Pulling Up

Friday night Shane walked into the living room to find Abigail standing by the couch! At first he thought that I (Christine) had put her in that position. But, NO! She spent the rest of the evening and weekend pulling up on everything. I am amazed. And yesterday, Elizabeth pulled herself up once. I can't believe what these petite girls are able to do!

10 Months!

Our babies are 10 months old today! Happy Birthday!

Here are a few quick updates on the kids.

Elizabeth started saying her "d's" and "g's" the day after I wrote the last post. Lately, she enjoys looking in the baskets of books and even climbed on top of the basket tonight. Oh how she loves to climb--watch out Mt.Everest.

Abigail has said dada a few times and has also started a true crawl in the last couple of days.

Josh continues to crawl all over. He also loves to squeal in excitement especially when he is banging 2 toys together.

10 months of growth, developments, and blessings--what a joy.

We love our kids.

2 inch worms and a crawler

We are so thankful to see our little ones moving around. The girls have been able to army crawl for a couple weeks, they almost look like 2 little inch worms moving around our house. They love to crawl out to the kitchen, under the coffee table, on top of each other, and to go after toys. Josh has been doing a "true" crawl for the last couple days. I am so grateful that they are learning new things!

We are starting to get teeth--watch out! Josh has a couple teeth and Abby is working on a second one too. So far, Elizabeth doesn't have any.

They have also been sitting fairly well for the last 3-4 weeks. I think they enjoy playing with toys in this upright position, except when Abby is doing her backbend. Ha Ha

The babies are also saying a few different sounds. They have added "d" and "g"....I'm sure I've heard dada a couple times, but maybe just by accident.

I'm so thankful and so proud of the progress that the babies have made in the last 9 months.

Thank you Lord for your protection, comfort, forgiveness, and blessings. We couldn't do this without You.

One last request, a friend of ours is on bedrest. Please pray for her, the baby, and her family. Thanks.
