I've doubled the amount of food that I've been giving them. Now they have full 3 meals a day, and I'm throwing in things like coconut oil, quinoa, molasses, goat meat, okra, melon, cranberries, papaya, goat cheese, egg yolks, etc. Michael eats as much as Sonja so it really boggles me why he still weighs less.
Sonja grabs whatever she can that will assist her in standing up. Michael pulls himself too but not so much. He prefers to get under tables and chairs where he often gets stuck or he lies by the kitchen gate and opens and closes it and chews on its rails. I guess he is teething--he hasn't gotten his first tooth yet. His other favorite place is the shoe rack by the entrance door and the box filled with books that he climbs into to play with books and whatever toys happen to be there.
Bathroom is still both Sonja and Michael's special place. As soon as someone opens the door to go in, they hear it from wherever they are at the moment and instantly appear together! I have to keep them out since, of course, they immediately go either for Nikolas's potty of the toilet brush!
The twins can entertain themselves for good chunks of time without asking for attention or to be picked up. I can easily let then play for 45min at a time. That's assuming that they don't see me--as soon as they do, huge smiles spread over their faces and they speed-crawl towards me or towards whichever gate is separating me from them and climp up and smile and giggle at first, then soon make sounds between calling and crying until they completely lose patience and demand to be held even if I'm talking to them the whole time.
