Owen holding on to the new gate we had to put up to keep them contained.

eChase outside eating his snack. Notice it everywhere but in his mouth?

Not much is new around here. I had to come back and add a bit here. Obviously from what I wrote after that first sentence, there are new things! Owen is crawling like a big boy-everywhere and fast. He won't sit still for anything, including diaper changes. Have you ever tried to change twins and get some place on time? It's impossible. Jeff did a bunch of yard work today and I came out to see him sweating from trying to get the boys' diapers changed and their clothes back on. It was like I had been doing the yard work. You'll see many pictures of them without pants and it's mainly because it's too difficult to put pants back on! :) Chase can keep up with Owen-he can sure scoot if he's motivated. Motivation is the key word. Chase is so easy going that he doesn't really care if he sits in 1 spot the whole day. He'll find ways to occupy his time. Obviously I don't let him sit in 1 spot all day, but seriously he could! They both have been doing these big smiles that show off their 2 little teeth while wrinkling up their noses. It's hilarious. Every where we go lately we've been getting more attention than normal. With twins, you ALWAYS have attention. They are looking more and more alike when we go out-even I think so. I can always tell them apart, but they do look an awful lot alike. It's fun to watch the back of their heads in the stroller-always looking the same way, turning to look at something else at the exact same time-weird twin stuff. They get more and more fun by the day and we love them to pieces. We enjoy being outside, but that also requires me to be on major alert. Grass, leaves and yes, even mulch end up in their mouths. Not so good for the esophagus if it were to go down. Lots of things have been extracted from mouths, not so willingly. They are loving to eat by themselves! They have chunks of green beans, pears, black beans, crackers, carrots, broccoli, etc. They are really good at it. Owen is the best eater-he loves loves loves to eat and will sit there forever putting food in his mouth. He's pretty patient with the amount of time it takes him. Chase eats well, too-just gets a little frustrated sometimes and then bangs on his tray smashing the food and making it fly. It's a war zone-any where you walk you must be prepared to step in some sort of soggy veggie. Gross. We need a dog. A dog you don't have to take care of. Maybe the vacuum will have to do.
