6 months old!

Garrett Edward and Brennan Paul are 6 months old today!

While these early months have had their challenges, we still can't believe they are already through the first half of their first year! They bring us such joy, and we are thrilled to have them as a part of our family.

Their 6 month check-up went very well. They are finally big enough to be on the growth chart! This is a great accomplishment because up to this point we haven't been able to plot them next to their peers. Here are their stats:

Garrett: 15 lbs. 5 oz. (11th percentile); 26 inches (30th percentile)

Brennan: 14 lbs. 15 oz. (10th percentile); 25 1/2 inches (15th percentile)

Garrett has more than tripled in size since birth, and gained almost 5 pounds in the last 2 months! Brennan has almost tripled in size, and is showing catch-up growth as well. The doctor was very pleased overall with their growth and development.

Here are some pictures that we took today. (Garrett is on the left, Brennan on the right.)
