At six months, Ross is turning into our little bean pole! He's so much leaner than Madeleine was at this age, and this week weighed in at just under 18lb.
He is starting to sit on his own for longer periods, and is still constantly watching Madeleine wherever she goes.
Madeleine still loves to hold and 'burp' Ross, but it's getting a bit more awkward now that he is getting bigger.
She gives him lots of nice kisses and thinks it's hilarious when he gives her a slobbery kiss back.
Ross is much more fair in skin tone than Madeleine and his eyes have stayed blue. When I'm out with them both, people often comment on how similar they look, and yet I don't think they look definitively like either me or Steve.
This week we look forward to picking Grammie up at the airport! My Mom is graciously coming back to stay with us for a month, to help me out with the kids and enable Steve to work even longer hours. Steve is in the writing stage of his PhD, and with this coming month of intense effort, we are hoping he will be able to submit his thesis by October.
