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.

The Kiddos





Finally Some Halloween Pics

Ethan really wanted to be a lion this year. So we decided to do a jungle theme. Zacky is a monkey if you can't tell.


Yes, I think this is the cutest elephant ever.

Ready to fill his pumpkin
We went around the neighborhood with some friends from Church.


Happy Halloween!

Ethan at work

Daddy often works at the computer with a book nearby. The other day Ethan grabbed his baby Elmo book and announced he had work to do. Later that day I got on the computer and found this typed out:



The / equals a ? because they are on the same key and i means l because the i key looks like a l.

Also, today we made a Mickey Jack-o'-lantern in honor of our Disney trip

Disney World

With Eric on vacation we finally made it down to Orlando for the first time in 10 months. Eric’s mother watched the babies and we took Ethan to Disney World. The weather was beautiful (mid 70s) and we had a really fun time. Ethan probably liked the racing cars the most. He also liked Soarin at Epcot, but will not admit it.

He doesn't seem to mind

She was laying like this for a good 5 minutes so she could reach her toy. Zach never complained. Which is surprising, because she weighed in at a whopping 20 pounds at their six month appt.
