4 months old!

Lincoln turned 4 months old on the 4th. He is such a happy guy!
All about Linc at 4 months:
  • Lincoln is a very chatty little guy!  He makes lots of fun noises and is going to have a lot to say when he figures out this language thing!
  • He started rolling from tummy to back at about 3 1/2 months
  • He drinks 5, 5oz bottles a day & is a pretty good napper but still wakes up & wants his binky in the night and early morning hours.
  • He's quick to smile and almost always happy
  • He loves to kick and splash in the bath
  • He loves the feel of his hair!
  • Often has his hands in his mouth
  • He loves when his brothers & sister talk to him & play with him
  • Is wiggly!  I think he'll definitely be more mobile at a young age than his siblings were!
  • Has huge blue eyes - that's the first thing people say about him!
  • Loves music, lights & watching Baby Einstein 
  • He's very ticklish
  • He loves kisses and snuggles!
  • He'll grab mine or Sissy's hair and chance he gets
  • He's wearing 3-6 mo clothes but will be in 6-9 in a couple of weeks for sure!
Lincoln went for his 4 month well check on the 6th.  Here are his stats;
Length: 25.5" (64%)     Weight: 15 lbs 15 oz (59th%)     Head: 17.76" (100th%+)

We love our chunky monkey!

37 Weeks 2 Days

It's almost the end! I saw Dr. Adam last Thursday and I'm starting to spill protein and swell a little. But my BP is good! So we'll see what happens when I see her this Thursday. We may have to deliver early! I have mixed feelings about that because I really wanted to make it to 39 weeks, and my parents can't come until the 14th. But Sam is worried about my kidneys. So we'll see. Baby girl was 6.5 lbs last week. Even if she comes this week, she'll probably be about 7 lbs! Me on the other hand... I've gained 40 lbs! I have 5 lbs to go to be where I was with my other deliveries. Let's see if I get there! :)

Today we got together with another set of twins! Caden & Addison are just a month younger than Nathan & Alexa and were born at Texas Women's also! I met their mom (Laurie) through an email list I got on while on bed rest in the hospital. There was another mom who was supposed to join us who also has boy/girl twins their age-- but she couldn't make it. What a picture that would have been!

Nathan McKay Oldroyd Born August 4th at 6:37 a.m., weighs 5 lbs. 8.5 oz, & is 20 in. long Alexa Dawn Oldroyd Born August 4th at 6:38 a.m., weighs 4 lbs. 5.5 oz, & is 1 6.75 in. long We are so excited that they are finally here! The C-Section went very well & Alisha is recovering well, with the help of pain meds! Nathan needs quite a bit of help with breathing but is improving. We’re told that he may get his ventilator tube out today & they would help him breathe using a C-pap. He breathes ok on his own so he mostly now just needs some pressure to remind him to breathe. He is still in the highest level of the NICU but is doing well. He’ll be in there for at least a few days after we get to go home. Alexa is tiny but doing extremely well. Alisha was able to hold her while still in the OR before she needed some oxygen help. She only had to stay on the oxygen until 11 a.m. and is still in the lower level NICU. She should get to move to the normal nursery tomorrow m...
