Today the girls had their 2 month doctor's visit which was unfortunately scheduled at 7:45 am. We miraculously got there on time and the visit went well. The girls got three shots each and an oral vaccine and did great. They screamed for while they got the shots and for about 30 seconds afterwards and then fell asleep for several hours. The doctor pronounced the girls "perfect" - they are growing like weeds and are meeting the appropriate developmental milestones. The nurse excitedly told us that the girls are finally on the growth chart - they were so small last visit that they didn't even make the 5th percentile on the charts. Today Kate was in the 5th percentile and Maya was in the 10th for their age - not their adjusted age, but the actual time since they were born! I think they're above the 50th percentile for their adjusted age - which is amazing considering they didn't make the charts for adjusted age when they were first born.
In other news, Maya and Kate have graduated to larger (8 oz) bottles since they started drinking all of their smaller bottles. I'm hoping that now that they are eating more, they can go longer at night between feedings. I can't wait until they are sleeping through the night - or at least five or six hours between night feedings.
