32 weeks - Chatterbox

Reese seems to be coming out of a fussier period (fingers crossed). She has a lot to say these days.... screams of joy, growls of excitement and some new sounds ba, ma & da. She is also always moving, which makes plopping her down a bit harder. Nose dives seem to be fun for her, or its her attempt at getting on all fours to crawl either way there have been many face plants in the last week...most times it doesn't phase her. We have set up an enclosed baby play area with padded flooring so she is safe to move as she wishes without hurting herself. Raegan is starting to like to play with her, (YESSSSS) now that she has more to say and moves around a bit.

She likes to eat a lot more than Rae did at this age. She will pretty much put any food that I put in front of her in her tummy the best she possibly can. & She managed to drink some smoothie out of my straw the other day to my surprise, I thought she'd just chew on the straw...nope she managed to get a mouthful of smoothie with a big smile. I took it away from her after that, she was very very angry at me.

We had our 6 month well baby check last week (a month late), Reese was 22 lbs & 28inches. No surprise there :)

At Ortho play group with Ellie & Ella, not twins but born within days of each other.
Reese is 3 months older and 2x's as big ;)

Trying out her Halloween jammies, the bones glow in the dark apparently.
I was surprised when I put her down for a nap, she was glowing.

7 Months - Teeth!

The last month has been very hectic. We are finally back up in Riverside, though the house isn't quite finished yet. And we just got back from a trip up to Seattle to see family and friends, which was enjoyable but not relaxing, the girls kept us busy.

Reese has been teething pretty badly this last month, she has gone from sleeping 10 hours a night to waking from 2 to 4 times a night..sigh. Her bottom left tooth broke through a few days ago and the one next to it looks like it'll be making an appearance soon also. Then hopefully we'll get back to sleeping for longer stretches. She is also mom's #1 fan right now, so if you are not mom she probably wont let you hold her for more than a minute. I on the other hand hold her a large portion of the day, if I walk out of sight she screams & cries. This seems to be wearing on Raegan a bit who wants some mom attention too.

Reese is now "trying" to eat some solid food, she mostly plays with it and makes faces, but she seems to have fun. She's sitting really well and will stand with assistance for short periods of time. The has no real interest in getting on all fours or crawling yet (not complaining). If I place her on her tummy she just rolls to her back and then attempts to sit up with her neck ;) Her new favorite noise to make is an excited growl, plus the raspberries are still fun too.

Nope, not sleeping

Nom nom nom fingers
