All Aboard...


This morning, during breakfast, Mia decided it was time to build a train! She made us all line up single file, with our chairs, and then she conducted a train ride... I never knew that having siblings would create so much joy for her, and fuel her creativity! The twins always gamely play along with whatever big sister Mia proposes. Apparently Daddy does too...

Self Feeding!


While the kids are really growing and developing, they certainly are not losing their penchant for feeding time! Momma has got them eating real food for all of their meals, but we still supplement with a few bottles each day. Last week Brandon began holding his own bottle for his entire feeding! Wow, does that ever make life easier... Baby steps, literally!

Happy Girl...


Aubrey is absolutely blossoming in the past month! Not only is she finally rolling around and showing interest in actually moving, but she is just the happiest little girl... I guess that's what a lot of Momma love does for a baby! She certainly is a Momma's girl. Where Big B will go to anyone, she is certainly a bit apprehensive with strangers. She has the sweetest little smile...

Mobile!!


Brandon is convinced that he'll be running a marathon shortly! He is crawling all over the house and getting into everything. Aubrey certainly isn't up to his speed, but she's really progressing. So we decided it was time to get the walkers out of storage. They are so excited that they can now push themselves all over the house! Of course Mia always finds a way to get in on the action...

Reminiscing!


It's so fun to watch Mia's reaction each time we bring out one of her old toys for the twins! She reminisces for a bit, claims them as hers, and then slowly embraces the fact that she has to share... Here she is fitting in a 12 month old walker! Yep, that's our big girl. You'll notice she hooked a small chair to the back of the walker and told us she was driving a bus!
