8 months

Everyone says kids grow up fast, but you don't realize how fast until the months fly by with your own kids... & here we are with twin 8 month olds! We are thoroughly enjoying watching Casen & Collins grow & develop - it seems like they learn new things almost every day.
Casen is sitting up well on his own now. He is extremely curious & is always watching & exploring. Luckily he can't crawl yet so we can contain the exploration (for now!) He drools as well as any baby, but doesn't have any teeth just yet. This week he started feeding himself with his fingers & babbling. I often find him happily babbling in his crib after waking from a nap or a good night's sleep - SO cute! Collins is also sitting up on her own, but still topples over quite a bit. She still likes to use her surprise face to express excitement. This week she got her 6th tooth #7 is on the way!

Great Grandpa Jay came from Arkansas to visit for a couple of weeks. It was so cute to watch Casen with him... for the first couple of days he was here Casen would see him across the room & just start smiling & giggling! I think he must have liked Grandpa's bald head :)

Bryan's parents (aka "Nana" & "Pop") came to visit this weekend. We had a great time!

Case & Lainey are both sitting up well on their own now & tried out their highchairs for the first time. Our happy babies!
