6 months!

Last week Grayson and Jackson scooted past 6 months! I can't believe they've been here for that long already!  I still feel like they're little babies and like I just had them! But then I think back to being pregnant and that feels like ages ago.

At their 6 month check up they got a few more shots...poor guys!  Andrew and I each have to hold down one boy while they get their vaccines.  I know it's best for them but it's so not fun!

Here are some pictures of them on their 1/2 year birthday:




What they've been up to lately:
  • grabbing their feet
  • rolled over from back to tummy:: only Grayson's managed this feat, and only did once...while naked before bath time!
  • yelling
  • razzing
  • sleeping without swaddles
  • sleeping through the night:: generally...whew!
  • 3 naps a day
  • looking at books
  • passing things from one hand to the other
  • "zoom":: for whatever reason, Jackson belly laughs whenever you say "zoom"- we love it!
  • belly laughing and giggling
  • lots of smiles still
  • weight:: 13lbs for Grayson and 13.5lbs for Jackson
  • wearing (and starting to outgrow) 6 month clothing
  • recognize and smile at one another
  • grabbing faces:: they love grabbing noses, mouths...of each other and mom and dad
  • moving on to solid foods:: well, at least rice cereal
  • sitting:: Jackson will sit without help for maybe 10 seconds and Grayson falls over a little more quickly
The boys hanging out together after waking up one morning

Getting ready for being spoon fed rice cereal for the first time!


The aftermath...Grayson knocked over some of the rice cereal and is kicking his feet in it.  Both had dried cereal all over their faces and bellies!  ...Baths were definitely necessary after
