8 MONTHS!!

We have a couple busy 8 month old boys, certainly too busy to sit for a picture:) It is a lot of fun watching them learn so many new things so fast these days. So here is a little bit of what is happening right now:

• both are crawling A LOT... Carter usually crawls on his knees, Dylan is so quick doing the army crawl that he prefers to move get around that way
• I wouldn't be surprised if these two were walking in the next couple months. They pull themselves up onto everything and Dylan is starting to get brave enough to let go.
• We recently discovered that both of them have really faint birth marks on the back of their right legs under their knees
• Carter has one- maybe two teeth, he doesn't really like to let us see, Dylan has two. They both got their bottom right tooth first
• They are excellent at saying "Da Da", the other night Carter was just smiling up at me and I would say "ma ma" and he would smile back and say "da da"
• They love to play with anything that they can bang together, kitchen utensils are quite popular
• They think Stella is really funny, they try and pet her sometimes, she isn't really too impressed
• We bumped up to size 4 diapers, this is the same size as their 2 year old cousin Cade:)
• We have been letting them try lots of new foods...I see more and more "Bucklin" in Carter all the time. I let him sample some Pepsi last week and then that is all he wanted. Now he reaches for every blue can in sight.
• They are now objecting when you take something away from them or don't let them do what they want
• They will clap their little hands and wave, I'm working on high fives
