Guess who is on the move?

Both boys are masters at rolling all over the place and have been for quite some time. Lately though, Drew has begun scooting himself backwards and Jake decided to slowly use all four appendages to move this morning.
Here he is at the "READY - SET" mode:


And here he is on the "GO" mode -- going after the camera!

I'm sure I will be posting a video of Drew in the very near future copying his brother! Now Mommy and Daddy need to fully baby-proof everything... speaking of which Jake is currently going towards the TV cords... gotta run! :)

Bubbles!

We take our bath together every night and Mommy just realized that she has been bathing us with bubble bath rather than bath wash. OOPS. Anyway, when Mommy finally realized it was BUBBLES, we filled up the tub and had a good time!

First Beach Trip!

We went to the grandparents Bay Creek, VA house and actually experienced the beach for the first time. Jake really liked to sit in the water while Drew was just not too sure at first. In the end, both boys really seemed to enjoy both the water and the sitting on the towel in the sand. They were, however, not interested in keeping their hats on for any amount of time or napping at all while out in the sun.

Somebody DID and somebody DID NOT have a good afternoon nap!

So in the last 2 days one twin has had a great afternoon nap and is so happy during dinner that he just can't get enough and smiles throughout the entire meal... the other guy has a slighly different demeanor... See if you can tell by these photos who had a good nap and who didn't!
And yes, these are 2 different pictures from 2 different days!




And here are close-ups of the different dinner diners:

9 month check up

We had our 9 month check up today and we are growing!
Here are our stats:
Jake weighs 21 pounds 6 ounces and is 29 inches tall, while Drew is 22 pounds 11 ounces and is 29 3/4 inches tall. They are in the 59-75% for weight (big boys, yes) and in the 85-90% for their height (VERY big boys, yes!).

Today their nap schedule was a bit off the norm so Mommy put them in their swings to watch a little TV and relax. When Mommy walked out of the room, she realized that the swings may be close to their retirement for Drew... and we're sure that Jake will follow the same path very soon. See the video of what she walked in on here. Luckily, he is buckled in!
