Gavin - 6 Months Old
We take him in for his next check up on December 10th.
Just two weeks ago he wasn't sitting for more than a minute or so, now he can sit forever it seems. Last week at music class I think he sat for 30 minutes. He is eating solids now and only really likes prunes and mixed cereal with fruits. He REFUSES to take a bottle and that is getting really hard for me. Hopefully he will get used to that soon.
My favorite thing about Gavin is that he is reaching, it is so cute to see him get excited to see you and reach to be held. He is still a little chunk, I think this is why he isn't rolling over much. He'll go from his belly to back and I know that he can go from back to belly but it's almost like he gets scared when he is nearly there and flops back onto his back.
He is so dang cute and so happy.

Alexa 2 1/2
Yesterday was Alexa's 2 1/2 birthday!
I wanted to share this cute video of her singing her new favorite song, "I am a Child of God". She started singing it out of nowhere while we were in Utah a few weeks ago. I don't sing it to her that often so I am not quite sure where she picked it up but she sings every word. It is too cute.
SCROLL DOWN TO TIURN OFF THE MUSIC ALREADY PLAYING
She still loves to sing all day every day, obviously. She also likes to dance a lot as well. Greg tells her that she is a modern dancer because of the weird way that she moves her body. It is really funny. She is over the Wiggles for the most part and really doesn't care too much for TV which is a good thing. She is obsessed with Princesses and MUST wear a skirt on a daily basis. If I need to get pants on her I have to convince her that they are "Princess Pants". She is my little Mommy and always wants to help feed, change and dress Gavin. She loves to bounce now too, our nightly routine is eat dinner then jump on the couch cushions. Her latest talent is drawing people, here is a typical picture. She said that this is Gavin.
Favorite food: Mac & Cheese, Favorite Drink: Chocolate Milk, Favorite Outing: Shopping, Favorite Color: pink or purple, Favorite Parent: Dad of course, he is the fun one. :) Favorite Songs: I am a child of God, Twinkle Twinkle and Happy Birthday, Favorite words: Totally & Actually, usually used together such as, "Mom you are totally, actually crazy."She is too funny and keeps us laughing all the time!
