15 Weeks Old

Ruby & Charlotte are 15 weeks old today. New things from the past week include their first Christmas, doing their best to put their entire fists into their mouths, drooling, and high-pitched happy screams when looking at their mobiles. They have grown out of 3-6 month jeans in the waist area already, and I am not sure how much longer the other 3-6 month clothing items will fit. Enjoy the photos and video below.

14 Weeks Old

Ruby & Charlotte are now 14 weeks old. They are both quite determined to jam their hands into their mouths now that they are gaining better control over their movements. They are experimenting with different sounds and laughter. Already the 3-6 month size clothing is getting snug, though pants and sleeves are a bit long. Enjoy the photos and video below!

3 Months Old! (also 13 Weeks Old)

Ruby & Charlotte are 3 months old today. They are both starting to reach for toys and usually end up hitting them instead of grabbing (see videos below). We are working on tummy time, which Charlotte enjoys but Ruby does not feel the need to try too hard at right now. Laughter is one of the latest sounds they are perfecting, which is great. Enjoy the many photos from the past week!

12 Weeks Old

Charlotte & Ruby are 12 weeks old today. We are working on keeping them awake for longer periods during the day in hopes they will start sleeping through the night soon. There is a video after all the photos below to see them in live action (well, not much action yet but they're working on that)!

Patiently putting up with posing for my photo taking:

11 Weeks Old

Charlotte & Ruby are 11 weeks old today. They are "talking" and smiling a lot more. Charlotte is even attempting to laugh every now and then. Both are now wearing 3-6 month clothing, and have moved up to size 2-3 diapers. For the past week and a half or so, they are only waking once at night to eat, so all of us get a good 5 hour block for sleep, then a 4 hour one after the middle of the night feeding. Enjoy the photos!

Both like to look at their new mobiles:
