Buddies.

Emerson and Stella were 7 months old on Friday! They both have a busy week this week. They have developmental, occupational, and physical therapies, parents as teachers, and their last RSV shots. They will get weighed when they get their last RSV shots, and we will post their weights when we know them. They were also busy little babies last week. We have decided to try to take them out a little bit more now that the weather is getting nicer. They went to the accountant with us to finalize our taxes on Thursday, then they went to church and out to dinner on Sunday, and finally, they went to pick out their swing set for Mamaw and Papaw's house. (They slept in their car seats while cousin Ruthi tried out all of the swing sets.) We changed their schedules last week also. They are sleeping longer at night now, and they have been much more pleasant during the day because of it. They get four bottles a day, and then they get baby food at breakfast, lunch, and dinner. They are doing really well with their baby food. So far, they have tried rice and oatmeal cereal, green beans, bananas, and sweet potatoes. Stella prefers bananas and sweet potatoes, while Emerson seems to like anything we offer. Over the next few weeks we will probably also try apples, carrots, peas, and barley. They are both holding onto rattles and toys, and Emerson hit Stella in the head with a rattle last week and left a mark! They are getting to be such big girls!
