11 months!!!

When I first started taking these monthly pictures I remember looking at all the stickers and thinking it will be forever until we get to the double digits.....and here we are the 2nd to last sticker before my girls are 1 year olds. Those first few months were so hard and they felt like they moved like molasses but now life is so different....a month flies by in an instance. 

We are having so much fun watching these two little ladies learn and grow. They are everywhere and into everything. Standing up on anything and cruising around furniture to get where they want. I feel like they grow a tooth every other day and overnight they feel a pound heavier. 

Sloan: 20 lbs

Riley 18.12 lbs

The girls still love their school and their teachers but along with fun times comes nasty colds and our first ear infection for Riley. We made it almost 1 year without having to give either girl antibiotics but I know there will be lots in their future. 

My most favorite thing about the girls growing and changing is that they interact with each other more and its the most precious thing to watch. They scream and laugh at each other and they talk/babble to Matt and I a lot more which is fun.

These pictures are not easy to take but so fun to look at....they love their daddy and he is my photo assistant that does all the crazy antics to make them smile. 

Life has been so busy lately I haven't had time to sit down and blog. Hopefully this week I can change that but in the meantime I'll leave you with this.

Nothing cuter than babies in smocked clothes!


Sloan is sooooo happy lately


Look at those teeth!

Their names go in the back but daddy thought this way looked cooler.

10 Months!!!

Double digits....say it isn't so. It's okay you can't be sad for too long with these girlies around. Getting bigger comes with perks like more and more personality everyday. Sloan is so sweet and somewhat timid at first but once she gets used to the environment watch out! Riley is my sassy sweetie who can be ornery one second and melt you the next by leaning in for a kiss just out of the blue.

Both girls are crawling like mad and pulling up on anything and everything. Sloan has perfected the pull up and stand and today she even let go a few times and was free standing for a few seconds....she doesn't realize what she is doing but she is just getting braver and braver everyday. Riley is a speed crawler and you have to constantly watch her because she is more into regular household things than toys. Both these girls have an obsession with the dog water bowl and with mom's makeup of course...they can destroy a room in less than 5 mins.

I don't have any stats because we haven't been to the doctor lately but we go back Friday for a flu booster so I am sure we will get weighed then. I know they are growing because our clothes are getting tight and so are our diapers....I think we will be moving up to size 4's here before too long. I don't see how the girls couldn't be growing since they eat all the time. They eat 3 meals a day and get 4 bottles a day and I give them snack in between too, I feel like I am feeding them all the time. They also love to eat big people food, they always want a bite of what Matt and I are eating.

Birthday party planning has begun and I can't wait to watch them keep growing, I wonder if they will  be walking by the time they are one or if they will maybe do me a favor and hold their own bottle?

I won't lie these pictures weren't easy and there isn't one great one so I am just going to post them all!




Sloan and her Bebe last weekend, Sloan didn't mind wearing these sunglasses.

 My sister buys the girls the cutest outfits and accessories...these are some of her best work.

 Here is our attempt at the 10 month sticker pictures. You can see me and my assistant (Matt) had very unruly subjects.

Here are some videos from the weekend....these girls are funny to just sit back and watch.

We went to our friend Wade's 2nd birthday party and it was at a bounce house. I would say we are a tad small still but we enjoyed the company.
