She sits! She sits!

are sitting up!
Sophie is a little bit better than Lillian, but they can both do it for about 30 seconds at a time.

Today is/was a big day for the girls. They got official 'graduation' certificates from baby rehab {really, they told us to put them in their baby books. Too bad they've got empty baby books....}, and the verdict is still out on whether or not they need helmets. Their heads change so much in a matter of a few days and they're right on the borderline of needing them. We go later today for their 6th month appointment and are going to ask the pediatrician's opinion on what to do. I'd really like to avoid the helmets, but if they need them, then of course we'll do it. The physical therapist said that they don't always give helmets to babies with as mild measurements as they do, so hopefully we'll be able to bypass them.

In other news, Sophie rolled from her back to her stomach last night. Thank you crib bumper pad for being the motivation for that one. Hopefully Lillian will do it soon too.

I'm almost finished with my updated cloth diaper post and have 4 other posts waiting to be finished in my drafts section. I feel like all I do is change diapers and blog, but yet I'm so far behind.

  2. Isn't sitting like the most wonderful thing? I think it's my favorite milestone because they're finally to the point where they can entertain themselves and see the world, but they're not mobile yet.

    And Ellie STILL has yet to roll from back to front. Zero interest. So, go Sophie!

  3. Girl I still don't have baby books for either of my children. One day.

    And Matthew is out of the range of "needing" the helmet too but she said he could still possibly get one for night times. So maybe a compromise might be what your girls need. Not all day helmets, but for night. Matthew's head changes a lot too. We might be doing the helmet thing all day though. Hopefully not! We'll see soon enough. GOOD LUCK!
