Back from Hiatus

So I have been seriously neglecting m blog lately, and I am totally regretting it.  I miss he das of blogging about what was going on with my life!!  So here I am taking a stand and re claiming my blog! 

First thing is first, we  BOUGHT A HOUSE  and we moved in last thurday!  It is crazy how amazing it is to be home owners!  Our house had 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, and we already have a roomate!  I know I really didnt one one, but this is a woman and her fiancee works with Nick.  they are actually sane adults, so all good.  Rylie and Laramie love havin g thwe space to do whatever they want, and they have so much room now!  Were so happy, all of us. 

Next order of business, Rylie walks, everywhere, and Laramie has taken two steps!  I am so proud of my little bugs!!  Theyre going to be one soon, ONE!  I wish on their first birthday we could start over from day 1, but I am excited to see who they will be as well.  I dont have baby fever thats for sure!  I am completely good with my two munchkins!!  Thats about it for the night, I am exhausted and Friday night or not, Im taking a nice warm bubble bath, and cuddling  up to a book and bed :)  OH!  and my hubby too, once he gets home ♥

♥ 10 MONTHS ♥

We have had the most amazing 10 months with these little "bugs" as I call them.  Theyre AMAZING little people, and they are so much fun to be with!  They crawl all the time, they pull up on anything and everything, and they both wil speed crawl to the middle of the room and just stand up on their own!  On August 28th, Rylie took one step!!  She stood up just a wee bit too far from her stand and play toy, and had to take a step to get to it!!  She wasnt holding onto anything!!  Laramie isnt terriably interested in walking alone, but she will walk along or "cruise" really fast!!  I am just amazed how far we have come!!

As far as stats go, on August 25th they had their 9 month appointment (talk about late!) and theyre 6 month shots(thats another post entirely including a trip to the ER by way of ambulance)

Rylie : 19lbs 2oz  and 28 1/4 inches long/tall

Laramie: 18lbs 9oz and 28 1/2 inches long/tall

Yup, you read that right!  Little sister who was born a full inch and a quarter shorter than her big sister, is now a 1/4 of an inch taller!!  I had my suspicions, she has seemed taller for a while now, and the doctor confirmed it!  They are so big!!  They are now 100% in 12 month clothes (although I do stuff them into 9 month onsies that I stretch out haha!!)  They got their first pair of cowgirl boots on 8/28 BOTH IN SIZE TWO!!  I think size 2 will last them most of the winter, so I guess my splurge on pink baby cowgirl boots will be worth it!  They are their first pair of shoes or boots ever!!!

The girls literally eat everything and anything not on the "no, no" list.  They havent eaten baby food since they were 9 months old, they refuse to eat it!!  Now for breakfast they have wheat toast, fruit, eggs, yogurt, whole wheat pancakes (home made!) kix, and real oatmeal...Lunch and dinner are usually chicken, veggies, fruit, and whatever else (they have been on a whole grain pasta lately)

They have officially graduated from bottles completely, and now only use sippy cups!! Starting today we are going to begin mixing their formula with whole milk.  I just cant believe how big these babies are getting!!  So happy 10 months girls!!!
