The Date Gap Says it All

So it is now into June an I haven't blogged, tech or otherwise, since March. Simply put, the girls have changed our lives.

I remember someone telling me to write down the little things they do so we have a record of their growing up. And well of course a good way for that is here.

Now at just over 4 months old the girls are getting bigger and more interactive as time moves. They are attracted to light, kind of like moths. Funny really, and especially the blue circle light on our media server.

Cie in the past week has started to talk to us, it's all babbe of course, but she holds the cheekiest grin and chitters away with a smile waiting and responding to our equally funny noises and statements about her. That is lots of fun. She doesn't seem to get the same response from Willow of course, but none the less tries with all determination.

Willow this morning really caught my attention. Sitting on my lap, but bent right over so she was almost head on her feet, her hands were in her typical scheming position (plotting to take over the world, or her mouth).. her eyes were deep in concentration at one foot, it wiggled. Then she would stop the wiggle, look at the other foot and wiggle it. Back and forth this went, sure enough she caught one foot wiggling out of sync with her viewing and quickly moved her head to look at it. It caught her by surprise, but none the less, she started again with a deep concentration. Stared at her foot, wiggled it, then moved to stare at the other and wiggle it. This was the moment Willow discovered her feet. Funny thing is that they were pink and fluffy as she was in her bunny bedtime wondersuit.

The girls love Mike the monkey. He hangs from the mega jungle gym and they grab his legs and pull as hard as they can. Also a favourite of the past week has been a green Lamaze Octopus. Big eyes, Cie and Willow just love it, staring at it and watching it and scrunching the legs.

We absolutely adore them. Night all
