Crawling and Climbing

This week Jackson has gotten the hang of crawling, pulling up on anything and anyone. He is at his best when he is footloose and fancy free. Matthew is the King of sitting. He teters and balances like a pro. Madeline is taking her time still. She rolls wherever she wants to go. They are all enjoying their new entertainer/walker like toys.

We went to have another round of Synergis injections this week. Madeline is now weighing 16lbs 1.5ozs, Matthew 14lbs 11ozs and Jackson 15lbs 4.5ozs.

They are still struggling with issues with their gums. Madeline is getting up multiple times in the night. Jackson now only gets up if he needs help finding his pacifier. He sleeps through the night more often now. Matthew fights the process of getting to sleep but when he's out its for the night. Due to Matthew's large hernia he continues to wet the bed because his navel pushes his diaper down.

Madeline loves television and is now responding to things she find amusing. Matthew and Jackson play really well together. They love music and flash cards. I think Madeline loves the flash cards the most. There is a lot of babbling going on these days. Only a few melt downs. Keeping to our schedule is key.

They will be eight months old on Sunday. I'm so happy and feel blessed with the progess they are making and the help we are receiving from my parents, in-laws, aunts and friends.
