Apologies for such a long hiatus!  Life w/ my twin girls has been busy busy busy. I can't believe they're already 8.5 months old! Here's an update on what's going on at 8 months:

::m a d d i e::

• is able to sit unassisted. once in awhile, she'll topple over.
• is more content with being still
• loves to flap her arms and legs when she's on her belly
• has just started to get on all fours. crawling is near! (33 weeks)
• is able to shimmy backwards on her tummy
• is impossible to feed sometimes.  she will only open her mouth halfway.
• has the most contagious smile
• has the juiciest, chubby thighs that i love to squeeze
• makes a winking face while scrunching up her nose (33 weeks)

::s o p h i e::

• is able to sit unassisted for a decent amount of time, but prefers to...
• army crawl (drags her body) every which way to explore
