October 08

Here are some of our latest pictures....the babies are 7 months old already. They are eating baby food, sitting up by themselves, playing and starting to get into all sorts of mischief. Erin is crawling...sort of. She does an army crawl, but it gets her around. She follows me from room to room and tries to grab my pant leg. She is like a little puppy. I feel bad when I turn around and go back into the other room right after she's worked so hard to get to where I am! Emily can sit up well and get from laying down to sitting up, but doesn't seem to have as much interest in moving yet. Both girls are staring to try to climb up onto the fireplace ledge (about 6 inches up). Erin may really do it in the next few days. I am just worried they are going to hit their heads or knock those two cute little teeth out. They are starting to maul/tackle/climb on each other. Emily is usually the instigator of it. She is always trying to steal whatever toy Erin has. Crazy girls!
Maggie is doing well. She is not enjoying her sisters new found mobility and is always asking me to "please move that baby." Other then that she likes our new house and her new toy room. She seems to have an exceptionally long attention span and never wants to leave whatever it is she is doing....even if it is to go do something else that is fun. That is coming in handy since we aren't doing all that much these days.

Erin loves her bumper! She tries to use it as a pillow, hugs it, and sometimes pushes it down to look for me at the door.


Maggie and her best friend Peter Rabbit...all dressed up in his pumpkin Halloween costume.


Emily gets a chance to play with Peter...a rare occurrence.


Erin modeling the girls' Christmas dress


Awww...


More pictures while we were visiting grandma...


They love each other!
What big blue eyes!

The Silly Sisters


All three girls in the van. Babies had to move to big girl car seats now!


Messy eaters!

This is what happens when daddy feeds them!
Emily wasn't feeling very well that night. I put her down in the hallway and she fell asleep (notice her arm over her face to block out the light...)
