Talk, talk, talk! 7 1/2 months and growing!

So if you can't tell by now, the children were born into a U of M family! Grandpa is going to the game Saturday, maybe someday he will get to take Charlotte and Grayson. Have fun at the Big House!

All they really wanted to do with their jerseys was eat the pretty shiny fabric! They will understand the true meaning of Saturday afternoons football games in a few years. Will be teaching them the fight song as soon as they can sing! Go Blue!

So Grayson has overcome his first viral infection turned ear infection. He was at the doctor's office, ER, and back to the doctor's office in 4 days time, but managed to gain 2 pounds in a month-19.1 lbs. His poor bottom is paying the repercussions now. Chapped, hot, miserable. Poor little man, but he is all smiles and a happy little man again. He gladly says Da-da now, which I think was way too much fun for his daddy. Grayson loves to rock back and forth on all fours, and has taken a couple of strides, but to no avail. Any day we will have a rock star crawler amongst us. Go Gray Go!

Our little Charlotte, finally broke her 2nd tooth threw, it just didn't want to poke threw, but she handled it like a trooper! Sleeping through the night 4-5 nights last week, we were on cloud nine, as her brother was so sick and up every 1-2 hours. She might just stand up and walk on us, she likes to get on all fours and and stand with her butt in the air, legs straight, arms straight, but can't quite lift up that head of hers! She has also started to enjoy calling her dad Da-da, non-stop. She no longers asks for her Ma-ma though?

Too funny, they wrestle each other to get to the camera! Pretty funny to sit and watch. Grayson actually clotheslined her and plopped right down on her belly like he was pinning her for the count 1-2-3! And she screamed, until she saw the camera! All smiles after that..

Shiny happy people! What a year it has been so far. They have changed so much, they look more and more alike each day, but still different. Their personalities keep evolving and is enchanting to watch. They hold conversations with each other and we wish we could understand their babble. We hope you all have a great Labor day holiday. Take Care.

I get such a lift from reading your blog and watching the babies grow (since I am so far away)! They are beautiful, loveable and gorgeous. Charlotte is a carbon copy of you when you were born! Beautiful! Grayson is adorable too...I just wish I could hug them both and then give you the biggest hug in the world. I am so proud of you Beth! Happy to hear Gray is feeling better!! Love you, Vicki
