Bath time has been quite a chore with two babies! It is getting better. Brooklyn enjoys herself a little more now but she is growing out of the tub we use in the sink. The counter next to the sink is also now a little small for them to lay on while getting undressed, etc. Marley is still unsure if she likes the water or not. She cries through bathing still...hopefully, we get past that soon. I think we will have to transfer to the baby tub in the actual bathtub soon. That should be fun! Before we know it they will be splashing too much and getting water everywhere and we will be wishing they DIDN'T love bath time so much!

Marley cries as soon as you stick her feet in.
Happy Saint Patrick's Day to everyone! The girls got all dressed up in green! The picture of Brooklyn with the "Brooklyn" lager was from about a week ago, but we saved it to post with this series of photos. And I do have to say, last year on St. Patrick's Day the girls were conceived in their little petri dish! So today is a special day for us and we are celebrating!
If you look super close this beer is called Brooklyn Lager....
Marley Doodle's shirt says Kiss Me I'm Irish and B's says A Wee Bit Irish! Too cute! Marley's hat was for the dog but it looked cuter on her and Brooklyn still has green glitter on her head from the shamrocks!
They also have on cute outfits for today but I will have to post those pictures later!
Below is a picture of Brooklyn's first bites of semi-solid food. She doesn't really like it all that much and now is having some pooping issues. Yay! We are not 100% sure it is from the food or what....sigh, poor thing.
We are now 4 months old! And boy did we celebrate with an eventful day! First, Mommy decided to take a bunch of pictures. We got one special one with Kirra and then a lot by ourselves. A couple are highlighted below but check out the album link because there a like a million in there!
Then we went to meet Mommy's friend Christi for lunch. Mommy and Christi got their Master's degrees together at Xavier. She has a cute little boy, Patrick, who is just a week older than us. He is another one of our new boyfriends. We hope to hang out with him more often.
Then we went to our 4 month doctor's appointment. We were really good girls. Brooklyn weighs 11 lbs 7 oz and Marley weighs 8 lbs. 15 oz. We are growing and everything looks great. The doctor is going to make us do a few weeks of physical therapy to help us catch up to where we need to be developmentally. We are right where we should be in accordance to Mommy's real due date, so that is good, but the doctor says it can't hurt to speed us up a tad. Brooklyn is allowed to start eating a little bit of cereal each day and we both have to stay on the preemie infant formula. Mommy hates this because she can't buy it at Costco.
Then we had to get shots. Brooklyn went first and actually didn't even cry! She got a sad face and pouty lip but no sounds or tears! Marley cried a little but held her own. The nurses were impressed!
More updates soon! Check out more pictures of us, click on the web album below!
