Hays...
- VERY active these days! During awake time he is going 90 to nothing! Now when I lay him on a blanket and walk out of the room, I come back and he has wiggled off the blanket! This morning I went downstairs to get my coffee and he had wrapped himself around the corner of his activity mat! He is hilarious!
- Has rolled over from his back to his front.
- Rolls back and forth from side to side all the time and loves it.
- Hasn't found his thumb yet, but is trying.
- His smile is more of a teased smile. He squishes his nose and squints his eyes when he smiles and it is precious!!
- He is a little more reserved about giving smiles away...Only smiles when you make eye contact with him. (this is why I can never get a picture of him smiling! When I hold the camera up, all he does is stare at the camera and think what is that thing??)
- Loves his daddy! He really does have a bond with Will and loves to smile at him :)
- Is always the first one to wake up. During nap he usually wakes up 30-40 minutes into his nap and moves around and watches his mobile. Sometimes will just fall back asleep, but other times will fuss for a few minutes and then go back to sleep. I think he is going to be our little morning person too!
Hunter...
- More laid back now. During awake time he just lays in the same spot and kicks his legs.
- Loves to coo!
- Will smile at anything and anyone.
- Has giggled a few times.
- He loves for people to talk to him and will listen intently.
- He is scared of things...He doesn't like loud noises or big groups of people. If either happens, he gets this look on his face, pokes out his bottom lip, and cries the most pitiful cry!
- Sucks his thumb a lot now. I used to put his paci in when I put him to bed and now he finds his thumb first.
- Has only rolled over from his stomach to his back and really doesn't even care to do that very often.
- He is going to be our little sleepy head. Hardly ever wakes up early from his nap! In fact, I usually have to wake him up because Hays is ready to eat. (Sorry, buddy! You're a twin!) A lot of times I also have to wake him up at 7:00 because Hays has already been up for an hour :)
- Loves his mommy! He really does prefer me over Will. Will even scares him sometimes when he is being goofy. I think it's funny, but it kinda hurts Will's feelings :)
They both reach for toys now and put them in their mouth. One of their favorite toys right now are these hand-made rattles that one of Will's Amish friends made for them. They are so neat and they have their names engraved on the top.
We go strolling around our yard every afternoon about 4:30. I wanted them to be able to enjoy outside and this is a great way to do it!
Will came home to stroll with us yesterday.
We strolled out to look at the garden. I've always wanted Dream Ranch to plant a garden so that all the employees' families could benefit, including myself :)
I pictured a small garden with just enough for the 10 or so employees they have. Well...Will is known for not doing anything small, so here is our garden...
I'm so pumped about it!!
Well hello there Darby! Love these last 2 posts!
ReplyDeleteThese boys are just precious, Hunter looks like you Will right now, will be interesting to see in a few more months how they change. There sweet little faces, the grin or smile they are beginning to respond a lot and I know you two are having so much fun. Yea the garden! God bless, you two looked great in all the "year pictures"--keep it up. I love you, Mimi Fairbank
