4 Months and 1 Week

So many changes in such a short amount of time; these little ones are certainly coming into their own. They are SO different from one another, and so perfectly unique.


Solomon: He's definitely discovered his voice. He loves to "sing", chirp, squeal and make all sorts of high pitched noises. He's always ready to smile, and we've found he's quite ticklish under his chin. This gets him into a fit of smiles and giggles every time.
He's also discovering how strong his legs are. When on his belly, he likes to arch his bum into the air so his body is in a triangle and then roll over.
He loves to snuggle, and still is our little thumb sucker and "blankie" boy. He likes to have something snuggled up to his chest, as you can see in the photo below.
His eyes are changing from light blue, to green, to perhaps brown now but they are still changing. We can't tell what his hair color will be yet either! He is still about a pound lighter than his sister. He weighed in at 11 lbs. 9 oz. on Wednesday.



Sophia: She too is becoming audible, but in a different way. She likes to "hoot", almost like a hoot owl... a like "hoo, hoo, hoo" over and over again. She also is really picking up on our gestures too and beginning to mimic us.
Sophia really likes to be on her tummy, sturdy arms under her and head in the air, and just looks around. She's very perceptive.
She loves to smile, mostly with her mouth wide open, and definitely is the livelier of the two. She has bright blue eyes, and perhaps a bit of red in her blond hair! She weighed in at 12 lbs. 13 oz. on Wednesday.




Seeing these two grow and develop has been the joy of our lives. We are SO blessed!!!
