Easter Long Weekend

The weekend started on good friday with an awesome twin mommy walk by the river.  We walked for almost two hours!  The weather was great and all six of the babies were pretty well behaved!

The girls are starting to nurse really fast (sometimes five minutes!) and solids seem to be filling up their tummy.  So we decided for the first time to skip one of their milk feedings in the early evening and replace it with solids.  We went out for dinner for the first time as a whole family with the girls wide awake.  They ate solids and played well at the restaurant.  Naomi also decided to take a catnap while she was there.

We also had a family bbq for easter lunch and chilled out on the deck with the girls.  Here's the trio with our cool sunglasses.  Naomi is looking very posh and Keira is looking very cool.

Keira also decided to try on a new hat, we are known as the family with cool hats.

On monday night, Guinness was a good sport and allowed Keira to piggy back him!

The girls had their six month shots and they were not happy. However, they quickly recovered and smiled within minutes.  Keira is catching up in terms of growth, she's now 15 lbs 1oz and Naomi is 16 lbs 4 oz.  As for head size..they have BIG heads.  Compared to other six month olds, they are in the 90 to 95th percentile.  The girls are also growing like trees.  Naomi is taller than Keira but both of them only fit nine month clothing!!  

I also tried buying better fitting sunglasses for them, but they are almost too small!  I guess its not a surprise eventhough the glasses are made for up to two years old.  Here's a quick picture of them with the baby banz sunglasses.
