6 months old

The past 6 months have flown by and the babies have gone from quiet non mobile babies to babbling moving babies.  The boys are starting to make out the "b" and "d" sounds.  They still love to mimic you when you stick out your tongue. We started the babies on solids in the morning for breakfast.  They have tried banana, peach, mango, pears and apples with cinnamon.  They haven't meet a fruit they didn't care for yet.  At night they are still eating their veggies.  Two of their favorites are butternut squash with carrots, apples and cinnamon and Sweet potato with leek, spinach and peas.  

You can put the babies at opposite ends of the room and turn around and find them rolling across each other.
We went for a walk down to our neighborhood park one day before it turned cold.  Luke and Evan enjoyed watching Wesley ride his bike along side us.  They can't wait to play on the park as well.

Evan has found his feet and loves to hold on to his toes.  He tested positive with the flu.  Thankfully it was a mild case and didn't last long.  He is starting to rock back and forth on his hands and knees.  When he is in the bath he loves to splash the water.  Laughs so hard at Wesley when he is acting funny.   He is working on sitting up by himself but hasn't mastered it yet. At the doctor this check up Evan weighed 17.13 lbs (80 percentile) and was 26.50 inches long (70 percentile). 
Luke has found his feet and loves to hold on to his toes. He had his first tummy bug that lasted for a very long time; 9 days.  We had to end up switching up a few things in his diet to help correct it.  He is now holding his body up in the bear position.  It wont be long before he is crawling or even walking.  We are working on sitting up by himself but he hasn't mastered it yet.  He loves to splash Wesley in the bathtub. At the doctor this check up Luke weighed 16.8 lbs (50 percentile) and was 25.75 inches (40 percentile).
