9 months old!

For some reason this milestone seems so BIG to me! Maybe it has something to do with the fact that 9 months is the amount of a time a pregnancy generally lasts, or maybe because it is only 3 months away from their FIRST birthday!

The girls are developing so quickly.. as I am typing this I am watching them hold their own bottles! We have a pediatrician appointment on Wednesday,so I will make sure to update their stats then!

Facts!
Jacey
has waved (hi&bye) 3 times!
has clapped her hands 3 times!
can use the pincer grasp to pick up small objects
is feeding herself puffs and yogurt melts!
loves JUMPING in her jumper!
mimics "eh" and "ah" noises for about 10 rounds!
babbles mamama! ( I don't think she knows it is me yet)
loves doing ESKIMO kisses with her daddy

Julianna
tries to clap her hands, but doesn't always get it! she does clap toys together really well!
makes alot of noises (usually screeches)
is a social butterfly she engages and smiles at everyone she notices!
loves when her daddy picks her up really high!
splashing in the bath
pushes up on her feet to stand
can use the pincer grasp to pick up small objects
is feeding herself puffs and yogurt melts
laughs out loud ALOT!

They have both tried peas for their first finger food, and neither of them were big fans, but they love pea baby puree, so I think they just need to get used to the texture. They also both enjoy frozen blueberries in a mesh feeder,they suck those things dry, oh yeah and bang them like crazy on their high chair trays! They are also taking the occasional sip of water from their sippy cups too!

Here are some shots from our 9 month photo shoot!
They are wearing the first article of clothing I ever bought them. They are dresses with little goldfish on them, David and I each chose something the day we found out they were girls! I still cannot believe they are almost not babies anymore..it seems like just yesterday we drove to Downers Grove to check out Buy Buy Baby for the first time! Ahhh these girls amaze me!
