6 1/2 months

Well the babies had their 6 month doctor visit last week. He said everything looked great! Their weight and heights are:

Presley: length - 25.5 in weight - 14lb 2oz

Keegan: length - 26.5 in weight - 17lb 11oz

Ashton: length - 26.5 in weight - 17lb 11 oz

Not sure if you noticed but the boys are exactly the same. Keegans head is just 1/2 a cm bigger.

The boys are starting to try and roll from their back to their tummies. They have made it a couple of times but they are still working on it. Ashton is now getting into crawling position. His arms are straight, his knees are under him, his tummy is not touching the ground...leans forward....and falls. He will get it soon...and life will get fun!

We have added a lot of baby food and cereal to the mix. I am having trouble trying to figure out how much bottle, how much food, how often....and keep them on a routine. The boys get to come off Neosure this month (the preemie super expensive Similac) and Presley only needs it for another month. We have stocked up on it so I suppose we will get through that before we switch.

The babies also love the jumperoo's. It funny because they all act differently in them. Ashton loves to jump and jump, Keegan likes to sit and play with the stuff quietly. And Presley is kinda in between.

The babies are starting to laugh a lot! Which is really funny.

And starting to get in each others space.

In family news....we will be official Wichita Falls residents in September. Our house is now under contract (thank you for your prayers!!!) and we have a rent house ready for us! Keith will drive about 10 minutes to work everyday and I am pretty much super close to everything. So...if I need to get out of the house I can load up the kids and go window shopping at the mall. But I always have to be ready for the looks, the comments, the non stop questions. Which I think i will be okay with.

6 months

Well the babies are six months old today. Forgive me that there won't be any pictures but we packed the cord that connects the computer to the camera. :-( oops!

The babies are doing great! We have moved from Austin to the Wichita Falls area. We are living in Monica's (Keith's sister) family and are taking up residence in their living room while we wait for our house to sale.

Presley has found her feet and has become a rolly polly. She can roll from her back and her tummy. She has also started pulling her knees under her and pushing herself forward. Keegan and Ashton have started rolling from their tummy to his back more often. Ashton has been the grumpy one this month. I think that he is starting to teeth even though we can't see any teeth.

They have all started playing in their jumperoos and love it! We have also started baby food. Right now they are getting it once a day but I am going to try and shoot for 2 -3 times a day. So far they love almost everything except rice cereal and green beans. Ashton is our best eater...he will open his mouth really wide and will eat anything. Presley will open her mouth too and will eat almost anything and Keegan is still unsure. He opens his mouth a little and still spits a lot of it out especially if he isn't crazy about the food.

This last month has been a little trying. With teething (I am blaming it on that) one baby is always upset. It is constant fussiness from one baby or another or all. The only time it is quiet is when they are sleeping our eating. Having 3 at one time is definitely hard but I have LOVED watching them start to interact and seeing them develop next to each other.

Well the babies are taking their morning mini nap. I better go brush my teeth!
