Our kiddos are 6 months old!! Hooooooow did it haaaaaapen so fast? I just don't know. Part of me can't even imagine life before them - like they have always been a part of our family - but part of it seems like they were just born yesterday!
Little Miss Noelle
Nicknames: Noelley, Noelle Bell, The girl, Missy girl, Pie, Angel Pie
Noelle has the most amazing laugh. When she thinks something is funny she laughs and has this hilarious little hiccup at the end. It really is the sweetest thing. Noelle slept through the night for the very first time on 10/15. 8 pm - 6:30 am without a peep. She typically wakes up once around 3 AM, so I am hoping this is a trend that sticks around. Last night she slept 8 - 5, and fell back asleep until 8. Progress! Noelle loves her blocks, sophie giraffe, being held and carried, watching Keegan bounce, playing with her fingers, rolling and inching her way around, music, and eating! She does not like the hours of 6 pm - 8 pm (hehe), when mama and daddy walk out of her sight, waking up hungry, and spitting up. (Although her acid reflux is SO much better recently yay!)
Noelle is on the move. She will scoot her way across the blanket to get to what she wants, and she is constantly rolling back and forth. We are on baby-proof mission this weekend!
Her hair is getting longer, and pretty soon a clip will work I just know it! No words yet but lots of babbling and cooing, blowing bubbles, and 'talking' to her animals. She is our princess, a daddy's girl, amazingly sweet, and keeps us on our toes. Man oh man, the girl can really get our attention when she wants it....
Mr. Keegan
Nicknames: Keegs, Chunka, Chunka Munk, Munka, Keegan Lee
Keegan is just a fun, funny kid. He wakes up smiling and rarely gets upset. He thinks everything is hilarious, and gives the most adorable hugs already. Our 'little baby' can now wear 9 month and even some 12 month clothes. Keegan sleeps pretty good - usually from 8 pm - 7 am without a fuss. He had a mega cold last week which he did NOT like. It kept him up a lot at night and he was just not a happy camper. Not fun at all. Keegan loves his jumparoo, exersaucer, singing puppy, laughing, and stroller rides. He does not like wet diapers, stuffy noses, when mama and dadday are out of his sight, and sitting in his bumbo.
Keegan is also a rolly polly - rolling all around and scooting in circles on his belly to get to his toys. He can also sit up un-assisted for a little while before toppling over. Getting him to laugh is one of the best things ever, and I have loved watching his personality continue to grow.
We introduced veggies this past month and so far they have had: sweet potatoes, carrots, squash, summer veggie mixture, peas and pears. Their favorite was pears and carrots and their least favorite was the veggie mix. I have also let them try drinking a bit of water from a sippy cup which Keegan thought was awesome and Noelle was not the least bit interested in. :)
Last weekend we went to our first pumpkin patch with their Mimi, Aunt Jenn and cousins Connor and Molly. This weekend we are heading to their first Blue Grass Festival with their Netta and Grandpa. What an awesome month of family fun.
