Spring time is here!

Here at the Belt house, we are so happy that the sun is finally out!  After weeks of rain, and being couped up in the house, it is time to go outside and enjoy the sun!  Each day this week, after I get home from work, my mom and I take Randy and Lexy outside so they can enjoy the sunshine.  It is so cute to see them react to something new.  They love being outside! I'm excited for them to be able to play around in the back yard and enjoy themselves.  Lexy does pretty good with the sun, just flinches a little, but them gets her eyes adjusted to it, but Randy, poor baby, he seems to have ultra sensitive eyes (takes after his daddy).  Every time we step out in the sunlight he squints really hard and his little eyes start to water.  Guess that just means I'll have to get him some pretty cool shades!!  :)

Here are some pictures of Randy and Lexy in their new toy, their red wagon!  They LOVE it already, even though they are still a little too small to hang out in it together.  But for the mean time, one at a time, or I, learned, that their car seats fit perfect!

Love their new toy!!  Can't wait until they can have fun in it together!

Along with playing with their new toy, I also broke out the umbrella strollers that my God mother Espinola got for them at my baby shower!  They loved it too!! These two love being outside.  Happy babies make a happy mommy!! :)

Lexy trying to decide which shooshoo (binkey) she wants! 

Randy is ready for a ride in his new umbrella stroller!

Let's go Mama and Avo!!

All tuckered out from the stoll around the nieghborhood!

Some of the new things that are going on with the twins are:

-Lexy is officially crawling!!  There is no stopping that girl.  Just the other day she was playing leap frog over her brother!  It was too cute and so funny to watch, but poor Randy,  he wasn't too sure about what was going on.

-Lexy is sitting up on her own!! She'll be crawling around and then all of a sudden, out of nowhere, there she is sitting up all by herself with no support.  This little girl is doing so much, so soon!!! 

-Randy is starting to get really good at rolling over from his tummy to his back!  He's been rolling over from back to tummy for awhile now, but it's taken a little while for him to get used to going to is back from his tummy.

-Both Randy and Lexy love to sleep on their tummies.  And when they sleep they LOVE their cribs!  There's nothing better to sleep in than their cribs!  I love it!

-Lexy is ready to chew gum... ok, maybe not quite ready, LOL!!  Her first tooth is coming through the gums.  It's the front left tooth on the bottom.  Crazy, that my little baby girl is getting her teeth already!  It seems like just yesterday they were born! (Time sure does fly by when your having fun!)

Lexy showing her pearly whites!  Ok, not quite yet, but there's a little one coming in! :-)

 

-Both babies LOVE LOVE LOVE music!  I will put them in their jumparoos and turn some music on and they have a blast!  Randy can usually last over an hour in his jumparoo.  He loves that thing!  And Lexy, more like 30 min. at most!  LOL, she's just such a busy little girl, can't stand doing the same thing for too long.

-They have both been eating solids.  They enjoy eating bananas, pears, prunes (too funny, and it's a nice little laxative too) :), apples, squash, sweet potatoes, carrots and Randy likes green beans and peas (Gerber Baby food).  Lexy is a little more picky.  They love their little finger food snacks and enjoy drinking water in between meals. Brandon gave them their first taste of an otter pop, Lexy loved it, Randy on the other hand loved the taste but wasn't too sure about the coldness of it. 

-On April 3, I gave Randy a taste of mashed potatoes and real carrots, it was funny watch his face.  He wasn't too sure about either one of them.  I'm not to sure he's ready for that consistency yet because after a few tries, he wouldn't even open his mouth, which surprises me because that boy can eat.  That same day I also gave them each a taste of banana pudding.  Yum Yum Yum!!  Lexy loved it!  Randy had just had his bottle, so he was full and wasn't hungry.

-April 4, I gave them both bananas in the little banana holder/squishy food thingy!  LOL oh my goodness did they LOVE the banana!!!!  They enjoyed being able to hold it by themselves and loved loved loved eating it!!!

Yum, Yum, Yummy!!!!!

Randy LOVED it and wanted MORE!!!

We Like to eat, eat, eat, apples and BANANAS!! 

-For my sister's birthday, we took my sister and her family (3 kids, a 6 year old, 4 year old, and a 5 month old) to Applebee's.  The dinner went great!  It was fun to have all the kids together and out and about!  Also, that was the first time Randy had a taste of a French Fry.  My sister gave it to him, and he seemed to enjoy it!  :)  What kid doesn't like French Fries!!  :)

Now that they are able to eat different things, my husband and I are having fun seeing what they like and watching their facial expressions on the things that they are not so sure of!  Too cute and so funny!!

One more pic....

My boy, at the K9 dinner, sporting his new hat!  Gotta be like daddy always wearing a hat!

Each day these little guys bring new and exciting things into our lives.  They are just so much fun and I count my blessings every day because the Lord has def. blessed me with two beautiful healthy babies!  I always say that my lucky number is 2, because everything comes in two's at my house now!  And I wouldn't have it any other way!  These babies are my true joy in my life!  I can't imagine my life without them, and I know their daddy feels the same way.  We are so blessed and I am so in love with my little family and am enjoying each and every day with them!

I will be posting a 7 month blog soon with more pictures and hopefully more videos!  I can't believe that my babies are almost 7 months old!  That's just crazy to me but man am I having fun!!!  :)
