7 months old today!

Wow, the girls are 7 months old today!!! Genevieve had her first tooth come through last Tuesday, 6/24 (the bottom front on right side) and now has the one beside it cutting through! As of Friday, 6/28 she has also begun to say "Da Da" which has thrilled Jim to death! Sophie is doing very well and is progressing - she now bears weight better on her legs and can handle tummy time alot better than she did before! They both love to smile and giggle all the time....They are now eating solid foods three times a day and are sleeping from 7pm until 7am!

However, Gizmo (our 12.5 year old poodle) now keeps us up during the night due to his diabetes- he wakes us up at 2:30/3am every morning barking to go outside. How crazy- what a sense of humor God has! Now that the girls are sleeping, the dog isn't! He definitely needs more insulin...we just tried a new approach where we put the "Pull Ups" diapers on him at night and put him in his crate- although he barks much of the night, our sound machine in our bedroom has really come in handy:).

The girls are 6.5 months old today!


Wow- has time flown! The girls were 6 months old on May 30th and they had their 6-mo doctors appointment on Monday, June 9th. Sophie was 14 lb, 11oz and Genevieve was 15 lb. 4 oz.

They are both now eating baby food 3 meals per day along with their bottles. As of early June, we officially stopped Sophie's last feeding at 10pm so both girls are now sleeping from 7pm til 7am!

Genevieve can sit up for 10-15 seconds by supporting herself on her hands and she has now begun to roll all over the place! Sophie is rolling more now and loves to sleep on her side at night- she has also just recently found her thumb which is awesome for Mommy and Daddy! Now, both girls pacify themselves with their thumbs so no more waking us up in the middle of the night to have to put their pacis back in!
