5 Months

There is another new post below :) We did have good naps today!

So this was Riley and Quinn at 1 month old. I can't believe that was just 4 months ago. Time seems to be flying by and they are growing and changing so quickly! I love them more and more every day and I am still so amazed by the blessing they are. Here they are at 5 months old. They have gotten so tall lately! Quinn is wearing 3-6 month clothing and Riley is in 0-3 month clothing. It's so funny to me that Riley is still small for her age, but to me she just seems so big these days :)

Quinn has really gotten into playing with toys lately. He loves sticking them in his mouth and drooling all over them. Of course I didn't realize at the time but he was teething so I'm sure they feel good on his gums!

Riley has started carrying on these long conversations lately. She's been cooing for awhile, but not doing it very much or very long. Well, that's all changed. She suddenly has tons to say and is so cute saying it. She has these sweet soft little voice that is just precious. She also loves her hands! She is not quite as into the toys as Quinn is but as long as she has a hand she's happy!

They may be getting big, but they are still small enough to get into their toy bin together!

Haley has been so good with them. I'm sure she'll have to adjust again when they start crawling around after her. I thought this was so cute because it looks like she's licking Quinn's hand and he's not too sure what he thinks about that. He had better get used to it!

Babies with their Haley!

In the big chair!

Sweet 5 months old. They still are just being nursed. I love that I am nursing my twins and especially seeing people's reactions when I tell them that. In a crazy way it's much easier, no bottles to prepare and clean, and much easier for travel, we can just go! I haven't started them on cereal yet, but we may start sometime this month. Since they were born 6 weeks early I wanted to wait til their adjusted age was about 4 months.

Another thing that I have seen them do this month is really become much more aware of each other. They will lay beside each other and reach out to each other as well as spend time really looking at each other. It has been so cute to see them lock hands and arms lately. They are going to be best friends!

Quinn is so cute when he sleeps! He is still my little cuddler and I just love spending my days with my sweet babies! We are back to getting up once at night. It's been since we got home from New Jersey so I'm not sure if they are just still adjusting or what. I'm a little tired these days so you can pray for a little more sleep for us all (perhaps I'll sleep again when they are grown)!
