4 Month Check Up and Such

I'm always trying to blog more, but it never happens. Shew! We sure are busy. So, here are some updates.

Drew has been doing well in school, but he seemed to be very overwhelmed with all the paper work. So...I switched his curriculum to a distance learning program with Abeka. He is REALLY excited about it, and I think it will take a lot of stress off of me so I can work with Matt and give more attention to the girls.

Matt is doing well, he is very strong willed right now. I am reading the Strong Willed Child by Dobson, and learning to break his will and not his spirit. He is a stubborn one though. He is doing well with his preschool work. He really seems to be picking up on the ABC's and numbers. I am excited for him and my goal is to have him reading by Kindergarten in 2 years.

The girls are well, they went for their 4 month appt today. Dr. told me that I made it look easy. That's all I do, make it LOOK easy, because it definitely isn't. They are growing like weeds. Here's their stats:
Bethany//// Meredith
15lb 1/2oz (80%) ////14lb 5oz (65%)
25 1/4 in. tall (80%) ////24 3/4 in. tall (75%)
16 1/2 cm head cir. (75%)//// 16 1/4 cm. head cir. (55%)

Bethany has a slight cold (I think it's croup), but the doctor said that kids not in daycare get 4-6 colds a year. Both girls are at the 6 month mark as far as rolling both ways and rolling around the living room. The doctor said that he wouldn't be surprised to see them walk at 8 months, but I'm hoping to hold that off until 10 months at least.


All in all everyone is GREAT!
