Love Comes Easy: 9 months!

Time flies when you're having fun, and these months have gone by FAST!

The boys are now 9 months (ok, I'm a day early) and growing like weeds.

Bennett is now 21 pounds 15 ounces and 29 inches long

Maxton is now 20 pounds 8 ounces and 29 inches long

I love this picture of my lovies. These boys are so extremely unique which makes having twins that much more fun. As different as their looks are, so are their personalities. I love that Max's floppy ear caught on Bennett's chest and is sticking out. So stinking cute!

Both boys have hit every milestone for their age, and are both very eager to walk. They have even been daring enough to let go of the couch to hold a toy (neither have taken a step yet.) If I put money on it, my guess would be Maxton walks first, but I bet they'll both be very close! Maxton is just a stiffer baby which I think will have it's advantages. Maxton has his two bottom teeth, and the two top teeth are sooo close to poking through. Bennett is still at zero. They love baby food, especially the ones they get to feed themselves. They are a mess with a sippy cup, but think it's probably the coolest thing they've ever seen, next to their big brother. They both have great dispositions, always in a good mood until they're ready to sleep.

We walked to the doctor's office yesterday for their check up as it was such a beautiful January day. Hendrix stayed with Grandma because having two children sit still in a waiting room is hard enough. We hardly ever get out of the house all together, and the babies really don't go out in public often as it is so difficult at this age with three of them. Not to mention they're so little and it's flu season, I try to avoid the as much sickness as I can. You can imagine what it would be like to have three sick kids. And trust me, as much sharing as we do in this house, they'd all get sick. The boys loved exploring, every chance we get we take them outside, and they are so eager! Both boys were all smiles for the doctor and any other person sending them a friendly glance. What can I say? My boys are little lovers.

Having twins has made it very clear that children are born with personalities. These two boys, born at the same times, raised in the same house, have two completely different personalities.

Big brother had to jump in the photo. I love being the mommy to these sweet boys!

Bennett's duck face. It's only cute when he does it. Ever.

Brushing our teef. (The one that doesn't have any.)

Maxton is my wild thing! He does not like to cuddle, ever. Once in a blue moon he will rest his head on your chest, or let you cuddle him and kiss him. But he loves to play! He is super ornery, and has a pretty bad temper. If Ben takes a toy Max wanted, he will scream and wave his arms till he gets it. He is a spitfire, so funny, full of personality, and so fun. He is also very independent and rather be crawling around the floor looking for dirt to put in his mouth than be on your lap. I'll always catch him zooming around the room with a big goofy grin on his face.

My wild thing!

Bennett is always in my lap. He is such a momma's boy, and I'm a sucker for his soft snuggles. He is the biggest momma's boy of all my babies, and often fusses until he is passed back to his mother. He has the sweetest personality and is such an incredibly chill baby, rarely ever cries. He is super easy to get a smile out of, and is always eager to play with either of his brothers.
