Sleep: I would say that their sleep cycle is about the same. Ryan has improved some though. They have been going to bed by 7pm each night and usually sleep 4.5-5 hours for the first stretch of the night. With an occasional 6 hour night. ( I love those!) Then every 3-4 from that point on until daylight.

Eat: Ryan is taking 4-5 oz of formula every 3-4 hours. Harper is taking 5-7oz of formula every 3-4 hours. Our pediatrician has given us permission to start solids between 4-6 months! The girls are sitting up really well now and we have their high chairs ready. So tonight is the night that we start trying to introduce eating foods from a spoon. This may take a little practice to get the hang of it but I'm excited! We will be starting off with Squash and then going to sweet potatoes.

Diapers: Same as last month. Harper is in size 2. Ryan is in size 1.

Clothes: Harper & Ryan both jumped to 6 months outfits! The pants are a tad long but we roll them up, not a problem. I can't believe how big they're getting!

Talk: It has become apparant that Harper LOOOVES to talk. It's so much fun to listen too. Ryan talks also but it's so suttle and almost like a purr. adorable.

Other:  The girls expereienced their first snow of the season on Nov 17th!

Milestones:  Ryan has started rolling over from tummy to back this month. She also is on the verge of rolling from her back to tummy. She almost did it last night. She's just a finger tip push away from tipping to her tummy. Exciting! This also makes me nervous because she could start rolling from back to tummy in her crib. I watched her almost do it once on the monitor.

.....and of course I've updated their photos for 4 months. I could juse kiss their little cheeks right off!!!!
