We're Eight Months Old Today!

Happy New Year from Caleb and Bria! These babies are busy and it feels like the increase in activity happened overnight. They are now crawling and trying to climb over things, so we are busy keeping up. Bria can do the full-crawl and Caleb does a combination of an army crawl, full-crawl, and a swim crawl. They now eat baby food at breakfast and dinner. They adore big brother Tyson and love to play with his toys instead of their baby toys. They are drawn to the fireplace and any type of cord, so we have to be one step ahead of them all the time.

The past month was an eventful one…Christmas activities, twins’ 1^st Christmas, and first illnesses. Caleb had a sinus infection prior to Christmas which turned into a double ear infection a week after Christmas. Bria was diagnosed with the flu after Christmas which turned into a sinus infection a few days later. Then Tyson kicked off the New Year with a double ear infection as well. This was our first time experiencing multiple kids sick at the same time and it was trying, but luckily, Grandma Coburn stepped in and helped us out big time during the chaos of 3 sick little ones.

Caleb wants so badly to go in our bathroom



Bria just enjoys looking around while standing



Exhausted during dinner time



Bria likes her teething toys, while Caleb likes to chew on his crib :-(



Caleb's new signature move is to crawl over Bria



Poor Bria! Stinks being the youngest!

 

Caleb likes: trying to get to the lamp cord and trying to pull himself up…time to lower the crib!

Caleb dislikes: spinach baby food.

Tender moments: Watching Caleb try his hardest to stand up while holding onto things… just not quite there yet.

 

Bria likes: crawling and eating!

Bria dislikes: being sick… she usually is a great nighttime sleeper, but when sick gets up several times throughout the night.

Tender moments: If she is upset, Tyson will play his new harmonica and she’ll flash a big smile through her tears.
