10 Months

Who is going to get the ball first?

"Let me out"


He is so proud to get to hold both girls

There are several pictures of Olivia because I caught her laughing and smiling on camera.



We are so big that we have to sit on top of each other now to fit in the chair

I really do feel like I am doing these monthly posts all the time. I get one done and it is time for another one. I guess that means they are growing way too fast. I really can't believe that my babies are 10 months old, but yet it seems forever ago that we were in the hospital. With Christmas time being so hectic, I am really trying to make sure we take it all in. The girls will only have one 1st Christmas and I want it to be special without being rushed!

The girls are on the move, which makes my job harder than ever. This is the hardest stage since the girls were born because they are everywhere. We are always having to watch to make sure that both are not putting things in their mouth or doing something else they should not be, but at least we have Grayson. He does an awesome job of letting us know if they are putting something in their mouth or even playing with something they should not be.

Grayson is also having fun getting the girls to crawl and "chase" him. It is his favorite game to play every night. It will be nice to have a few weeks off from school so we can spend more time just playing.

Here is what the girls are doing at 10months

Olivia
She is crawling faster and faster and is starting to take an interest in pulling up on things, but still just plays with whatever is around her.
She is saying Bye Bye
Loves to clap her hands together
Her favorite game is to take her socks and shoes off when she gets in the car. She is so fast at it and thinks it is hilarious. We will be driving down the road and I know they are off when she is laughing!

Elizabeth
She has mastered crawling, pulling up and now will stand alone and clap her hands. She stands longer and longer each time. And has started "walking" behind her toy.
She is also saying Bye Bye
And loves to wave
Her favorite game is to take toys away from Olivia!

They both love their brother and look for him constantly if he is not close by. They do not like it when they are in their "cage" and he is on the outside.
They are still sleeping all night. They sleep about 11 or 12 hours and then take a 3 hour nap. (yes I know how blessed and lucky I am)

Let me clarify what Grayson calls their cage before I get in trouble. We took their play yard fence and opened it up where the girls can't get out of the living room on their own. This gives them a safe place to play without me having to constantly be watching them. They are not really in a cage.

I have to say I am enjoying this stage at the moment, but am ready for them to walk. I just don't like them crawling on the floors and having to limit where they can go, but it won't be long.

Enjoy the pictures!
