9 Months

The babies hit their 39 week milestone. They have now been on the outside as long as they were on the inside... so to speak. For some reason, I feel like that's an occasion to mark. So here are a few pictures.

Here's Zach getting excited for the monkey bread in the oven. It smelled really good.

He got baby food instead. Sorry buddy.

We all had a rather messy dinner.

Ava... I don't know how she does it--I promise I don't have clothes strewn about the house all the time-- but somehow she always finds a sock to crawl around with. Any sock. Usually a kid's sock, but any one will do. I've seen her steal them when I'm folding laundry, but she must have a secret stash somewhere. It's the funniest thing. She'll be playing in the other room, and then come crawling around the corner with a new sock in her hand. She'll hang on to it all day too. Don't worry, they are always clean socks. I don't know what she loves about them. It's a mystery.
Zach loves his bottle. If Ava has a bottle and he doesn't, he'll crawl right over to her and snatch it out of her mouth. Sometimes he does this even when he has his own. They both steal pacifiers from each other all the time too. It's pretty funny.
