Little tidbits

I must say, I really love being a mother. My babies are so precious and sweet. I love the way they look at me. They look at me with such love and adoration that it is hard for me to soak it all in. I know it won't be this way forever, but man, I wish it would be!

My babies are 5 months old now, and are doing so many fun things! Andrew can now roll over, although he has only done it twice. I missed the first time because I was changing Matthew's diaper, but the second one I got on video. That was last week and I keep hoping he'll do it again, while at the same time, wanting him to stop, because I love their littleness.

Matthew can now blow bubbles and make raspberry sounds. It is very cute. I often stick out my tongue at the boys and do a little spitting sound. Matthew now sticks his tongue out, then pulls it back in and does a raspberry. He is so smart! He thinks he is doing what I'm doing. I still haven't been able to get him to do it on camera yet.

I love rocking them, and having them sleep on me- Matthew always finds the same spot on my shoulder, and Andrew loves his head on the top of my breast, and then curls the rest of his body around it- SO cute! Therefore, they both snuggle in their own way, and I am in love with both methods.

Although I think they are sweetest and cutest when they are sleeping, I find that I am excited when they wake up, because they are a lot of fun to play with and talk to. They are learning different and new sounds with their mouths and respond to me when I talk to them. In the early months, I didn't enjoy them being awake very much because the only thing they wanted to do was eat (and at that point, nursing was still very painful). Now, we play, go outside, talk, and really enjoy each other!
