9 Months

May 6, 2011

(yes still playing catch-up...I did take these pictures and write this post on May 6th so it is accurate!)

NINE MONTHS??? Really!?! It's hard to believe that my sweet babies are that old!

Levi- This little guy LOVES Mama! That's just fine with me.....except when I want a break;) He says Mom/Mama all the time. I went to a dental appointment and poor Levi was so upset, he crawled up and down the hall and into the rooms crying out "Mom, mama, mom." Levi also says Dada. Most of the time it's dadadadada, getting squeakier as he goes. He is currently really like the ssssss sound. I remember when Ezra used to ssssss all the time too. I love it! Levi signs the word milk, usually while screaming at me because he wants food NOW! When I get ready to feed him, I mean I'm sitting down ready to nurse, he screams until he gets food. Speaking of getting mad, he has adopted Lucy's hand balled into fists shaking screaming thing and Lucy has pretty much given it up. He now has four teeth (two on bottom and two on the top) and he is currently working on at least one more. This whole teething thing has not been fun for Levi, or anyone else for that matter! Levi does not sit on his bottom at all, he kneels. He is crawling everywhere, pulling himself up to stand and face planting (I HATE this!). Levi is such a sweet boy!

Lucy-
Is still a princess! Although she will now crawl to you but she has a system....Crawl a little, sit, wait, act cute, if this doesn't work she will crawl a little more and repeat. Lucy is crawling all over the house casing after her brothers. She loves to talk.....AAHAHHAHHA...Funny gasp....AHAHAAHAAH. She sticks out her tongue while doing this. The ladies at church found this very entertaining last week. Lucy plays with her tongue quite a bit, as well as her hands. She has two teeth on the bottom (two teething babies and a two year old who has been acting very "two"....that's just mean!) Lucy loves the bath! She does the cutest little sit flip around back and forth thing, with a big smiles and giggles. Lucy signs milk and more. She's just too stinking cute! Ezra-

Is testing his boundaries! Regardless of his two year old moments he is still the biggest sweetheart and is smart and handsome to boot! Here is a conversation that I had with him yesterday.....

Me: Ezra, please be quite. Grandma and Daddy are sleeping.

Ezra: Why are they sleeping?

Me: Because they work so hard. After you go to bed the grown-ups still have to work.

Ezra: That's just crazy!

Here is what the kids really wanted to do instead of taking pictures....Legos!

All playing NICELY together!!!

This brings me much hope!
