8 months old

The girls are 8 months on September 22, and wow they are growing and changing every day.

The current schedule for feeding is 6am, 9am, 12:30, 4pm, 7pm and a dream feed at 10:30.  The girls get solids at lunch time.  Anna enjoys around 4oz at each feeding and Kathryn enjoys around 6oz at each feeding.

We took the girls to the doctor because they had a cold.  Anna weighs 12.95 pounds.... almost 13 pounds.  Kathryn weighs 18.85 pounds, almost 19 pounds.


They enjoying sitting up in their bumbo seats for long periods of time.  They also enjoy playing in their exercausers.  They bounce up and down and enjoy it when the toys light up and play songs.

They can roll over, but only do so strategically.  If Kathryn is playing on her stomach, which isn't her favorite position to play in, she figures out how to roll over onto her back.  However, because she prefers playing on her back instead of tummy time, she does not like to roll over onto her stomach.

Anna flips back and forth on her stomach, especially in her crib.  When she is fighting going to sleep she will roll over back and forth.

They have very strong legs, and when they lay on their backs they push themselves into a bridge position and can scoot on their back.  Sometimes they scoot in circles and sometimes they scoot up.

It is scary to start to think they may be mobile soon.

They enjoying playing with each other on the floor and they often try to trick each other into giving up their toy.  There is definitely a size difference but in these pictures, they are starting to look more like identical twins.
