4 month pediatrician visit

Well, we made it through the four month pediatrician visit. By the end we were covered in spit up, tears, and drool, but all the babies got a clean bill of health. Everyone is developing wonderfully, and we got permission to try out cereal with them if we want to. Considering that Lucas acts like a bottomless pit most days, we may start with him to see what he thinks about eating from a spoon.
