Graduation

Devlin's school had a graduation ceremony tonight for the Senior class and VPK students. Each class performed a dance to songs from a different decade. Devlin's class did a dance routine to songs from the 90's

6 months

It is hard to believe, but the twins are 6 months old today. I do not have official weights for them, but I would guess Colette is near 15 pounds and Griffin around 18. The twins are both teething. Griffin's bottom, right tooth came in about 2 weeks ago and his left, bottom tooth is close to coming through the gum. Colette's 2 bottom teeth should also be in anytime now. The twins have started to eat solids three times a day and tried finger foods for the first time today. We have also introduced the sippy cup to them.

Both babies are attempting to army crawl. It is only a matter of time before they are mobile. Griffin has mastered sitting up, but Colette is still working on it. She usually face plants after a few seconds.

Since the twins figured out how to roll from back to front and back again, they now sleep on their stomachs. Speaking of sleeping, they are pretty much capable of sleeping through the night. I say capable because some nights are better than others. Since they started teething they have alternated who wakes up at 4 am. Most nights they are in bed around 8 and will sleep until 6 or 7. Colette is like Bryan and prefers to party at night and sleep all day. Griffin is like me, he falls asleep early and wakes up early. 

The babies are starting to interact with one another, they have also started interacting with Devlin and it is hilarious to watch. I can only imagine what the next 6 months will be like.

Mighty Machines

Early Saturday morning, we lost power for about an hour. Later that morning four TECO trucks were parked in front of our house. Devlin was very excited and grabbed his hard hat and went outside to see if he could help. The TECO crew let Devlin get on the truck and gave him a flashlight and flag. They made his day, TECO rocks!

Dalmation puppy

This week was Student Appreciation week at Devlin's school. Today, the students were to come dressed as their favorite character from a book. Devlin wanted to be a dalmatian puppy from "101 Dalmations".

This was our test run with the face paint. We decided this was too much for school.

He was excited! Really, he was.

Notice the tail (and Coco).
