I can't believe that in 3 months we will be celebrating the twins 1st birthday!!
Here is what the boys are up to:
The twins are both crawling now and I am chasing them all over!! I have never vacuumed so much in my life... I vacuum everyday.. if not twice everyday... they find every single piece of lint.. anything and it immediately goes in their mouth.
It is so much fun watching them move around and explore... their favorite items are the remote controls AND anything that is Brevin's toys!
Ian has 8 teeth and he loves to use them to bit anything and everything.. including me and his brothers.. occasionally he tried to bite Blue's tail but so far I have caught him before clentching down. ALL of his bottles have scrap marks on the bottom because soon as he is done drinking,... he turns his bottle up-side-down and scraps his teeth on the bottom... he does this with his sippy cups and even the remote controls for the TV have teeth scrap marks in them.
Ian loves to make noise and loves to be loud at doing that. He loves to eat and will eat anything that I put on his highchair tray.. he loves pieces of bread and his puffs.. he has tried some pancakes and biscuits and loves it all!
Alex still doesn't like solid food.. he can handle a few puffs but he gags really easily and prefers the soft spoon foods.
Ian is a hugger... when he wakes up in the morning and from his naps.. he wraps his arms around me.. I just love it!! Alex has started to give kisses... a couple times now I have asked him for a kiss and he leans into me with his mouth open.. it is so adorable!!
Alex and Ian have both started pulling themselves up.. we had to lower both cribs.
They have both graduated from their infant bath seat to just sitting in the tub.. they love it!! Alex will sit so nicely and play with his toys the whole time.. Ian, on the other hand, will not sit and is always falling backwards or forwards.. trying to crawl to each end of the tub.. getting his face wet.. he is just a wild child!
Both Ian and Alex love to pull binkies out of eachothers mouth.. it is like a game to them.. so funny to watch!
I am trying so hard to get them to take sippy cups and lately it is working.. I tried putting their milk in it but so far that just makes them mad... I pretty much had Brevin off the bottle by the time he was one but I am not thinking that is going to happen with the twins.. they LOVE their bottles!!
They are wonderful sleepers.. sleeping almost 12 hours at night and 3-4 hour naps during the day!
Ian is in 12-18 month clothing.. Alex is in 9-12 month clothing... both in #3 diapers although Ian could move up to #4
They just had their doctors appointment.. no shots this time.. whew! They are growing up fast and are doing well. Here are their weights and heights:
Ian
22 pounds
31 inches - 75% for weight and 97% for height
Alex
20 pounds
30 1/2 inches - 50% for weight and 95% for height
The twins LOVE being outside.. riding around in their wagon.. in the jogging stroller AND in the burley that I pull behind my bike. They love watching their big brother run through the sprinkler and riding his bike and scooter.. he is great entertainment for them!!
They are doing something new and different everyday.. I know I am forgetting some stuff to add to this post... I will probably add as I think of more.
