It's been a very exciting week around our house. As of yesterday both boys are now g-button free! They have both been eating all their bottles and we hadn't had to gavage in weeks. When we went into the pediatrician for flu shots and weight check I made the case for removal. She asked me if I knew the timeline surgery uses for removing buttons. I said I did and 3 months was just too long. We weren't using them, the boys were eating and it was just time to take these puppies out. She agreed somewhat reluctantly and I actually ended up taking them out. Something I never thought I would be able to do a few months ago.
We have started cereal in their bottles to give them some extra calories. They LOVE it. They were so over boring formula it was definitely time to jazz it up. I've been suspecting that we might be starting the teething process and young Charles confirmed my suspicions with the arrival of a bottom tooth. It's adorable and he's already tired of me pulling his bottom lip down to admire it. In Henry news, he has enough head control to play in his Baby Einstein entertainment center. He is a huge fan and it has opened up a whole new world to him. The boys have started to notice and smile at each other and it's absolutely heart melting.
I'll leave you with some likes/dislikes and pictures.
