seven months

zach and zoe have started on solids and seem to love it...some things noticeably more than others. we're introducing one new food a week, so thus far, they've had rice cereal, avocado, sweet potato and oatmeal. their hands down fave is sweet potato! i've got some carrots actually steaming as i write this, so that'll be the food of the week.

zach has sprouted two teeth and thankfully, doesn't seem to be terribly bothered by them. he's not quite sitting up yet as he has a lot of weight to support, but in due time! :) he is just the sweetest thing...always smiling and so patient! might i add he's our thumbsucker...the boy loves his thumb!

his sister on the other hand, is getting to be quite the handful...she's nonstop! as lin likes to call her, she's our "supergirl!" zoe naps maybe an hour total each day and goes just like the energizer bunny! she's always looking for what she can get into next and is such a curious little thing! she's so much fun to watch and play with, but there's just zero down time with her!

we're just starting to see a tooth coming in for her, and she just developed some congestion, so i'm thinking it's a result of her tooth, but can't be certain. poor thing is all snotty and stopped up, but can't say that it's slowed her down any!

work for me has been ridiculously busy, so i'm still trying to get this whole work/life balance thing figured out. i tell you what...it's not easy! i have a lot more respect for working moms now as a result! it's tough to be and give everything to both sides, but you just gotta do what you gotta do i suppose!
