Catching Up

Wow! We have really fallen behind on our blog posting! Let us try to update you on the last two months. Tanner & Dylan are 8 months old now and they pretty much fill up every minute of our days. The nights are a little bit better now. Dylan sleeps through the night about half the time, but Tanner still gets up once or twice. Poor little guy, his tiny tummy just can't seem to hold him over for eleven hours!

Speaking of tummys... The boys are both eating really well. Danica makes most of their food and they like quite a few things. Tanner went through a funny phase when he would only eat food that was orange. That was a challenge because there are just not that many orange foods. They are eating with their fingers pretty well and today we tried meat for the first time. AND, the most exciting thing, they are starting to hold their own bottles!!! Yeah!!

The weather here in Texas has been sooo nice! We take walks or hang out outside as much as we can. Well, until last week when the pollen started blowing around and it seems Tanner might have some allergies...



Here are our happy, drooly boys. Dylan has had a top front tooth come in and Tanner has just one on the bottom which is so cute.



Dylan is such a happy baby! He smiles and laughs so easily. He is so ticklish and laughs at his mom all the time.



Tanner is so sweet. He has turned into quite the cuddler. Two months ago Dylan was the momma's boy, but now it's more Tanner.



We now have a crawler on our hands! Dylan can move around quite well now and has started pulling up on things. Lord help us when Tanner gets it figured out too!



This was the first of certainly many mischievious moments. I had left them alone for a few minutes and when I returned they had taken all of the diapers out of the bag, spread them all over, and were chewing on the bag and diapers. It was actually just really cute!



Tanner thought he should color his face to match his colorful shirt!



Weekends are our favorite, when Dad can be home with us.



We didn't know babies could wear black, but Dylan and Tanner seem to be able to rock anything!





Here is a leftover picture from the beautiful snow we got. We don't really get 'snowed in' in Dallas, but it was so nice to have a few days of really beautiful, peaceful winter weather. We got to take a couple of treks through the snow with our little ones.
We have quite a bit going on the next few weeks, so we should have lots of pictures to share! We hope you are enjoying the beginning of spring wherever you may be!
