Lauren (left) and Sophie, almost 9 months old and cuter than ever. My September visit to the mountains was more fun than ever -- chasing speedy crawlers, practicing "standing up," and singing, reading and re-learning all the old nursery rhymes. I can see it won't be long before we're off running and jumping (hopefully not off the stairs.) The October visit will take place in Chicago as they plan to come and visit both their great-grandmothers, both grandmothers and whoever else lines up to meet them.
Poor kids, they don't have any toys!
