11 Month Old!

We took these pictures this morning before church. They were being total hams!


Dad is singing...
I think I say this every month, but where did the time go? They are getting so big so fast. Just think, only one more brown chair/bear picture to go! :( It's amazing how much they are learning, especially in this last month. Their little personalities are shining through. Chloe has such a happy and spunky personality. She is always smiling. She is now hugging those she loves, including her baby doll. It's pretty funny when she hugs Cooper because while she is squeezing him and looking adorable, he's screaming trying to get away. She finds it quite funny. Cooper is more serious and curious but has his funny moments as well. He is doing this little dance thing with his head that cracks us all up and himself. He'll giggle to himself after he's done. Unfortunately, I have not been able to get it on camera yet. I will post it as soon as I do. It will make your day. Chloe is doing the hand gestures to "Itsy Bitsy Spider" by herself. PRECIOUS! She seems to prefer walking after this weekend. She's getting around pretty smoothly and quickly. Cooper took up to 4 steps yesterday and today. They both absolutely love the corner of the room behind the recliner. I'm pretty sure it's a fort to them. They will get back there together and laugh, squeal, bang things, etc. We aren't sure what is so fascinating about that corner but it keeps them entertained for sure. Cooper is in the lead with teeth, he is 5 so far with one coming in. Chloe is still hanging in with 2! I don't even see anything coming in. Their eating schedule really hasn't changed. I'm hoping to go down one bottle soon. Right now, they take 4 bottles a day. Chloe has learned to shake her head no when she doesn't want anymore to eat. When she is done, she is done! Feisty thing! They are sleeping about 10 1/2 to 11 hours a night and only one long nap during the day.

Today, I made their birthday invitations and will be mailing them sometime this week. They turned out super cute! I love it when things I am creating in my head come out right! Again...where did the time go?

Good news to share regarding Maddie...her team won 1st place in this weekend's volleyball tournament! Go Maddie! She played awesome!

I have a prayer request, please visit my Aunt Donna's blog that is in my blog list (Momma C). Her blog will take you to Bear's cancer journey. Bear is my aunt's husband's cousin. He is around my age with a beautiful wife and two children. Please pray for him and his family while they travel down this challenging road.

Have a great week! I can't imagine what new things the babies will do this month.
