My Babies are 9 Months!

I know everyone out there is just dying to know the stats on these two cuties, right??? Well, maybe not dying, but interested? Anyway, we sure love our little kiddos. Tate is so BIG! Emmy is so PETITE! But, they are both super sweet, no matter their size. They like to crawl all over, including over each other and us, as you can tell in the pic above.

A lot of people stop and look at these guys and hesitate. Then they ask if they are twins. Seeing them sit side by side in this stroller, I can kind of see why they hesitate. Tate looks so big compared to Emmy! OK, here's the stats:

TATER BUG

Weight: 23 pounds, 2 ounces, 86th%

Height: 29 inches, 76th%

Head: 97th% (!!!)

Tate is all over the place! He steamrolls over everything, toys, sisters, whatever. He's been doing this funny growling laugh with his eyes closed lately. Such a nut!

He likes to stand next to toys or mommy and daddy. You can't really see it yet, but he does have 1 tooth that is starting to come through!

And he LOVES to pull all the food out of Izzie's little kitchen (and dump anything else out that can be dumped if it is in his path.) He also is getting pretty good at his little army crawl. What a cute buggahs.

EMMERS 

Weight: 17 pounds, 8 ounces, 27th%

Height: 26 3/4 inches, 24th%

Head: 69th% (which I think is wrong—it seems smaller than that!)

Emmy now pulls herself up to just about anything. She's getting pretty good at lowering herself back down too. She is so little and stinkin' cute!

Emmy also crawls all over the place. She used to get up and just drag her whole body with her arms, but now she is figuring out how to do the standard knee crawl and we love it. You can also see that she's got her two bottom teeth!

What a cute baby girl. Our little peanut for sure!

Disneyland: Part 2

OK, I'm finally getting around to posting the rest of the pics from our trip. Sorry it took so long! :)

Iz showing Cinderella the picture of her on her princess jacket. She showed each princess she visited with where they were on her jacket. It was SUPER cute!

Sleeping Beauty's gloved hands kind of freaked me out a little. Not sure why she had them on . . .

I thought Tiana was SO pretty! 

Pluto checkin' out Tate and Emmy.

Tate loving daddy. :)

Emmy's turn for some lovin'!

Izzie, completely exhausted, crashed like this in her stroller most days we were at the park. 

Getting ready to ride her first roller coaster over in ToonTown.

A bit scared going down the hill, but she did good. (After the ride I asked if she had fun. She said "Yes." I asked her if she wanted to go again. She said very emphatically, "NO!"

Enjoying another Tea Cup ride.

One of her all-time favorite characters—Mickey! She ran right up and gave him a hug.

Minnie with the twins. Emmy lost her bink so Minnie tried to give it back to her. It was fun to watch.

Disneyland 2012: PART 1

Finally! I'm just now getting to our Disneyland pictures back from February, and I think they are super cute. It was rainy and cold a lot of the time we were there, but it was still SUPER fun! Unfortunately, the weather limited some of our pictures—we didn't get one at the entrance of either park (which I think is a must), and we didn't get one on Main Street or in front of the Sleeping Beauty's castle (so sad!) either. But, I guess we'll just have to go again when it is nice and sunny! SO, without further ado, here is the first half of our trip in pictures! :)

Izzie on her first ride of the trip, King Triton's Carousel in California Adventure.

The kiddos all bundled up in the double stroller!

We LOVED the tea cups!

With daddy on the Winnie the Pooh ride.

Emmers wearing her cousin Rachel's princess hat. What a cutie!

Izzie loved all the characters we saw and would run right up and give them a hug. Pooh was one of her favorites.

The fam with Pooh—minus Emmy, who was sleeping in the stroller. 

Giving Tigger loves too! Hoo hooo hooo!

More 6-month Pics

We had some pics taken of the twins a few weeks ago and they turned out pretty cute! Here are some of the favorites:
