6 months!

Sammi

Em

Here are a few fun pictures... 6 months already! At this time last year, we were preparing to go camping in Colorado - my, times have changed! The girls have discovered their voices, and are intrigued by the noises they can make while food is in their mouth :) The spray is pretty incredible! Check out the cheeks on these monkeys!

Project Chub-up

Goodmorning! For the last few weeks, we've been trying to beef the girls up a bit! At their 6 month check up, Sammi was 11 lbs, 15 oz and Emma was 11 lbs, 10 oz. This put them off the charts, and underweight, since they had only gained 4 oz in a month. Then we began "Project Chub-up"! Within 2 weeks, Emma finally surpassed Sammi, and weighs in at 12 lbs, 7 oz and Sammi's 12 lbs, 6 oz. In the meantime, their tastes are increasing as they like hot chocolate and icecream (Francis' contribution) and sweet potatoes and peas (my contribution). Francis thinks we should try pureeing chocolate, as that would help chub them up quicker (although it hasn't seemed to work for him :) Check out the pics, the cheeks are definately filling out!

Identical?

The gals are 5 1/2 months old already! They are getting more fun by the day, and are desperately trying to crawl. Thus, their frustration level is increasing as well! However, with this gorgeous weather, we are outside almost every day, and there is plenty to distract out there.

Playing together! (right before Sammi steals Emma's toy)


Enjoying the sun.. identical??? (S-L, E-R)
