4 Months Old-week 4

This week was so much better for our little guys! They were feeling better and started doing so much more than 2 weeks ago! This week we both laughed out loud and Alex said Momma!! It was so sweet. At first Andy would laugh and it would scare him so he would cry. But a few days later he got the hang of it. It is so much fun tickling them!

This week we spent more time on the floor with plenty of tummy time and practicing sitting up. The boys did pretty well with it but they still don't like to spend a lot of time on the floor.

This week we started eating Oatmeal with Bananas at night before bath time. Both of them really liked the different flavor. They are still only on formula and the rice cereal and oatmeal for now. Since they were preemies their pediatrician wants us to wait until they are 6 months old before introducing baby food. So we will stick to what we are doing for now since they seem to be satisfied. The boys are eating about 6oz at a time and eat every 3-4 hours. We have been trying to slowly get a nap routiene even though they really just sleep when they want to sleep. This week since I only work half a day we would get home around 1 and try to take a nap around 2. Most days they did well. This week I also worked on putting the boys in their beds while they were awake for naps instead of rocking them to sleep. I would wait for them to get fussy and then put them to bed. They actually would lay in there and fall asleep! At night we are still waiting until they are asleep to lay them down, since most of  the time they are eating their last bottle when they fall asleep. 
The boys will be 5 months old tomorrow and we just can't believe it!! Here are some more photos from this week.
