General Update - 4 months and 2 weeks old!

Things are going well.... busy busy!!!! Our little boys are growing so fast. We had them weighed and Ethan weighs 7.6kg (16lb 12oz) and Benji is 6.7kg (14lb 12oz) - Ethan is still gaining faster than Benji, but they say Benny's ok, so not to worry.
Since birth they have been sleeping in the same cot. We have always planned to move them to separate cots when they got older, but lately they have been disturbing each other in their sleep, and waking prematurely. On Saturday evening we got our second cot out of lay-by and separated the little monkeys. They look so little in the big cots alone!
They took to it very well, we thought they might miss each other, but that night they slept for 11hours!! Wooohooo..... hope they can keep it up!

The cots are still in our room, against one wall......Ethan on the left, Benji on the right.

The other day we decided to buy some rice cereal to have in the cupboard for when we want to use it (it was on sale!!). Sal couldn't resist trying it out, so we gave Ethan a taste. He was so funny.... he didn't know what to think or what to do! As you can see by the look on his face, he didn't like it much.
Both boys continue to LOVE bath time. Benji especially loves to kick and splash in his bath. Below is Benji in the bath.
