Where did the last 9 months go?

Today is Holland and Cole's 9 month birthday - if there is such a thing. Where has the time gone? We went to the doctor on Friday for their 9 month appointment and they are doing great. Here are their measurements:

Holland:
Weight - 18 lbs 9 oz -- 25-50%
Length - 28 in -- 50-75%
Head Circumference - 44.5 cms -- 50%

Cole
Weight - 19 lbs 2 oz -- 25% (Note: he absolutely filled his diaper prior to weighing in)
Length - 27.5 in -- 25%
Head Circumference - 46.5 cms -- 75-90%

The doctor was happy with their development. I guess we haven't messed them up too bad - yet.

Here are some cute pictures Mindy took yesterday after church. For being tired babies, they still knew that when the camera is out, they have to ham it up. Cue smile. They get that from their daddy.



And one last picture of Holland and Cole saying "hi" to Lucy. This picture was followed with a swift Cole swat to Lucy's face.

After two years of wondering if our "Marley" was ever going to calm down, she finally has. Words cannot describe how good Lucy has been with the babies. She lets them hit her face, pull her hair, and grab her paws - all the while she just lays there like "yellow dog" should. If you were to ask the kids who is the funniest in the house, they would probably say Lucy. I don't know what it is about Lucy, but whenever she is around them, they are laughing at her.
