Having Fun on a Saturday Afternoon

I just wanted to capture my cuties at play. This is what our typical day consists of: pulling up on the couch and cruising up and down it, banging on the door to make the dog bark, playing with our favorite toy, banging on the tv until we get in trouble, pulling up on the couch, making faces, etc.












Put the camera down mom!

8 Months old on Monday!





We'll be 8 months old on Monday...hard to believe! We are working on many things and every day presents something new to explore. For example, we're starting to try some new foods that require a little bit of gumming like mango and apple. Jake thought the sound the apple made was HILLARIOUS! (see below...the camera ran out of memory or we would have gone longer) Every time he took a bite he laughed. The boys are SO active. They are pulling up to a stand almost all day long. They love their activity table that Aunt Lissa got us because it's easy to pull up to and it has lots to do. Of course we already know all the songs it plays by heart!
We're already growing out of some of our 6-9 month clothes. The hoodie outfits above fit nicely and are for 9 month olds. Neal and I ordered our toddler car seats so we'll be graduating from our infant seats soon. They love to follow the dog and have therefore discovered how to get to the kitchen...which presents a whole new world of wonders. They have just figured out how to open drawers...fun times await on that front.
Let's see what else. Oh we're getting better at sippy cups. Jake is almost better at drinking out of it without the top than with it. We had our first flu shots last saturday and while we were there we decided to get a weight check. Jake was over 20lbs and Jonah was over 18lbs. Sheesh! What happened to my little babies!?

Pumpkin Patch SO Much Fun!

So today is my birthday and I decided that we NEED to go out. One week ago today we all got the sniffles and this past week has been so hard. We were all three sick and boy did we feel like the poo. And since we all felt better, it was time to venture out to the PUMPKIN PATCH!!! And boy did we have some fun. We were even some people's attraction within an attraction. We had a couple of people ask if they could take pictures of the boys. It was cute...but then again so were they! It was a good start to the day. :)

7 Months Old...and busier than ever!

Well our world is a little nutty lately. Both boys are crazy all over the place crawling and climbing up on everything they can reach. Every day is a new discovery. For example, today Jonah discovered the unique noise you can make running your tongue along the roof of your mouth...while I was trying to put him down for the night. And, Jonah has managed to pull himself up to a stand and then he'll occasionally let go...for a few seconds. He's never too far from something firm to make sure that if he looses his balance, it's not a far fall. Jake on the other hand has found the dog to be hillarious today for no apparent reason. I missed it but his aunt said, "he lost it!" What will they be up to next!?!?! Stay tuned!
