Wow, these two kids sure do like to eat! They have progressed into baby food, and wolf down their entire bottles, plus whatever delicious baby food Momma has selected for the day... Brandon is now over 18 pounds, and Aubrey isn't far behind at 17 pounds. He is still a few weeks ahead of her developmentally, but she's gaining quickly. We were concerned with her lagging development, but a developmental specialist examined them both last week and said that they are very large, big surprise, but developmentally right where twins typically are. So no risks or concerns thankfully! That was refreshing to hear... We are doing more exercises with them, and they will each spend some time with a Physical Therapist to ensure they get maximum muscle stimulation. With one child it's easy to spend time working with them, standing them up, etc. With twins, the focus becomes more on keeping them fed and changed, while balancing parental survival... I must say, Momma does a fabulous job! The few times that Daddy spends an hour or two alone with all three kids are the absolute most challenings times of life, both phsyically & psychologically. No idea how you ladies do it, but hats off to the Mom's of the world!! You ladies are damn impressive.
