7 months old

The twins have been getting a lot of exercise lately, whether it be in the exersaucers or rolling on the floor. They are very active these days. They both love hanging out on the farm, which is what we call their exersaucers. I think they like the toys and the fact that they feel in charge by standing in them. Isabel will still roll herself to where she needs to be, wiggling her way into trouble areas with ease. Everett does not roll, but has mastered the art of sitting up, and he loves to play with his basketball hoop. He loves the slam dunk. He also is getting up on all fours a lot, but not quite crawling. Isabel would rather roll or stand than crawl. It won't be long though for new milestones for each.

One thing I know for sure is that they love each other, but are also getting jealous at times. It is so fun now to see them interact with each other. They make each other laugh and they always keep an eye on each other, especially when one is eating. If one has a bottle, the other has to have a bottle, regardless if they just ate. Isabel even stole Everett's bottle earlier this week. As mom says, she is definitely the boss of the two right now. When they play, they are always so nice to each other....wonder if that will last?

As usual, we are always introducing more foods to them and they both like just about everything we've given them. They really like snack time with dad in the afternoon! The are still sleeping all night, from 7pm - 5:30am, so mom and I are catching up on sleep and what's going on in each other's days.

Today is my last day of 'work' for awhile as we leave for vacation on Saturday morning. Sadie and I will be gone for one week and the kids will be with my parents, Nana and Papa. I know they are excited to spend some quality time with the kids. Everett and Isabel better behave!
