The babies are 9 months old! Where has the time gone? They are so much fun right now. They are both very busy with crawling, pulling up on things, talking, smiling, and laughing! It's so fun to see their personalities and see how different they are from each other!
Ari is our talker! She does a lot of dadada and yayaya all day long! She is definitely more laid back than Chase and will sit and play with a few toys. She is crawling on her belly and tries so hard to pull up to standing. She is able to get up onto her knees, but then gets stuck. Ari also has 4 more teeth! She got all 4 teeth on the top a few weeks ago! She took it like a champ though.
Chase is still our mover. He crawls on his hands and knees everywhere! The kid does not sit still! He pulls up on everything and gets into everything! He is our little bully too. Whatever toy Ari has, Chase will crawl over and steal it from her! Its a good thing that Ari is so laid back and lets him get away with it! Chase is also getting 2 more teeth on top. They are his two on the sides so he looks like he is getting fangs! I hope the two middle ones come in soon!
On Friday they had their 9 month appointment with the doctor. She was very impressed with their grow and development. They sure aren't acting like preemies anymore!

These were the best pictures I could take of the two of them together. Neither wanted to lay on their backs long enough to take a picture.
