Life has been so busy since the twins arrived. Beyond the time that it takes to care for two babies, I've committed to running the Under Ones playgroup for the Brisbane Multiple Birth Association-Westside. The group gets together twice per month at a couple of our local libraries. I've enjoyed meeting with other Moms of multiples.
Maxwell is still enjoying Montessori three days per week. He never wants to go in the morning but, as soon as he arrives, he's off to play with his friends with hardly a good-bye. His teachers are lovely: Tim and I are very pleased that he has the opportunity to spend a year there.
Max also hit a big milestone in June. We have a five-year-old in the family! We had a joint party with his buddy, Alexi, in the local park. It was the first year that we didn't host the party at our apartment. Gotta say--the clean up is much easier at the park :)
The girls are growing so fast! I can't believe how quickly these last seven months have gone! They are both starting to scoot around on the floor, have been eating solids for three months, and are working on sitting.
Addie is very smiley and outgoing yet she is also the first one to burst into tears when she is tired and amongst strangers. Elsa is a bit more reserved--she likes to observe the world around her with a poker face. Yet she always has a smile for Max--he loves to make her laugh (and laugh she does!).
