Photo time again!

Our little boys are getting so big. They are now 15weeks old (3.5months!) We can't believe how fast the time has gone. They are good boys (most of the time) and are getting good at giving lots of happy smiles. They are getting better at sleeping through the night. Last night they slept from 9pm till 7am!! woooohoooo!!!! In the last 2 weeks, they have slept 8-10 hours per night about 10 times. Us mummies are feeling good about our extra sleep.
The boys are eating (drinking) lots of milk these days. They like to drink about 200mls after their big night sleep, and then will drink between 100-200mls every 2-4 hours throughout the day. We've had to buy bigger bottles! Both boys are still having breast milk most of the time, with a little added formula from time to time when our supplies run low. We still think Benji is allergic to something, because his skin still has eczema in several places. We are going to a naturapath next week to get some advice. We think whatever is wrong with him also makes him feel sick, because he grizzles a lot more than Ethan (especially when his skin looks bad), and throws up a lot too. We hope to get some answers soon. Thanks to the advice of some friends, we have changed our laundry detergent. We're still slowly washing all their clothes, so we're still waiting to see if it will help.

Here are our handsome boys. Ethan on the left, and Benji on the right.

The boys like it when we put them on the kitchen table in their chairs. They smile and chat to us while we make dinner. Benji is giving us lots of smiles these days. He loves to talk, and can tell you any story in many different tones of voice, using the word 'agooo'. Everything is 'agooo' to Benji. Occasionally we'll get a 'bagoo', which is his way of asking for his dummy. If he's mad at us and we're not doing what he wants, he will also add an 'en-geg-an'. He has also made a charming discovery. He now has the ability to say 'agooo' in the back of his throat while gurgling his saliva. Lovely!!! He thinks it's very funny. Cheeky boy. See the videos below.

Here's our cheeky smiley boy. See how his tongue is going towards the side of his mouth. He now has the skill of poking out his tongue while he has his dummy in his mouth. No dummy here, but you get the idea!

Benji smiling
Benji smiling again.

Handsome Benji in his new clothes. We needed to dress him like a little boy because lots of people at the shops keep thinking he's a girl cos he's got pretty blue eyes. Poor boy!

Here's Benji with his toys. Both boys like their toys now. The toy under his right hand makes a crinkly noise when you touch it, he sat there for 10 mins feeling it the other day. He thought it was very funny.
Ethan also loves his toys..... even more than Benji does. He can now pick things up and likes to taste everything! His favorite toy is the puppy on his left. It is very soft, and he will spend ages feeling it. He likes to feel and grab different fabrics and will try to pull his bib, clothes or blanket over his head. We have to make sure his blankets are tucked in well. He also puts his puppy on his head too! He thinks it's funny.

Ethan is beginning to really enjoy his toys now, and will spend ages talking to his toys. He has a toy bar that hangs over his chair and he loves to hit his toys and make them move, then laugh and talk to them. He keeps him self amused for half an hour and has a lovely time. It's so funny.

Ethan again with his puppy friend.
Below is a video of Ethan talking to his toys. Notice he's also pulling on his shirt.

Here's Ethan laying on a blow-up toy. It's like a cylinder and he can stand up and lean against it.

Smiley Ethan again.

Below are two videos of the boys talking. They are getting more and more chatty every day and are now starting to make some different noises too. They are both very different in the way they talk. Benji, as you've seen says 'agooo' and Ethan's words are more like 'oooooo'.
