Day 182 - Six Months Old (yesterday)

Yesterday marked the sixth month since Andrew and Emma were pulled from the innards of Lisa's abdomen. Although the days are a blur (since my astigmatism has worsened), when I take a moment to think of how the kids have changed it has been quite drastic. Fresh out of the womb, they were these little blobs that just pooped and peed. Six months later, they are these larger blobs that can grab their poop and touch their pee.

Not only can they grab and touch their surroundings, but they are slowly developing personalities. Andrew seems to be a pretty happy-go-lucky fella, but when he's frustrated or wants something he has no problem showing his feelings through furrowed eyebrows and vocalized screams. As for Emma, her first few months were relatively difficult for us. She always needed to be held, rocked, and fed (duh!). But now she has become this very content, happy girl who at times cries less than Andrew.

Here are a couple of pictures of the kids with pictures of them at one month old for comparison.
