my, oh my...six months old

Wow, we look at the calendar and we can't believe our eyes. The girls are six months old already and so much fun! They babble, giggle, smile, sit, and scoot. We're having fun introducing a few foods...of course we had to start with sweet peas. :) Julia actually "quivered" the first time she tried them she disliked them so much--hilarious!

sittin' pretty...

Jocelyn sat up all by herself! We are so proud! Julia definitely has the strength and can sit for several seconds as well. I'm sure she will hit the milestone "officially" this week. Julia delighted us with her laughter last night. She couldn't stop laughing at Tim dropping her nuk out of his mouth. Quite cute!

hats and happiness

Melanie decided to have a little "photo shoot" with the girls last week. They looked so adorable in their hats (thanks Jan!) we couldn't help but keep the camera clicking. We certainly couldn't resist sharing a few favorites. We busily prepared for a tropical storm/ possible hurricane predicted to hit this morning. Thankfully it missed us and wasn't very severe. Thank you to all who were concerned. Overall we are doing very well. The evening fussiness have improved tremendously. We now spend our time reading books together and playing rather than bouncing, lunging, and trying to calm crying babies. The smiles and giggles greatly outnumber the tears and we are so thankful. Life is good.

giggles

Grandma Diana and cousin Abigail had a fun time making the girls giggle when they were visiting. We couldn't help but share the footage...it's a guaranteed smile for your day. :)
