9 Months Old Today!

My babies turned 9 months old today! Man, time sure does fly by. They are all over the place now. Cooper crawls so fast and Chloe is close behind him. They climb all over the furniture and family members (including Reba and each other)! The living room has been cleared of all dangerous furniture and has been taken over by toys. I know all those that are close to me know that this was very hard for me to do. But, it's amazing how your priorities change once you become a Mom.

Chloe is clapping in this picture! This is her new thing. She dances and claps all the time.

We are trying to wear shoes now. They constantly tug at them.
New toys in Mom's Tupperware cabinet.

They had their 9 month doctor appoint today as well. They received on vaccine shot. Not a way to celebrate their special day! Kudos to Dad, he took them by himself to their appointment today. It is not easy going to the doctor by yourself with both babies. Especially, when shots are involved. The doctor was quite impressed that he came alone. He made sure to report that to me as soon as the visit was over. :)
