! We could tell she was getting bigger and especially today when I went to put her into her car seat to go to the pedi and she wouldn't fit! I had to figure out how to adjust the harness in the carseat so we could leave (seriously, not an easy feat!) And today Knox weighed 6 lbs, 13.5 oz!!! So we are all thrilled that this seemingly constant feeding is really paying off!
