Happy 6 Months to our sweet littlest babies!

How is it possible that Jakob and Kaleb are 6 months old? I remember when I was pregnant, Marcin and I said we just need to make it to 6 months and stay sane lol WE MADE IT BABE!!! The first 3 months were definitely the hardest but after that we all started to adjust to the two new precious lives in our family. As crazy as our house is, I wouldn't have it any other way! Now that we have 3 kids to keep up with, I realize just how much time I had when it was just Gavin :-D What did I do with all that free time?!

Jakob and Kaleb's personalities are definitely starting to show, they show us more and more each day! They are both little comedians!

Kaleb is the big cuddly bear. He got some catch up vaccinations last week and weighed in at {eh hem} 22 LBS! And is already wearing mostly 12 month clothes, geez! So much for him sharing any of Gavin's baby clothes :-P He loves to watch us until we look at him and then will give us the biggest grin! He is more of a brute, he is rough with toys...slapping at them, pulling, grabbing, throwing toys down, etc. He loves the jumper! You would think he would have a big belly laugh but his laughs/giggles are more on the quiet side, sort of like he is laughing to himself and only he gets the joke:-) He will sometimes roll from tummy to back but I think he's got too much weight to get from one side to the other, hehe. And he recently discovered his toes, loves them!

Jakob is the mover which might explain why he is a few pounds less than Kaleb, lol! He also got the catch up vaccination last week and weighed 17lbs! He is able to wear Gavin's baby clothes, thankfully! Saving money is always good :-) He is constantly moving his legs or swimming in place, loves to stand up, just figured out how to roll from tummy to back. He seems to be more gentle..he will touch something before playing with it, doesn't really throw/drop toys- he keeps a good hold on them,etc. He also loves the jumper :-) Jakob's entire face smiles when he smiles and he has the cutest loud giggles! Also a big fan of his toes :-)

Jakob and Kaleb are awesome sleepers, just like their Big Brother! They sleep thru the night and take good naps :) There are some rough days here and there but overall, they are awesome, laid back babies. When I was pregnant I was seriously worried how these babies would be. You know how they say if you have a easy first baby, the 2nd (and 3rd in our case) will not be so easy? So much for that....all three of our babies are wonderful and laidback, thankfully!

They both love their Big Brother Gavin, Gavin loves to jump around to make them laugh, talk to them, show them how to hold things and plays his instruments for them. They already watch him with such fascination in their eyes, I know I am trouble when they start imitating Gavin :-)
The babies have also started to notice each other more which has to be one of the cutest things! Usually one will be in jumper and one in exersaucer, they love to see each other jumping around. When they are laying or doing tummy time on floor, someone is always grabbing the other hands, ears, nose, heads, toes, arms....any body part that is available. So cute!

Look at how much Jakob and Kaleb have grown in the past 6 months, I still cannot believe they are 6 months. I feel like they will be 1 year old the next time I turn around. They are all growing too fast, I love to watch them grow and learn new skills but couldn't it slow down  just a bit?
