Fall

Fall has certainly arrived and we're all having to bundle a bit more for our walks. Hawthorne looks a bit like a Teamster in his little outfit. Of course the bruiser is nearly 16 lbs. as we just discovered at our most recent doctor's visit. Ethan is not far behind at nearly 15. They're now solidly on the full-term baby growth charts, measuring in the 25th percentile (though I haven't figured out entirely what that really means). The doctor said normally preemies' growth is gradual, a gentle slope up if it were charted. If these guys' growth rates were charted they would almost be straight up, they've grown so much so quickly. We all are just thrilled (though a little nervous as to what the means for future grocery bills....)
