I need some help from all you who are so researched in delay and select vaccinations please!

My twins will be going to their 2yr well baby visit.  The last time they received a vax was Jan 10.  They both received pneumococcal.  Here is what they've gotten so far:

 

Their birthday is Jan 6, 2009 for reference.

 

6/4/09 DTaP

7/8/09 Hib and pneumococcal

8/4/09 Polio and DTaP

10/6/09 Hib and pneumococcal

1/26/10 pneumococcal

 

They both react to the vaxes but Riley more so.  The last one we got, he was sore, wouldn't let me touch his leg, very fussy and crabby and Riley isn't like that.  Thats when I decided enough was enough.  I figured we would start up again when they are 2 and so here we are.

 

Where should we go from here?  I only want whats necessary and I know lots of you say that vaccinations aren't necessary so I don't want to go there.  I chose against the flu and the chicken pox vax. 

 

My biggest concern is the MMR vax.  Can we get it separated still or have they stopped that?  I am going to be asking my ped when we go in.  If at all, I will wait till they are closer to 5 before getting that vax.  We are homeschooling so there is no hurry.

 

Thanks for helping!

I think I'd go with DTaP and IPV.  I'd get one polio now and another dose when they are 4, then you will be considered up to date for polio.  (I'm assuming you want to be up to date for polio.)

 

You can't get single M-M-R anymore.
