Playtime

The girls have been so cute lately - their personalities are really showing. Here are some random playtime pictures from the last few weeks...

Sophia usually ends up with the entire stack of toys when they are playing. Isabella doesn't seem to mind but it is pretty funny to watch Sophia take each toy Isabella picks up!
Isabella smiles and giggles constantly. She is most giggly when she is sleepy - she cracks up if you just look at her when she is tired. Her favorite thing to do right now is to bonk foreheads with me. She looks up and leans forward and starts giggling as soon as I lean forward - so cute!
These balls are there favorite toys - they will spend an hour just holding them and clacking them together to make noise. Sophia almost always ends up with one in each hand and spends the rest of the time trying to figure out how to hold all three! Isabella likes to grab one and set it down or try hitting it against other things to make noise. She also likes to give the one she is holding to her sister.
This is what Sophia looks like most of the time these days - one in each hand or....
...trying to hold all three!
We are starting to work on sippy cups these days. They get a sippy cup with water after each meal...most of it ends up on their bibs or the floor though!
When mimi watches them she fills up this drum with toys and lets them unload it - again and again and again... you get the picture :) They absolutely love it!
Sophia's eyes are so blue! She is always smiling and looking at you with her big blue eyes - such a beautiful girl...
Sophia learned to put her feet in her mouth just a week after Isabella did
It's so hard to believe they are almost 9 months old already - time is flying by! They are also starting to roll around on the floor and moving towards a toy if they want it. Sophia can go from sitting up to lying on her tummy pretty easily. They both love to stand up and rest their arms on the couch or the side of the crib. And they are pulling up from lying to sitting to standing by pulling on us. I think it's time to start baby-proofing the house!
