More teeth!

Top teeth mum!



What a cutie


Yesterday we noticed that Rebecca had sprouted both her top front teeth - overnight! She now has one on the bottom and the two on top while Finn only has the bottom two. Finn had a first yesterday as well, he finally rose up on all fours and was rocking forwards and backwards. He can roll over quite well too. Rebecca is still shuffling backwards mostly and still has to figure out how to move forwards. Both babes are a little sick at the moment with a cold and a cough, runny nose, wheezy chest. Poor tots. Finn seems to sleep at night without too much hassle but Rebecca wakes coughing and cries a bit...means parent on duty wakes up each time too, so not great nights sleep at the moment. I still can't believe they are almost 8 months old! And most dreamlike of all is that tomorrow will be my first Mothers Day with real live babies in my arms. So very very special...

Twin love

It is an amazing thing to watch as the twins start interacting more and more. They have a real curiosity now for who the other baby is and openly smile and laugh at each other, exploring faces with hands - sometimes scratching heads, sucking noses and grabbing limbs...but so special to watch.

When a boy has to sleep...

Our Finny boy loves his sleep...he also loves pulling blankies and lappies over his head and then scaring himself when he can't see. What a sweetie pie.

Two teeth!

Finn's second tooth made an appearance a few days after the first.  He looks so cute with his two bottom front teeth growing. Rebecca is close behind with her first tooth already showing. Now I have to watch my fingers when they want to gnaw on them as they can bite really hard! I must say, I am rather pleased my nipples are out of the picture lol - ouch.


one tooth, two teeth...



The explorer...



I want to go play inside...not on my mat!

 

It is so cool under my brother's cot

 

Where does it go to?

 

I can stay under here for a while...

Growing...growing

Went to Babyclinic yesterday for a weigh-in and food chat. Finn has put on 900g in 6 weeks and Rebecca 700g.  He weighs 8.2kg and Becca 6.8kg - both doing just great.  Finn is growing like a weed and is already over the average line for his real age!

On the food front, it is so exciting as we can start to add yummy things like cream cheese, tomatoes, onions, finger foods, dried fruits etc  and in a few weeks time, fish and eggs. I am going to make them a yummy chicken, onion and tomato, veg stew with brown rice. I am also going to make hummus and try cream cheese and avo on rice cakes.  Their high chairs will be arriving this week so it is going to be so much fun putting finger foods in front of them and watch what they do.

Oh how I am loving this phase...it just gets better and better as they get cuter and cuter.  Both give me slobbery kisses and little Becs holds onto my neck when I hold her in my arms as if she is hugging me. I just can't kiss them enough every day!

Their high chairs coming soon...

Let's get moving!

We are gonna start moving soon mum!
