Updates on the boys

Cole had his one year check up this past week, and I had my 28 week OB appt so I thought I'd post an update. Cole weighs 22lbs 6oz and is 30 inches tall, which are both right at 50th percentile. He is healthy as can be and had so much fun tearing up the white paper on the table at the doctor's office! He had to get 5 shots plus a finger stick! I just think it is ridiculous that they give babies so many shots all at once...I'd cry if I had to get that many! He did great though and only cried for a minute or two. I really liked the new pediatrician we're going too...(thanks Susan!) So my appointment went pretty well also, besides having to drink the nasty sugar drink and getting blood drawn for the glucose tolerance test. I measured 3cm small so they had me get an ultrasound to check to make sure Kellen was growing ok. I really wasn't worried at all because I measured small with Cole and he was always fine. So to go right along with his big brother, Kellen was also in the 50th percentile on ultrasound and growing just fine. A couple of average boys we have :-) The ultrasound tech, who we've really come to know pretty well said again how much he looks like Cole. She also said how uncomfortable I must feel carrying him so low, but I guess I'm used to it after Cole. I can definately tell that he has dropped in the last couple weeks though. I tried to tell him, just like I did with Cole that this isnt necessary until delivery time, but they are stubborn:-) Cole also had his one year pictures taken this week so hopefully we'll have some proofs by next week to share. His top two teeth are FINALLY coming through after being right under the surface for a month now. He had a tough day yesterday and we could tell he was hurting. He finally seemed to feel a little better right about the time I was leaving for work, thank goodness. He and Justin were snuggled up on the couch watching his favorite Baby Einstein video. Well, Justin was mostly watching the inside of his eyelids but swore "I'm not sleeping."
