Hello everyone.šŸ‘‹šŸ» Bennett and his two teef w Hello everyone.šŸ‘‹šŸ» Bennett and his two teef would like you to know that it is not bed time, despite what mom thinks about it. Everett the marshmallow sleep suit baby agrees. They have made a pact to scream in unison for as long as it takes to get their point across. Twins vs Mom: two-nil.
First food at just over 6 months old! What do you First food at just over 6 months old! What do you think they thought about it? #twinmom #homemadebabyfood #boymom #twinboys #firstfoods
A whole family of boys with the best damn eyelashe A whole family of boys with the best damn eyelashes you’ve ever seen and it’s obvious who they got them from. šŸ‘€ It definitely wasn’t me. #eyelashesfordays #twindad #twinmom
I never want to forget how they look at each other I never want to forget how they look at each other. šŸ„¹šŸ«¶šŸ» #twinmom #boymom #sweetbaby
In a moment of desperation, I scooped Bennett up w In a moment of desperation, I scooped Bennett up while I was nursing Everett and managed to tandem nurse them. I haven’t enjoyed tandem nursing so I haven’t forced myself to do it. I enjoy the one on one time with them anyway. But they’re starting to notice more and more that the other one is eating while they wait their turn. And today I found that at 6 months old it’s a lot easier to nurse them at the same time. They can sit up a bit, I don’t have to use a feeding pillow or roll up blankets to put under their heads. It was actually really peaceful. They both fell asleep snuggled on me and that doesn’t really happen usually because I typically hold one at a time.🄹

So maybe this will be a new thing for us now. I am proud of myself because I haven’t paid much attention to what I *should* be doing. I just do whatever works for us. šŸ’•
My @tubbytodd order arrived today! A friend (yay @ My @tubbytodd order arrived today! A friend (yay @amandariley_10!) porch dropped some All Over Ointment for us because Bennett’s eczema on his face was out of control. Swipe to see what he woke up with over night vs one day of using Tubby Todd vs several days. I did put a little bit of the hydrocortisone cream on it that my pediatrician prescribed on the first day, but that legit never does anything hardly. So I know this is really working! I’m so excited to use the body wash on the kids as well and I may keep the Suds Stick for myself because Coconut & Sea Salt sounds heavenly. If you suffer from eczema - you NEED this!
I didn’t manage to take an official *6 Month* ph I didn’t manage to take an official *6 Month* photo today but here is one of Everett and Bennett playing on their mat during tummy time earlier! Everett is battling an ear infection and Bennett got his first two bottom teeth a few days ago - so there’s lots of fussiness over here! Bennett is still sleeping through the night 100% from 7ish PM to 8 AM! Meanwhile, Everett has been waking up every 1-2 hours the past few nights to nurse. 🄓

I can’t believe they’re already six months old! It’s so much fun to see their personalities shining through. Everett needs lots of cuddles and really likes sitting in the sit me up seat to play with toys. Bennett can be content to swing or chill on the twin z pillow for a lot longer and he loves pat-a-cake. They both love all the attention they get from Landon and Cohen! It’s hard to remember life without them. I’m so blessed to be their momma. šŸ’• #twinmom #momoftwins #boymom
We love this house so much but it has been one hel We love this house so much but it has been one hell of a ride ever since we moved in back in 2019! Not pictured: the oven catching on fire and the upstairs toilet raining through the basement ceiling. šŸ„“šŸ˜… The pipes bursting in the basement a few nights ago sealed the fate of the carpet.. so here we go on another adventure! #homeowners #whatsnext #diyhomeprojects #lexingtonky
