Month 9: Getting bigger

The babies had their 9 month check up yesterday. Doctor said they were perfect!! They are now considered true 9 month olds!!! It usually takes preemies 2 years to finally catch up to their age, so considering it's only been 9 months, we were extremely happy! They have been on Neosure(formula for preemies) since they were born and we finally get to come off that and go to regular formula! That is going to be like a pay increase for us!! For those who don't know about it, it costs about $16.00 a 13.1oz can. A 48oz. can of regular formula at Sam's club costs us $19.00!! They also get to start eating meat baby food and finger foods! We bought some Gerber Graduate puffs and some Cheerios yesterday for them to start eating.

Caitlyn is getting this crawling down pretty good. We were packing for Richmond and when we went into the living room and Caitlyn was trying to escape and get down the hallway!! She is also trying to stand on her feet when she crawls.

Ashton has started to sit up on his own. He will go from laying down, to being on his hands and knees, to sitting up!! He is sitting up all the time now!! He hasn't mastered the crawling yet. He is still going backwards or rolling around. Somehow he got into the hallway by the bathroom & bedrooms last night. Still haven't figured out how he got there!

Brittany is sitting up on her own now. She has started to army crawl a little bit. She loves to say Baa-Baa now.  She is starting to get her 3rd tooth, one on the top. Caitlyn and Brittany are going to have a bunch of teeth before Ashton has any!!

We are getting ready to go camping this weekend at the campground in Kings Dominion!!
