Month 7 With Twins

Hello my wonderful readers. I cannot believe these twinnies are 7 months old! The time is going by so fast its crazy! I'm starting to think of what to do for their first birthday, its all so exciting! You know I will try to do posts about getting ready for that.

Diaper Size:
Andrew - in size 2 disposables but wearing cloth all the time except occasionally at night a disposable
Juliet - just went up to size 2 disposables, wears cloth all day and wears a disposable with a cloth diaper cover over it at night (this is what works for us that we already had on hand so we have stuck with it for about 5 months now)
Both are still on the first rise snap on their cloth diapers, I might have to split the diapers soon because Andrew may need to move to the next snap soon.

Clothing Size: always depends on the brand and how it fits over a cloth diaper
Andrew -  6 and 6-9 month clothes
Juliet - 3-6 and 6 month clothes

Sleeping:
Andrew - Sleeping through the night in his crib in the kids room with his big sister
Juliet - Sleeping through the night (most nights) in the pack n play in our room still. We tried one night in her crib in the kids room and she was up all night crying, we are going to try again soon. She will not sleep on the pack n play mattress which is flat as a board, thankfully since we have mini cribs for them her crib mattress fits perfect in the pack n play so she does sleep on that so hopefully it will be a little easier to transition soon.
Both take their morning nap in their crib in the kids room together, their afternoon nap is in our room or in the swing at the moment because of big sister being in there it's crazy.

Feeding:
Andrew- Eating 5oz of formula every 2 hours and 7oz in a night time bottle. Eating purees at dinner time from a spoon.
Juliet - Eating 4oz of formula every 2 hours and 7oz in a night time bottle. Eating purees at dinner time from a spoon very good.

Routine: We are still on the same schedule as before.

Firsts: First Overnight Trip & First Father's Day, First 4th of July & First Picnic (see other posts about all of these)

Movements: They are both crawling. They both roll really well to get to where they want to go also.

 Big sister loves her little siblings so much, she cuddles them and covers them up all the time and reads to them while they eat.

 I have to say they are so much more happy than Penelope was when she was a baby, they are pretty smiley majority of the time.

 This bouncer that used to be Penelope has been a lifesaver and they love it. Andrew has also turned into quite the thumb sucker when he is sleepy.

 This is Juliet's very serious look, we laugh every time she does it haha.

Here I am reading them a story before bed because they didn't fall asleep for once while eating their bottle.
Hope you enjoyed this update on them. Lots of Love to you and yours!
