Clara and Hank are now officially six months old! It's crazy to think they are already done their first 1/2 year. They had their six month doctor appointment earlier this week, which went well. Since they were a bit premature, developmentally they are still assessed as five month olds. But, even so, they hit almost all the six month milestones. Clara is rolling over and grabbing her feet. Hank is chatting up a storm. This is definitely the best age so far. Several of my friends with little ones say that it just gets better and better from this point on, and I can see how that is true.
On the doc's suggestion, the kids are moving up to two meals a day. And the meals are BIG! Clara loves the new routine, but Hank is not as confident about all the extra food. I'm sure it is just a question of getting used to it all. Today's new food was avocado. I am keeping a log about the different foods they are eating and how it is all going. It's been awhile since we have kept a feeding log.
It's hard for me to know what the babies will be interested in regarding their babyhood when they are older. Will they even care about which foods they liked as a baby or not? I know that upon having babies, I am suddenly way more interested in my own baby times. For now, I'm trying to keep notes on all those kind of things. I figure more information is better than less!
The kiddos are having a nap, and I'm off to have some breakfast while they give me a little break before their play date. I've been having a strange allergic reaction to something which causes me hives, which is less than ideal. But, I'm hopeful that I am almost done with all the itchiness!
