Los Cabos

We got back early Monday morning from a great trip to Los Cabos, Mexico with Jeff's family. Thanks for taking us BeBe & Papa! I was a little wary about the flights with the girls. They flew to Disney when they were four months old, but that's just 1 1/2 hours & they are more manageable at four months, but they did fine. Madison did great & I don't think she hardly whined or cried the whole trip except for naptime & bedtime. Macey was a little more of a challenge, but she was very good too considering all the changes. We had a great set up at the place we stayed for having four young kids. Our own little pool which was great. The weather was hot but sunny every day, so we were able to spend most of our days in the pool except for naptime. Macey & Madison loved watching & playing with their cousins Libby & Frances the whole time--they kept them quite entertained. The traveling going to Cabo was smooth sailing, the trip home was not so much, but we made it home after several delays, several blow-out diapers at the worst time possible (why is that always the case), and got in around 1:00 am and to bed at 2:00am. The girls have been sleeping in after an early morning bottle, so that's been extra nice. All in all we had a great time!

They had 3 exersaucers there for us which was great

Attempts at a matching cousin shot. Macey was not happy this night so we didn't get a really good one.

Madison

9 Months!

Madison & Macey are 9 months old! It has flown by and they are getting more and more fun each day.

Madison is army crawling like crazy. She loves following Macey around and they think it's funny when they chase each other. She likes crawling on top of Macey, taking her toys away from her. She gives high-fives and loves giving kisses, especially to Mommy, Daddy, Macey, herself in a mirror, and baby cousin Brady. She pulls up in her crib. She is still very attached to Mommy & Daddy. She is eating mostly table food and puts anything she picks up into her mouth.
Macey is also army crawling like crazy and is very fast. She pulls up on whatever she can and loves to walk holding your fingers. She loves to wrestle with sister, and talks nonstop. She loves laughing and will also give kisses. She also eats table food but prefers her baby food still at times. She can drink pretty well out of a sippy cup. She has become very attached to Mommy & Daddy.

Are you over there, sister?

Really mad about it

I was going through their clothes trying to pack up what didn't fit anymore, I don't think these toboggins will work this winter.

"Sister, there's something on your head."

Mom, I'm not sure about this

Not sure what's so fun about playing under the jumparoo
