Play Time!

 Addison and Sarah played in their "fort" in their dress up clothes, but they wouldn't stop to smile for the camera!

 While Emery and Emily played with their fun toys in the living room.

 I'm not sure what is going on here...

and now Emery is going after Emily!

Swimming Lessons!

 Sarah is taking swimming lessons for the first time.  She loves the water, and so far, so good with the lessons!

 The girls on a stroll. 

 Cute face, obviously talking while I was trying to take a picture...

 and also not staying still anymore...Emily is everywhere these days, and now she's trying to pull up on things.  She especially likes shoes, so that's what she's trying to get here. 

Emily's hair was getting a little too long, and I was tired of seeing it in her face so much.  Even though I did not want to officially give her "bangs", I caved and did it anyway.  Rusty and I actually tried to cut them ourselves last week, but we didn't do such a great job (you can see for yourself in the picture above with Sarah and Emily in the stroller), so I took her in yesterday to have them fix the bangs. Here's the new 'do...I'm not a big fan (too short), but I guess it'll grow out.

Nine Months Old!

 Emily crawls!  She will go a few steps on her knees, but then she just is army crawling.  One thing is for sure:  she doesn't stay still anymore.  That is making it interesting with big sister...

We had to get a picture of Emily with this toy on her head because, well you can see for yourself below, we did that with Sarah too.  Sarah was a couple months younger here though.

 Sweet sisters!

 On the move!  She's making it quite difficult to get a picture of her these days where she's actually looking straight at me and smiling and not moving!  Look how long her hair is getting though!

I think I can!
