Our babies are five months old already-how did that happen. Life is like a whirl wind most days seem to end before it feels like they have begun. We are certainly enjoying have two new members to our family. We are however conditioned to Melissa and are having to remind ourselves on a regular basis that they are not Melissa and that we need to do things different with them.
Ruben and Tayla have such different personalities and they seem to do different things better then the other. Ruben loves to hold and chew on toys (I’m pretty sure he has started teething as he is drooling like crazy too). He went though a time when he smiled with his tongue sticking out it was so cute! He is much more of a talker then Tayla. He will look you straight in the eye and just talk, talk, talk.
Tayla is more intent on her surroundings she studies and tries to get everything around her. She has strength like I have never seen her huge thighs are all muscle. She prefers to stand and there are times that we can’t even get her into a sitting position. She smiles with her mouth open and it her eyes light up when she does just as Ben’s eyes do too. Tayla’s personality has mellowed while she is still out to grab everything the world has to offer and she still can go from 0-mad in 10 seconds she has discover her thumb and on some days her two fingers boy is she content with them. Ruben on the other hand would rather have someone comforting him.
Feeding is going great they are still on just breastmilk and other then a couple of colds they have been very healthy. Ruben is over 13lbs and Tayla is over 14lbs they are growing at about the same pace since a cople of weeks after being on, on demand feedings.
We are in Madison Wisconsin doing more treatments on Melissa right now and the babies are adjusting good.
