5 Months (and a photo dump)

The girls turned 5 months old on February 10th! Wow! Time is absolutely flying. Flying, flying, flying. 

Anna and Brynn are just the cutest and most precious babies. They are really starting to be interested in the world around them and are getting pretty good at using their hands. They can reach and grab things pretty successfully which is neat! They are turning into busy little babies and it is fun to watch them grow. 

A smile from Brynn- tongue out and everything!

A sweet smile from Anna! 

I love the way babies start to get so chubby around this age. I want to know who took my baby and replaced her with this pretty little girl? I wish I could say that we are starting to see glimpses of how they will look when they are older but then I remember how Michael was so cute and chubby cheeked at that age and now he looks so different. 

I got these cute little vests at Carters and they are just so adorable. Bonus...they are excellent at hiding drool! 

Silly big brother! Michael is so funny when I am taking photos of the girls...he always wants to jump in, too. I think it is cute and I'm glad he understands that hey, this is my family and I'm a part of it too! 

Saturday is jammie day at our house. Poor Michael will only have photos of him in his pj's from his childhood. :o( He also made a cool laser gun out of...you guess it, an old box. Who needs toys? 

We are really enjoying having everyone healthy at our house. The above two photos are from when the girls were still feeling under the weather on a day I stayed home with them earlier in the month. They were just so miserable it was heartbreaking. It was so hard making it through those few weeks but now everything seems so much better....it is important not to lose perspective that yes, while you are in the thick of things it seems bad but after it is over it is no big deal. 

We might be out growing our swings! Noooo!!! 

That's it for me- thanks for letting me dump all my photos here. I'm trying to take "real" photos with my camera on the weekends. No matter how good I think my iphone photos look, my camera ones are always so much better. Time is fleeting and I am trying my best to try and capture it! 

Have a great weekend!
