Bath Time!!!

Scott is crazy and likes to bathe all of the kids together (NOT I), but it did produce some pretty cute pics recently!!!


(So Crue kind of dunked himself/got dunked in this pic, but I feel it 
important to mention that no children were harmed in this photo session)

11 Months!

Case and Crue turned 11 months on September 18, 2012!  It just so happened it was a pretty nice day outside, so we could do the pictures outside!  Of course...it was as eventful as it has been since they became mobile, but it is always a fun challenge to get the monthly pics done.  Man, it would be so much easier to do this with one!  haha
I have no new stats, but will at the 12 month post.  They are definitely getting taller, because clothes are getting too small once again.  They are such good babies, even though they continue to get more and more teeth. Case got the first tooth on the bottom R on 9/9/12 and Crue bottom R on 9/10/12.  From there, they took off in different directions at completely different times.  Case had one tooth on bottom for an entire month before his top R tooth came in on 10/10/12.  We called him Snaggle Tooth.  It was  a little funny looking.  Crue however was a little more true to "teeth" logic and got his bottom L next 11 days later and then the top two within 9 days of each other.  He just got his 3rd tooth on top two days ago!  Crue is a little more crabby and sad then Case with each tooth...sometimes I can't even tell Case has one coming in.  Maybe cause he's moody all of the time???  Ha!
They are both walking along furniture, but not enough balance to let to and walk yet.  Case doesn't even try...his crawl is TOO FAST.  Crue, on the other hand, thinks he can walk and lets go of everything and then of course, he crashes.  Tough cookie!  They are both crawling 99% of the time, as opposed to scooting.  Case will scoot when he really wants to book it and even crawling isn't fast enough.  He looks like a little salamander when he "slithers".  I have a feeling he will RUN and not stop once he gets on his feet.
I have never had my kids crawl as long as these two have (Haddyn walked at 10 months and Stets at 10 1/2), so I've found that they crawl out of their pants ALL OF THE TIME!  It's the worst!  I have finally found a solution...mitten clips.  Clips on each side of a piece of elastic...connect to one belt loop, under the middle belt loop, connect to the other and vowlah!  OR connect to each side of waist band on sweats and it pulls the back together enough to keep pants on.  Love it!  
Well, enough chatting...I've used all of my allotted blog time....here are the pics!!

 Another fun photo sequence...pretty much the norm when trying to photograph both:






The cutest one of them together, but they are holding the wrong bears...Case has the brown one and Crue has the blue...
Back to the right bears...
Love these boys!!
