8 months

I can hardly believe that our sons turned 8 months old yesterday!  I had planned to include some of their 8-month photos with this post but forgot to upload them to the computer.  Oops.  Maybe next post I'll remember.  I share with you some photos from the past month instead.

(If you're checking this post on or after 9/30/12, the photos have been removed from this post.  If you're a regular reader, email me, and I'll be happy to share them.)

Here is AJ.  He is sitting very well without assistance these days and crawling all over the place!  He started with a few hitching "steps" at the end of August and has progressed daily ever since.  It's hard to get a decent photo of him with my point-and-shoot camera because he is constantly in motion.  He has also become a very good little eater, eating more than his (heavier) brother at many feedings.

Here is MJ.  He is not yet actually crawling but is able to get around very well by rolling, pulling himself and scooting.  He is also able to get in and out of a seated position on his own, and he has two teeth on the bottom!  The first broke through a few weeks ago, and the second joined it yesterday.

It is so fun watching them learn and grow and progress, and I love their smiles and laughs.  We are really enjoying them!
