9 months old

Garrett and Walker are 9 months old! Nine months. That's 3/4 of a year. How is that possible? Weren't they just born? They have officially been in the outside world longer than they were in my belly. I must say, it has been the best nine months of our lives.

It is truly amazing the new things they are learning each day. They are both shaking their heads no, "dancing" to music, picking up finger foods and putting them in their mouths. Garrett is crawling on his belly and pulling up to his knees, while Walker is crawling everywhere (and he's quick!) and standing all the way up. "Ma ma", "bye bye", and "da da" are the words of choice right now. They are growing up right before our eyes, and it's so exciting!

Oh, and did I mention that it's very difficult to capture pictures right now? Walker rolls over immediately when you lay him down and Garrett reaches for the camera. So, not the best pics but still very cute!

Check this out!

...and he's off!
Who? Me? Nine months old? For real?
