All Kinds of Changes!

It’s hard to know where to even begin in telling about all the changes that have taken place in Quinn and Keira over the past 3 weeks! Quinn is rolling over, sitting up with some help, almost crawling, he found his feet, and it’s like in the past few weeks he can REALLY see things! His world has completely opened up and he is loving it! He still loves to see people and will smile and laugh every time someone looks at him- he’s such the little socialite! He is still the super giant wonder baby weighing in at 17.5 pounds- only 10 pounds behind Keira! We are also starting cereal next week! I’m sure that he will catch up to Keira someday and I’ll get comments about my “cute twins.”

Keira is going through a language explosion! She knows so many words and signs! But if she can’t figure out how to say a word, she uses the sound “GAH” -so many things are “GAH” to her. It’s so amazing to see her watching me say words and then her trying so hard to imitate the sounds and mouth movements. Her favorite words these days are Elmo, UP, and Spoon - sounds like “soon” but pretty close! Many times she will talk all day to me and I can understand her words, but she gets performance anxiety around daddy- even though I SWEAR she had said something all day! Many words just mommy can understand! She is actually playing with other kids- and seems very interested in them! And she is finally able to entertain herself somewhat and really enjoys being in her room for some “her time.” She will take out, change, and play CD’s and read her books in her room- and she wants to be all by herself- nice for mommy!!! Now we just need to work on potty training, getting dressed, and using a spoon/fork.
