Nine months old!!!

Lots of new stuff to report! The Girls are NINE months old today! It seems just like yesterday that they had their six-month checkup. Here's the latest on each:

Delaney: Weighs 15 pounds 7 ounces and is 27.75 inches long. She is still the quiet, content, much-abused-by-her-sisters baby! She still loves to kick and likes to be in confined spaces (like UNDER her bouncy chair!). She has learned to love Cheerios and Puffs, and has one tooth on the bottom. Delaney's least favorite thing in the world is keeping socks on her feet!

Mary Beth: Weighs 17 pounds and is 28.5 inches long! She is pulling up and standing almost constantly. She's still just "army crawling," but definitely gets to where she wants to be in a hurry. She's very aggressive: her favorite toy is Delaney's hair! Mary Beth just had her first tooth pop through on the bottom this week!

Samantha: Weighs 15 pounds 5 ounces and is 26.75 inches long. She, too, is pulling up and loves to stand. She loves to explore: we've started calling her Dora! She loves any food that isn't in a bottle or on a spoon. She'll do it herself, thank you very much! (Don't know where she could possibly have gotten that...;-) ! ) Samantha, overachiever that she is, has TWO teeth on the bottom! I guess she's been working on that instead of hair!

They are getting so big so fast! Our days just fly by. Christmas will be lots of fun! I can't wait!!!
