August Blossom: July 2012

Yup, the girls are 10 weeks old today! They are growing so fast and are movin' and groovin'...their arms and legs! At their 2 month check up, Cali weighed 10lbs. 1oz, was 21 inches long, and had a head circumference of 14 7/8 inches. Adison weighed 8lbs. 13ozs, was 20 1/2 inches long, and had a head circumference of 14 1/2 inches. They have both found their hands and are kicking their feet like crazy. They need one of those play mats where they can kick things. They are both starting to grab onto the toys hanging from their Baby Einstein play mat more and are watching their mobiles move. Cali is very much an observer and is constantly taking in her surroundings. Adison likes to look at herself in the mirror-she smiles at herself, which is super cute.

They are continuing to nap quite a bit during the day, but are definitely up more than they used to. While they are up we sing songs, read books, play on their play mat and do some tummy time. I lie them on their Boppy for tummy time and you would think they were going to take off. They like to push with their legs-so I constantly need to be right in front of them so they don't push off the Boppy!

We are also sleeping every night in their crib. They are doing very well with it and seem to enjoy being in their with each other. I try to give them room and separate them a bit, but when I come back to check on them, they are right next to each other! I caught Adison reaching her arm out to touch Cali the other night. I guess I put her too far apart from her sister!

On another note, to prove that they are growing, they no longer fit in their newborn clothes :-( The girls have moved on to 3 month size clothing...which means they get to wear all of their adorable summer clothes I received at my baby shower! That also means I have to pack up their newborn clothes. I can't believe how tiny they were!

Well...until next time...here are some recent pictures of the girls.
