5 months

It was 5 months ago, these two joined our delightful little family,
they looked much different back then....

(different days-similar results)


...now they are loved from head to toe by their brother & sisters, and it shows.


This is Gwenyth (or Gwenie).

Titus, who can't say G's, calls her Denny. He comes bounding up to her and says with enthusiasm, "Hey Denny!" When she's crying, he says, "No, no, no Den. Shhh Denny!"
We call her The Queen. She is very stately in how she carries herself. She wants what she wants, when she wants it. She is loud with her joy and loud with her sorrows. She is social. She can roll over & over. She is trying to crawl. Prefers to sleep on her stomach. She loves to smile a big open mouth smile. Here is an example of a rare, closed mouth smile with bubbles coming out...



This is Nehemiah.

That's what we call him, except for Titus, he calls him Miah.
Nehemiah weighs a whole pound less than Gwen. He is more picky about when he smiles, but when he does, his whole faces gets involved and we just love it. He has a quiet cry. He loves to snuggle (he'd spoon Gwen every night so tightly that he'd wake her up, finally we had to separate them). He can roll over, but really never does. He is mellow about most things (including being decorated with pink hats). He can suck his thumb & we wish he would teach Gwen.


They both sleep around 10 hours a night and
never seem to sleep during the same time during the day :(
They are loved very much and make for great centerpieces for us,
during dinner time, in their Bumbo seats.


We love you Gwenyth (Denny) & Nehemiah!
Happy 5 month Birthday!
