6 month checkup

Ada and Evie had their 6 month checkup with the Doctor.  
They passed with flying colors!
We kept having to remind the nurses which baby was which.  
So here are the stats:

Ada
Weight: 10 lbs 15 1/2 oz
Length: 24 in
Head: 16 3/4 in

Evie
Weight: 10 lbs 9 1/2 oz
Lenth: 24 in
Head 16 1/2 in

Evie is still about 6 oz behind Ada, and has always been 4-6 oz behind.  For their developmental milestones they're doing great.  The doctor said that pretty much they're the size of a 4 month old which they should be because they were premies, but development a 6 month old.  They can't sit up on their own yet, but the doctor said that may take some time since they need to gain weight and muscle first.  
So now that we got all the boring stuff I'm sure you want to see some photos.  
Be warned though, there's some cute naked babies below!

Wow, that's pretty much 11 lbs!

Measuring their length.  Both girls are the same length.
So at what point do you stop measuring length and start measuring height?

My you have a big head!

The girls love their doctor.  Evie just sat and babbled to the doctor the whole time.  You could tell that he was trying to not laugh at her.  Ada took a little while to warm up to him.  We're pretty happy with the doctor as well.
We'll be back to check in with him in 2 more months.
