7 Months Old!!

Holy Cow!!


My babies are 7 months old! Where has the time gone??

The girls are.... well huge!! They are getting so tall! Their legs and bum are way off my lap when I nurse them!! And carrying them in their carseats is almost impossible these days. I am sure I'm carrying around 40 lbs++ these days!!


So what's new??? Everything. Daily these girls amaze me with how they devour this new world they have discovered! I love seeing them learn and succeed.

They sit up all by themselves ( I keep a few pillows tossed around... just in case a nogan is bumped)

They are eating solids (well mush - hee hee hee). I love how they open their mouths for more!!!

They say 'da' . Well it's more like ' da da da da ddaaaaa aaah daaah geeeeh da ddaa'
and 'ma' - although that one is more rare. Amaya started the 'ma' sound at Christmas... but forgot about it for a few months. Kiara said 'da' first... and then all of a sudden Amaya can't stop saying 'da' that's all she says!! though Amaya say's 'ma' in her crib and 'da' when she is playing.

We have started to teach them 'signs' like - all done, more, Mommy and Daddy.


They put their soothers back into their own mouths!! That's right!! They find it and put it in themselves when they want it!! hooray!!

They are sleeping through the night!!! YES!!! It took a few nights of 'cry it out' which wasn't as tramatic as I thought it was going to be. For us it was really just.. pick them up, settle them and place them back into their crib where they fall back asleep immediately!

They are really starting to move around. They go from sitting to a 'crouching' position to on their tummies... to rolling around! I think they get 5 or more feet away from where we put them these days! Uh oh!! Crawling is coming!

There is probably alot more that I could tell you... but it's late and they are sleeping!!! So I should go to be too! here is a picture for you...... i'll post more soon
