We met the Carlsons and Meyers at the zoo right at opening this morning, so 6 adults and 6 kids 2 and under. We brought our side by side Maclaren stroller as Avery and Ryan both enjoy being able to look around, especially Ryan. We used it for the first time around the neighborhood last night and it worked well. We also decided to break in Andy's daddy diaper backpack. Jack and Annabelle enjoyed running around and leading the way. Annabelle even helped push the stroller when she took a break from pulling GG in the wagon. The Carlsons and Meyers headed out before us and so we did a stroll through the primate section. Ryan and Avery were asleep by the end. We headed to uptown after the zoo to grab something to eat and ended up at Steubans for brunch. There was a little bit of a wait, but it was worth it. They both did great at the zoo and restaurant and took a long nap this afternoon.
They have now been through peas, green beans, squash, and carrots, and are doing great. This week, we will try some sweet potatoes and move to fruit. We have also just changed from 5 to 4 bottles a day with 8 ounces per bottle so we can get them to bed sooner, so far it seems to be working well. Even though they turn 6 months on Thursday, our dr appt isn't until the 19th since Dr. Middlemist is out on vacation until then. We are anxious to see how much they weigh now!
