handsome boys in their new shirts (jaden's is 6-12months : 0)
GOOD MORNING happy boys
Jaxson attempting to hold his bottle 
Dad and Jaden making mom nervous but they love to play crazy with dad!So things have been going so great with the boys and they sure are growing up fast... Some new things the boys have been doing...
-Sleeping in their own room! They got moved into their own room about a month ago and have done great! They were getting too big for their play pin and we decided it was time for the transition. They have much more room and love it!
-Sleeping through the night! The boys have been sleeping through the night for about the last 3 weeks now. Mom and Dad love this. It is so nice to get some solid hours of sleep and feel somewhat normal again : ] They usually go to bed between 8-9 and sleep til 7-8. : ] On occasion they will wake up around 5 and need a diaper change and will eat as well but go right back to sleep. They are so funny in the morning because they don't cry when they wake up, the lay there and coo back and forth for about 20 minutes then they are over it and ready to get up! Since they aren't eating during the night they eat A LOT during the day, i feel like we are constantly feeding but it's all worth it to get that wonderful sleep we've missed so much. They also don't nap much since they are getting much more sleep at night. They will take one good nap in the late morning and then it's just little cat naps (15-30minutes) the rest of the day.
-Finding their voices! The boys are not only cooing all the time but they now babble and have an ear piercing squeal. The have little contest to see who can squeal louder and get mom and dad's attention. When we lay them next to each other on the floor they will have some pretty entertaining conversations, I would love to know what they are thinking as they are babbling back and forth with big grins on their faces.
-Using their hands! The boys love their hands, we got some thumb suckers for sure!!! Most the time now the will just spit their binkie out and go for the thumb. And they aren't quiet about it either, they really get to chomping and slobbering. They are also doing some productive things with their hands; picking up and playing with small toys, picking up binkies, stealing each others binkies and blankets, and holding hands : ] so sweet!!! they love to play on the ground and grab on each others clothes, hands, or anything in sight.

-Being Wiggle Worms! They have got some strong leg muscles and sure are using them now. They have learned to push up on their heels while they are laying on their backs and lift their butts up. They think it is very funny to do while we are getting them dressed or changing their diapers. If we just lay them down on a blanket they never stay in the same spot long. They love to scoot themselves in circles, we have to be sure to give them lots of space between them while on the ground otherwise they beat up on one another. Bath time is very challenging now that they are moving. They love the water and so they get very excited in the bath and get their legs kicking and bodies squirming. Another thing they have leaned to do is to use the blanket to pull themselves around during tummy time. They will grip onto the blanket, pull forward, and there they go. All this wiggling and moving is making me nervous for when they start crawling, how am i suppose to keep up with them and still get things done around the house? i guess we will figure it out. : ]
-Smiles & Giggles! We have got some of the happiest babies in town. They love to smile and have been giggling so much, it is so rewarding to hear your babies sweet little giggles. : ] Jaxson has actually been struggling with his bottles lately because he would rather just smile and giggle at you. It is so cute but I have to remind him he has eat too! He will do really good at the beginning then about half way through the smiles begin and it takes some time to get the rest down. The boys are giggling several times a day now and are very ticklish which makes it easy to get those giggles out. They smile anytime you talk to them, or even look at them. They are starting to smile for unfamiliar faces also. We are so blessed to have such fun and happy babies!
-Using those eyes! Just in the last couple weeks the boys are really starting to follow things with their eyes. The would do it on occasion but now anything crosses the path of their eyes they follow it. Jaxson is so cute about it... He will follow Trevor around in the morning with his eyes when he is getting ready for work then follows him out the door then just stares at it for a little bit like, where is my daddy going? Jaxson is big daddy's boy and Jaden is a momma's boy, although they both love us very much. : ] They are also focusing on their toys more and love to watch the tv, they have a favorite movie, Bolt. Whenever they are fussy or we need to get something done around the house we put that in and they are entertained!!
-Playing outside! We try to make it outside a couple times a week. They get so happy and excited when we do spend time out of the house. They are just so content and happy outdoors. Which is a very good thing!!!!
The days seem to be going by so fast... I can't believe the boys are almost 6 months old, really?
They are starting to change so fast and before we know it they will just want to run around and not snuggle with mom and dad. We try to get as much snuggles as possible because they are starting to think mom and dad are jungle gyms and like to try and crawl all over us when all we are trying to do is snuggle our little babies. Jaxson is still getting PT every other week but we are going to transition over to Infant Toddler Program this month and both boys will receive services. ITP is just an early intervention program that will watch the boys progress and provide services when needed. We are so proud how far they have come in last 5 months and are really looking forward to the next couple months when they hit some big milestones. : ]
