Things have been going well. The boys are growing and developing well. Alex is sitting up on his own. Ben is getting there, but he isn't quite doing it yet. (Edited: Ben actually sat up on his own while I was typing the original post. Go Ben!) They are eating a lot of new foods really well. They are not fans of bananas. They are both really pulling up on everything. They don't always make it up, but they are really interested.
Ways my babies are like my old rabbit:
1. They both like to chew on every cord they can get access to.
2. They chew the crap out of your finger when you try to handle them.
3. They poop on my floor.
Yes, they poop on my floor. I was giving the boys a little naked booty time. They are down to 1 poop every 1-2 days. He had already gone that day so I felt safe. Too safe it seems. I went to pick him up and nearly cried. Babies are disgusting.
My 3 boys. Ben in green Alex in grey
Ben. They boys LOVE the camera. When they see it come out, they get excited like this and start crawling over to grab it. That makes taking pictures of anything other than crawling towards me difficult.
Alex
Ben left. Alex right
I threw this one in so you can see how far their teeth have come in. I'm pretty sure they are both getting 1 or 2 on the top right now as well. This has been a bit of a whiney week. Ben with teeth Alex in back
I think this one is hilarious. Ben's face coupled with Alex messing with his backside really tells a story.
Ben left Alex right. This is a rare both smiling picture.
The next 2 pictures go together.
1st: Ben in front Alex reaching from behind for a hug
2nd. Baby hug not accepted. They both get really lovey with the other, but not usually at the same time. One will reach over and hug or kiss the other. The one getting hugged or kissed starts screaming like he is being murdered. I don't know why they never do it when they are both in the mood for affection.
Feeding has been going really well. Mostly. Some feedings go better than others. Alex has discovered the joys of blowing raspberries while eating. You can see all the splatters on his tray from raspberrying while eating.
Ben tends to rub his face while he eats. You can see his has food all the way up to his eyes. I regularly have to clean green beans out of his eyelashes.
Ben in green Alex in white
Ben crawled over to the top of the stairs. Shep usually hangs out there. He was not happy to have Ben join him. Time to put up the baby gate!
Alex in white Ben in green. I gave them a few boxes to play with since they started trying to pull up. They are too short to get a good hold on our couch and we don't have a coffee table or any other low table. Boxes seem to work. The one they usually use is now full of books and magazines so it doesn't tip over.
Alex crawled his way behind the futon and was hanging out over the a/c vent. You could see his little hair blowing in the wind.
Video Time!!
One of the best baby videos you will ever see. ever.
Ben on the left Alex on the right
Alex in white Ben in green/yellow. This is one of those times Ben was more playful than Alex.
Alex crawling. He is fast. This video doesn't show him moving that fast, but a lot faster than he used to.
Ben in the activity thing. Alex on the floor.
Alex on the floor. He sits up on his own.
