It's amazing, but these girls just keep growing and learning! They love to eat. Really, just about anything I put in front of them they'll eat now. In addition to all the purees, now they'll eat mashed up bananas, avocados, and pears. They love meltable foods like the puffs, wagon wheels, and even Starbucks pumpkin scones (yep, starting them off early). Everyone is now rolling from back to belly and belly to back (yay, Brelynn just did it this morning for the first time). They are learning peek-a-boo and they love to stand on the couch and look out the window at the cars going by. Camille has figured out how to 'crawl' backwards and has made it across the room a few times now. She thinks that coughs, burps, and toots from her sisters are hysterical and laughs almost every time they occur. Brelynn is starting to clap her hands which will eventually turn into pat-a-cake :)

We saw the nutritionist last week and the girls really are doing well for their age. Each scale is different, but here's what we got at nutrition. When adjusted for prematurity (compared to babies that are 6 months, 2 weeks) they were as follows:
Avery- 14 lb, 13 oz (10-25%ile), 25 1/2" (25-50%ile), head 43 1/2 cm (50-75%ile)
Brelynn- 16 lb, 8 oz (50-75%ile), 26 1/4" (50-75%ile), head 45 cm (90-97%ile)
Camille- 13 lb, 10 oz (10%ile), 25 1/4" (10-25%ile), head 43 1/2 cm (50-75%ile)

Way to go, girls!
