Busy, busy, busy

I've had a lot going on in the last couple of weeks that has prevented me from blogging...some great, some not so great.  But I'm back after a little hiatus!!

In my absence, Emmi turned 6 months old!!  I'm not entirely sure where the time is going.  Can it really be possible that a full six months have passed already?  She had her appointment on the day that she turned 6 months (February 4th).  She continues to be a long, skinny baby.  She weighed in at 15lbs 6oz (35th percentile) and was 27 inches long (90th percentile).  She received four shots and was such a champ.  She only cried for a few seconds.  Then she even "talked" to the nurse afterwards!!  As far as development, she's right on track.

We're still working on eating solids with her.  She's not a fan.  However, we found out in the past couple of days that she doesn't entirely mind bananas.  She doesn't gulp them down by any means, but she at least opens her mouth and doesn't shudder when she swallows them!  Baby steps, baby steps.

Twins are good.  Just recently they've resorted to calling each other by Adalyn and Alivia.  I know, not a huge deal.  But prior to this, they've always referred to each other as Addi and Livi.  So it sounds strange when they blurt out each others' full name.  And their imaginations seem to be sky rocketing...I love it.

She's a smiley one!!


Huh?

She looks so shy.

Just playing in her highchair.

Going for a walk in the snow!!

Yes, they're shoveling the yard...no, I don't know why.

Yummy Elmo.

Six month pictures didn't go so well.  First she choked him...

Then she tackled him...

Next she showed pleasure in squeezing his head...

Finally, she showed her flexibility!!

We decided to just ditch the bunny.
