November 2007 Update

ok, so i have slacked quite a bit in my blog updates (as many of you have NOT failed to mention...) So i am going to create a few posts because there are way too many pics to fit in one post and i figure it will be easier to view chronologically.

... and a bit of an update for you... SARO IS CRAWLING!!!! he took his first tentative steps on Sunday night and has been improving every day. Ari is almost there too - i predict a few more days 'til i have two crawling babies. AAAHH!! :)

time flies...

Wow, time sure does fly. I can't believe it's been over a month since the baptism (and since my last post). The boys are doing well - we're eating solids twice a day now and they like it much better than before. They are also moving around quite a bit, though they are not quite crawling yet. They get around by going backwards, rotating on their tummies, and rolling over. Obviously, that means they aren't going anywhere very quickly but they can still get from one end of the playmat to the other on their own. (Whether they meant to or not is a different question!) They both get on all fours and rock back and forth, but they haven't quite figured out the hand movement of crawling yet... but it won't be long 'til they're all over the place and driving mom bananas!

We also have teeth! They both have the bottom 2 teeth now and Saro is working on some top teeth. We expect those out any day now because his poor gums are all red and swollen!

and everyone's favourite part of the post... some recent pics.

christening

On Saturday September 15th, Saro & Ari were christened. Overall, the day went well with only a little bit of crying from Saro around "bath time". Here are a few pics from the day.

If you have any pictures that you took, I would LOVE to receive them so please email them to me or burn me a CD or something! Thanks!

new pics

so you've heard/read about our feeding issues... since these guys don't really like to drink their milk, we're getting them to try solids. check out the pics below to see how our first few feedings went. :)
