8 months old

Sorry these are a few days late...we took them at the appropriate times, but I was just lazy and didn't get them off the camera.

Its blowing our minds that 1) our babies are already 8 months old and 2) how much they've grown and grown up already.

Smith is our happy boy. His favorite pastimes include touching EVERYTHING he can possibly get his hands on and putting it in his mouth. He also enjoys sitting on the floor and playing the big basket of toys that mom has for him (Yes, our little boy can sit unassisted. For long, long long periods of time). He's also trying his hardest to get up on all fours, which makes me think crawling isn't too far in the future for this little guy. Cookie has nicknamed him "Flash Drive," because he's SO fast in his walker, and he's already showing an enjoyment of technology.

Addison is our cautious child. She doesn't like loud noises (as we're fond of saying in our house..."Don't nobody need anymore ice", because the ice dispenser is known to set her off). She's mastered putting her pacifier back in, which is HUGE. She can also sit unsupported, but is prone to the occasional topple, so there is typically a fort of pillows and blankets surrounding her. She doesn't really show much interest in being on her stomach at all, except when she's in her crib, so we're not sure if she's going to crawl or not.

That Smith--he's just determined, no? And he's always so dang happy about it! You can see him sitting up in the chair all "I'm Sitting! Woo!"

I love this. They are the best twins in the whole world. I also love bare feet.
