June is just about gone and the girls definitely learned some new tricks this month! The latest - and scariest - is that they're all trying to army crawl/scoot while on their bellies... don't you just wish you could pick which developmental items your baby learned first? I'd put the whole mobility thing on hold and concentrate on hand/eye coordination - specifically, holding on to a bottle and feeding oneself! Not that I don't [sometimes] enjoy snuggling the girls and giving them their bottle - sometimes it is quite nice. But when you have 15-18 bottles to do that with in one day, well, to be honest it can get a little tiresome. Especially with their new spitting skills - I'm not sure if that counts as a trick, and for Ryann it's definitely not something new, but they're all becoming master spitters. In other words - if you're coming to visit, bring an extra change of clothes (or 2), you're bound to get hit at some point!
The girls are all enjoying playing with toys - so fun to see which ones they hone in on and play with. Of course almost everything goes straight to their mouth, or is examined first to figure out which way it would fit best into their mouth... but all in all, still good fun.
We've heard belly laughs from all three girls - though not at the same time... yet. Ryann is still the easiest to make laugh - the other night she laughed for a good 20 minutes at anything and everything I did... and I'm not that funny. Daddy really gets the girls going - love to hear them giggling together... wait, Travis wouldn't like me to say giggling together - rather, laughing together!
We're beginning to pack up the house - and are trying to finalize our moving plans/dates... the logistics of getting all of us and our stuff from here to Omaha is somewhat interesting. Nonetheless, we'll be in Omaha in a couple weeks - so excited to be closer to family and friends! This is going to be a big month for the girls - hitting the 6-month mark, meeting lots of new friends and family... super exciting stuff!
