Yep, you guessed it, the boys are rolling from their bellies to their backs! The physical therapist that has been working with them is awesome! They've made such huge improvements with their head control and they're pushing themselves up on their arms. Ian and I are so proud of them!
The boys went in for their first Synagis shots last week. The Synagis shots help protect them from RSV (Respiratory syncytial virus). RSV is a seasonal, easily spread virus that is similar to a cold but babies who have under-developed lungs can have serious complications from RSV. So, the Synagis shot is a dose of antibodies that is given every 30 days during RSV season (which happens to be early November-late March in my area). The shot doesn't prevent them from getting RSV but if they would happen to catch it, the antibodies from the shot make the infection less severe. They were weighed before getting their shots and Addison was 6lbs. 1oz. Riley was 5lbs. 4oz.
They're making progress! It's hard to believe they're going to be 5 months old soon.

That's amazing! Keep up the fine work boys!
Oh they are so stinking cute!
I'm still sick...hence why I have not begged to come hold them. I'm fine to be around regular people but there's no way in the world I would step foot near them since what I have is respiratory.
I have slings...want them? Seriously...I need to find them a new home.
