Zoo

Over the holidays, Aaron and I took the twins to the Phoenix Zoo. My Mother-in-law was nice enough to give us a membership to the zoo for Christmas, so we thought we would try it out. Even though the babies are a little young to appreciate it, Aaron and I had a great time. It was nice to get out of the house and enjoy the beautiful weather we have here in December.

 

 

 

 

6 Months! Growing fast

Wow time sure is flying these days. I can't believe we are already well into February. And speaking of time flying, the twins turned 6 months on February 5. They are truly amazing! I can't believe how fast they have caught up, even after being 2 1/2 months premature. Having twins has been the greatest blessing. It is amazing that even though they are twins, they have completely different personalities. At 6 months, here is what they are up to:

JACKSON
Nicknames: JAX, BUBBA, JAXMAN
Weighs: 19 lbs 13 oz (That's right folks, our little man has caught up to the 6 mo growth chart and is in the 85th percentile)
Likes to:
- Suck his thumb or fist
- Coo to calm his sissy down if she is crying. It's the cutest thing.
- Sit up with the help of the Boppy
- Sleep through the night and nap at least 3 times a day (He's our good sleeper).
- Lay on his back on the floor. He has rolled over once from his back to his tummy, but he prefers to be on his back.
 - Likes to eat! He started to cry after eating a huge bottle, so we have started him on some rice cereal. He is still not sure about this solids thing, but he's a pretty quick learner.

REAGAN
Nicknames: REAGS, STINKS (She's going to hate this when she grows up), PRINCESS
Weighs: 13 lbs
Likes to:
- Stand (with assistance)
- Roll over from tummy to back
- Play with her hands
- Smile. She has the best smile!
- Wear no clothes! She loves to be a "nekky" baby
