Playing Together!

With me being gone so much this past month (I was gone another 3 days last week/weekend for a swim meet in Iowa) the kids have learned that they can't always get as much attention as they would like and in turn have started to play with each other. Izzy has loved her big brother from the start but now she loves any attention she can get from him. Whenever he plays with her she lets out the loudest, and cutest, giggles that just make us laugh. Of course when we go to videotape it Robert is on to us and stops playing but we did get a short clip at the bottom of the page with a little giggle from Iz.

Izzy will turn 6 months this coming Sunday and is really finding her personality and becoming active. She almost has Robert's head scoot down and is starting to scootch all over the living room floor and her crib. She loves trying to sit up and playing in her activity gym to practice her standing. We also think teeth aren't too far away as her drool level has picked up and she loves chewing on things, her favorite is Sophie the Giraffe!

More Sophie Time!

Robert unfortunately has reached what we think is a jealousy phase. He was so good for the first 6 months but he's starting to act out a little more which might also be in part to me being gone so much. His favorite thing to do is play with Izzy's toys...as you'll see in the photos Eric has taken over the last week. We're hoping this is a short phase!

Had to use the dining room chair for help with this one!

At least they keep our lives interesting!!
