Vitals Update

Afternoon doctor's appointments rock. The place was empty; they saw us fast and the whole experience felt much calmer. Plus I brought pretzel sticks that the ladies munched on continuously.

Stats update:
Ana is now 21 lbs and 10 oz. 29.5 inches.
Lily is 25 lbs and 14 oz. 30.5 inches.

They are both eating their Wheaties. Lily just eats a few extra. I kid. They both eat like champs actually. Lily eats more and tends to chipmunk her food: stuffs her cheeks and forgets to chew. It's cute. Sometimes she even spits it out and re-eats it, like my old dog Lasso. Just kidding.

I think I need sleep. Looking forward to a yum-a-rific lunch at Sabrina's tomorrow.
