Time to start bloggin about those babes!

I've really been putting this off, but it's time to start. The twins are changing SO fast. 8.5 months old and more amazing than ever. Rolling all over and it seems like crawling is just days away. We put up the 2nd crib on April 25th. They were really getting cramped. And now there is no way they could share. Amelia sleeps sideways, and Charlie has been flopping onto his tummy.
Amelia is making the cutest sounds now...dadadada in a cute breathy little whisper. Daddy loves it. I'm working on the mamamama sounds. Charlie is vocal to0 - saying Ohhhhh! and also adorable baby babble.
They are getting to be really funny with each other. The other day the three of us were sitting on the floor and Charlie grabbed Amelia from behind and hooked her cheek with his hand and pulled her over. We all went into hysterics. Amelia and I giggled for 10 minutes. We'd stop for a second, look at each other and start again. After about 5 or so Charlie started looking at us like we were crazy.
Curt told a funny story about them the other morning. They have Daddy's old cell phone...which they love. Charlie had it and Amelia was trying to grab it from him. She always wants to take what he has, but he has finally wised up and will try to hold it out of her reach. So she didn't like that much and pushed him over and tried to bite his foot.
There is also a lot of grabbing ears and hair. Sometimes this is funny, sometimes not so much.
They are really getting into food now. They love to feed themselves puffs. We are working on some chunkier things, but this is a slower process. They had pickles the other day. Didn't really eat them, but really enjoyed sucking all the juice out. They really love mangos, bananas and avocado in the little mesh bags. Summer will be lots of fun with all kinds of new fruits to discover.
