New Stats

The boys had their 6 month appt yesterday. This is always a big ordeal. I have to have someone with me to help me get them in the door (the office isn't big enough for a double stroller) and entertain one while the other is being examined. Then of course there are the shots which start them screaming. not to mention they missed their nap as a result so were getting quite cranky! So I am always worn out at the end :)
Here are their stats:
Jackson: weight: 14.6 1/2 (5th percentile for normal babies), height: 27" (75th percentile for normal babies)
Jaden: weight: 15 (10th percentile for normal babies), height: 26 3/4" (approx 75th percentile)
Jackson should be getting his teeth any day now - you can almost see them on the surface. This explains why he has been waking up screaming in the middle of the night. I don't know why I didn't think of that - but am glad to know the reason.
Now it's time to start thinking about getting things out of their reach and moving poisoness things higher up.
That's it for now. I have a few pictures on the digital camera - I'll get those later :)

I have been so busy lately I never get around to posting. The boys are 6 months old today! Here are some milestones they've passed in the past few weeks.
1) Jaden can easily sit and stand if you are holding his hands.
2) Jaden rolled over once. It was a fluke but they both try alot so it won't be long!
3) They have decided to give in and eat rice cereal. In fact, Jaden gets quite excited about it.
4) They moved to size 2 diapers
5) They moved to 3-6 month clothes
6) They both smile and laugh ALOT
7) Jackson has decided he enjoys waking up in the middle of the night :(
8) Jaden likes to hear himself babel
9) Jackson can grab things
10) Jackson has discovered his feet
Here's a bunch of pictures from the last month.

Here's Jared calming the boys down so we can play bocce ball (I have no idea how to spell that) in the back yard...


Here are the boys having a chat....


Here they are playing...


Here's Jaden sitting and standing with my help. I'm recording and helping him so the top of his head is sometimes chopped off....


Ok, this video is sideways. I wasn't thinking about it when I took it but it's a cute video of Jaden telling Aunt Emily all about his life so far...


And Here's Jaden talking to Grandpa Holden...

Time to eat

Well, we just started trying to give the boys rice cereal. They are not pleased. They think it's gross. I have to admit that after feeding them I tasted the tiniest bit and I'm pretty sure it tasted like glue. Here is a video of each of them taking their first bite!

Jaden's first bite...
