Loving Fall

We've had continued success with sleeping! Andrew slept alone in the nursery for a full week and we moved Paige back in last weekend.  I am VERY happy to report that they have both slept in their beds the entire night since then:)  This has made for a much happier, more well rested Mommy and Daddy!

Paige has made great progress with her developmental milestones and already reached my goal for her by her first birthday - CRAWLING!  She is SO proud of herself and is all over the place.  She will crawl fast and try to get you to chase her.  Its adorable.  And we are so thrilled that she's happily able to keep up with her brother a little better.  Now we've focused on helping her to pull up.  She understands the concept but just doesn't quite have the strength to do it yet.

Andrew is blossoming.  He is becoming very verbal - although everything is "BA BA."  And then he squeals with excitement.  He is cruising and walking pretty well attached to his walker.  He races up the stairs and will even balance a few seconds standing on his own.  He's amazing.

They now each have FOUR teeth in!  It makes them look so old and mature!  And they've gotten to try lots of big kid foods this week - we've done a little dairy with yogurts, they've had mac-n-cheese (although its organic whole wheat pasta with very little cheese), turkey hot dogs, pork, pumpkin, spaghetti, grapes and of course lots of streamed veggies. They have both been eating great - I'm hoping this means we are hitting a growth spurt.  We have our one year measurements coming up and are hoping they have hit the charts for their actual age!

We are having a great fall and are gearing up for lots of fun - a couple costume events including a "Multiples Party" with all twins and triplets, their first birthday party which is pumpkin themed, and a reunion trip to the NICU.  Lots of fun pics to come.  But here are a couple recent favorites -

Getting SO big!
