More butter please!
Grandma and I took the boys for their 15 month well checkup on Tuesday. Here are some stats on the boys:
17.2 pounds
I know some of you will see that weight and be surprised, but on our end it was reason to celebrate. Brett has been "stuck" at 16 pounds for several months and had a nutrition evaluation 2 weeks ago and gained almost a full pound since than! Brett is tall and way too light for his age, but some of his coordination issues include his difficulty with suck, swallow and breathe - something most of us do naturally and never give a second thought. He even has to work hard at eating - but he is doing great!!!!
Jackson: 30 inches
20.6 pounds
Peyton: 30 1/4 inches
21.4 pounds
So Peyton - the youngest of the bunch by 1 minute - was the smallest when born and is now the biggest!
Jackson and Peyton are also on the skinny side. About 50th percentile for height and between the 5-10 percentile for weight.
The doctor's orders: Use more butter!

Great pictures! They are so cute!! Our speech therapist told me once that butter is "brain food" for babies. So, no only will it help you give some extra calories to your skinny kids, it will make them smarter. :)
