6 Months

Caroline and Avery

It's hard to believe that these sweet babies are already 6 months old! They are growing and changing so fast! It seems like each day their little personalities unfold. It has been so much fun to watch their personalities evolve. They are so different from each other and we love that! Caroline is more outgoing and a little bit dramatic at times and Avery is very docile and mild-mannered. They are both sleeping through the night finally! We still wake them at 10:00 for a bottle. Occasionally, I will hear one of them wake up in the middle of the night on the monitor, but they will go back to sleep on their own. They both continue to be great for us in the car and seem to enjoy getting out and running our errands. We are still getting LOTS of attention when we are out. People stop me in every store to look at the girls and ask a billion questions (the questions I get asked should really be a post unto itself). The girls just look up and smile at all of the people! I don't know their length and weight right now. We go for their checkup next week. Avery is definitely bigger and longer than Caroline right now. They are both on the verge of sitting up.

Avery

• Has found her feet now. Although, she is not quite as interested in them as her sister is.


• Laughs at Caroline. She will just cackle sometimes when we sit them face to face. It is the most precious thing to us! You can just tell how much she loves her!!


• Is totally laid back.
• Is ticklish. She laughs when I wash her hands and feet during her bath!


• Is still loving her blankets and anything soft. When I lay her down in the play pen to play, if there is a blanket in there with her, she will find it and roll around with it instead of playing with the toys.


• Doesn't like peas. She will lock those little lips and not let any peas cross that threshold. When we do get them into her mouth, she doesn't spit them out but you can tell she really is not enjoying them.
• Is so content all the time

• Rolled from back to front.


• Is very active. She is constantly doing her toe touches and just hangs out with her legs in the air. When we change her diaper, she will try to flip all around. She always tries to grab all of the stuff behind her head on the changing table.


• Sleeps on her side with her legs out in front of her. I always say she looks like a little fortune cookie! I love that she sleeps like this. It is so cute to me. I like to go in and just look at her.


• Has become less fearful. She used to always think that she was falling. Now, she likes it when we lift her in the air over our heads.


• Coos a lot and makes all kinds of noises. It cracks us up! I had to leave Books A Million the other day because she was sooooo loud and people were trying to read.


• Laughs when we fake sneeze.


• Smiles every time she sneezes which is quite often. I think this little one may have some allergies even though I have been told she is too young for allergies.
