Like me!  (and my family can stop snickering now… )

The babies turned 9 months old yesterday.  We have our next well-visit next week.

Alex does still have a pretty bad ear infection.  The doctor prescribed him the next level of antibiotic.  Good side: it only has to be given once a day.   Bad side: He hates it as much as he did the pink stuff (and it stinks).   Odd side: it may turn his poop maroon. 

Erin is starting to push up into a bear-crawl position.  She doesn’t move yet, but it’s funny to see her standing there with her little butt in the air.

Alex is getting pretty good at rolling and spinning to get where he wants to go.  And I think he can crawl sideways a bit.  Or that might be an accident.  Who knows…

Erin dances to any music that is playing.  If she’s sitting on the floor, it looks like rocking.  If you’re holding her, she bounces.  It’s too cute!

I finally saw Alex take a toy back from Erin when she took it away.  Go Buddy!

We are trying to get back into eating with our fingers again (it was all I could do to get them to nurse and eat off the spoon while they were sick).  Alex loves his puffs.  Erin apparently prefers crackers that she can hold and nibble off of. 

Erin has the cutest new smile she’s started doing.  I think it has to do with teething.  I haven’t gotten a good picture of it yet, but I’ll post one when I do.

During a recent nap, I found Alex on his tummy with both the stuffed animals that are currently in his crib on top of him, like they had wrestled him to the ground and pinned him there.  I would have loved to see how that one happened…

I’ve been trying to upload some pics to Shutterfly, but it’s not working well.  I think it’s my husband’s Linux system that’s causing me issues, even though it should work just fine.  We really do need to get some pictures printed soon…

And that’s where we stand for this morning.  Happy Wednesday!
