Seven Months Old!

Lana and Jackson are seven months old now. They have gotten so big in the last couple of months. At their six month check-up they were both over 17 pounds!

They love their solid foods. I'm really astounded they have both liked everything that they've tried. For breakfast they have oatmeal mixed with a fruit, and for lunch and dinner they typically split a container of fruit and two containers of vegetables. But by far their favorite food are these little baby rice cakes made by Baby Mum Mum. They each can eat two of them at every meal! They are also learning how to hold sippy cups with handles and enjoying a small amount of fruit juice mixed with a larger amount of water.

They're also on a pretty consistent schedule. At night they will both sleep about 12 hours, going to bed around 7:30pm and waking around 7am or a little later. Lana almost always sleeps through the night, while Jackson will occasionally wake up looking for his pacifier. Once he has found it he quickly goes back to sleep. I consider myself very lucky to have two good sleepers. Nathan and Tate didn't sleep through the night consistently until after their first birthdays. Both twins are also taking consistent 2 hour naps during Tate's afternoon nap. Nathan and I LOVE the quiet time this provides.

Lana has even gotten her first two teeth! She loves to show them off! They are both very mobile. They roll everywhere they want to go. Lana is also getting up on her hands and knees and trying to crawl. I suspect it won't be long before they are both crawling, sitting up on their own and pulling themselves up to stand.
