Fun in the sun

A few new pictures of the girls- we had a nice, sunny weekend.

This weekend was nice and sunny here in Lynn.  Our back porch gets lots of morning sun, so Jay decided we should all go out and enjoy it.  Margie and Sam got the girls the cutest sun hats, so we had to use them in the sunshine.  Here's a little video of our time on the porch:

Some more photos are here.  Enjoy!

6 months old!!!

Happy 6 months old to Maya, Hannah, and Fiona!

I can't believe my little bitty girls are a half a year old.  They're getting big- and tall!

Some updates from the pediatrician:

Maya- 11 pounds, 4 ounces; 22.75 inches

Hannah- 12 pounds, 11 ounces; 22.75 inches

Fiona- 11 pounds, 11 ounces; 22.25 inches

They're still small compared to full-term 6-month olds, but compared to their adjusted age of 4 months, they're beanstalks!  Tall and skinny.  They all gained a lot of weight in the last 2 months, but they grew over 2 inches each, which is a lot.  Maybe we have the future Lynn girls basketball team on our hands.

Here are a few pictures from the beach:

All 3 girls together, then Maya, Fiona, and Hannah:

Happy birthday, big girls!

Giggles

The girls are all doing great.  They slept through the night last night, from 8pm to almost 8am, with one binky replacement.  I'm so proud of them!  We all needed the sleep.

For reasons that escape me, Hannah and Fiona now giggle when you stretch their legs.  It's really cute, so we couldn't help but try to catch it on video.

Movie time

A couple of quick videos, mostly of Maya and her verbal skills.  The first is a video of Jay talking to Maya, as well as our puppy Bella saying hello to Hannah and Fiona.

And here's a video of Maya in her swing, talking to her hands.  They don't always cooperate and follow her instructions.

Enjoy!

5 months old!

Happy 5 months to Maya, Hannah, and Fiona!

Not much to report, the girls are all drooling a lot and blowing nice spit bubbles.

Our new au pair, Kathleen, brought the girls some amazing hand-made outfits from her grandmother in Germany.  Here's a photo of the girls in their sweaters and hats- there are also matching mittens, scarves, and socks.

Can you believe in one month, they'll be a half a year old?

Rolling babies

We have 2 rollers!  Yesterday, Hannah rolled from her tummy to her back.  I didn't manage to catch it on video, but today Maya did it a couple of times, and I managed to catch it.  So far, Fiona just wants to giggle at the blanket instead of rolling over, but I'm sure she'll figure it out sooner or later.

Jodi's photos

Hi everyone!

The girls' aunt Jodi has some great photos that she put online.  Here's one as a sample, and the link to the rest of them.

Here's to hoping for warm weather so we can all get outside for some much needed walks to the beach.
