Flagg Baby Update

Abby and Emily are now 4 months old! They have been learning a lot of new skills lately. Last time I blogged they had been laughing sporadically, but now they are cracking up on a regular basis. We discovered that they are ticklish also. They also love to have babbling conversations with us and each other. They sleep 10-12 hours a night which means that Byron and I are now finally able to sit down and watch a tv show or movie after they go to bed and not have to constantly rush to bed because we'll be getting up during the night with the girls.

Last week I was in Minneapolis for work, meaning that Byron was alone with the girls for the first time. The first night Abby got up once, which she hasn't done in many weeks, but the second night they decided to give him a break.

Yesterday Abby decided that it was finally time to roll over! Here's a video of her rolling. Better videos will be posted later.

Here's the latest bunch of pictures:

Byron thinks that baby socks should always be pulled up because their legs look so funny like that. Here's Abby with high socks on. Her legs are getting so chubby!

My mom has been having fun taking pictures of the girls in holiday headbands. Here they are posing for Easter a bit early.

When the girls lie down next to each other they usually have slap fights, suck on each others arms or link arms.

Abby and Emily were dedicated at church on March 1. Dedication is similar to an infant baptism or christening. An infant dedication is when the parents and extended family commit to raising their children in the Christian faith so that they can make a commitment and be baptized at a time of their choosing later in life.
