8 months

My twinners are now 8 months old! It's difficult to imagine my life without them!! They are in every part of my day! I can't wait to see them first thing in the morning and I love being such a vital part of their lives. They are still nursing and have now stopped taking a bottle. It has been such a blessing to be able to nurse them and I don't even know how much money it has saved us, but I'm sure it's a lot! I truly enjoy the time I have with them and most often (99% of the time) I feed them separately (5-6 times each) just to have the opportunity of snuggling and loving them one on one.  I have a very plentiful supply (sorry tmi) but I've been able to donate extra milk to a woman with Lou Gerhigs disease. (Beats dumping it down the sink, right?) I guess it helps her with having a better quality of life and boosts her immune system, so I'm glad to help. 

So back to these babies of mine... Henry is now 18.2 lbs and Charlie is 15.6 lbs. Henry is now crawling and climbing everywhere!!! He climbed up all the stairs today! He is pulling himself up on furniture and I just think he's getting too big way way way too fast!! At least I still have my little Charlie who will still be my baby. :) 

Although he's not far behind. If there is something he wants badly enough, somehow he gets it!! He will "inch-worm crawl" he'll roll, he'll summersault, he'll do  baby yoga and do "downward dog" where he stands on his head with his lil' bum up in the air, (cutest thing ever by the way) and he will scoot along until he gets what he set out for. They are both so fun to play with and enjoy being outside, swinging, crawling in the grass, seeing the dog, pulling hair, jewelry, eating big people food, and drinking water from a cup. They LOVE their brothers and watch their every move. They are each equally loved back their brothers too who amaze me by their patience, involvement, and affection toward the babies. Calvin, Ben and Tommy are the best big brothers!! 

Gosh I sure do love my bunch of boys! We are so blessed!! 

Cutest little bums ever!!

Charlie baby and that smile!! 

Snuggy Charlie

Henry crawled into my bathroom where he could see the brothers, thinks he's big!
