Today the girls had there one month check up with Dr. Trumbull. It went very well. Everyone kept saying, "you're by yourself?" and I was. Michael had to be in court so I was solo. I responded with as much so now people probably think Michael is in trouble with the law! But it was just the three of us as Riley was with Margaret (our fave babysitter), so it could have been worse I could have had all three!
Dr. Trumbull was very pleased with the girls growth and our nursing schedule. We came to the conclusion that Mary Pace has reflux, which is a relief to know that we can do something about it.
We also went through the daily infant schedule and there is a light at the end of the tunnel. We were spoiled with Riley when he was a week old and above his birth weight he started sleeping 6 hours over night. The girls are not the same. Over all the girls are very easy babies, accept that there are two of them and that some nights they will go 4-5 hours sleeping and other times one 0of them wakes up at 3 hours on the dot. Atleast it is not every two hours!
Currey Elizabeth (on the right above) weighed 8 lbs 1 oz. (20 %) and was 20 3/4 inches long (40 %). She was smaller at birth and shorter at birth than Mary Pace, but now she is taking over the lead. Mary Pace weighed 8 lbs. (20 %) and was 20 1/2 (25 %) inches long.

Allison! they are absolutely gorgeous. You are such a wonderful mommy! Nursing them both, wow! I am so impressed. and Riley is too cute, and too big. I hope ya'll are settling in and you're enjoying your new job.
P.S. did the doc talk to you about probiotics? they are what cured Isla June's reflux and colic symptoms. I know how tough that can be, so I try to spread the message to help other sleepless mommies out there!
Thinking of ya'll!
The girls are beautiful, Allison! And Riley looks like such a proud big brother!
Absolutely beautiful!
