The past two weeks have been incredible in terms of firsts. Our babies suddenly became toddlers and, although we’re documenting as much as working parents can, we’re not sure when or how it happened. Here are some important dates for 2009:
May 15: Scarlett waved and said, “bye-bye” when I left for work in the morning.
May 15: Dominik’s first clap.
May 17: Scarlett’s first clap.
May 20: Dominik pulled himself up to his knees.
May 22: Dominik pulled himself up to standing.
May 24: Dominik began crawling!
May 29, 6:41 p.m.: Scarlett took her first step! (M.J. and I both got to see it.)
Also, after almost 11 months of having to rock the twins to sleep (for 20 + minutes for each of their naps (which only lasted 20 minutes)) we decided to do some sleep training using Sleepy Planet techniques. Now they take simultaneous naps twice a day for at least an hour each. Yay us!
Oh, and Scarlett still has no teeth!

Yay for sleep! I had never heard of Sleepy Planet. I will check them out.

Dom’s bottom is out of focus in the crawl pic; does he swivel like Elvis?
