I want to first apologize to everyone for not updating the site since the twins’ birthday. I have over 100 photos taken, but haven’t really organized them or gotten around to uploading any…So, here a few shots of Chloe and Sage, age 12-18 months.
They both starting walking in January. We expected Chloe to walk first, since she was crawling for 2 months before Sage was, but the little guy just saw Chloe on two legs and decided that that was way better than crawling on all fours! Sage soon followed.
Words, words, words…Chloe loves to say “owl”. She learned it from a picture book we have and can’t stop saying it! Sage’s favorite is “up” when he wants to be picked up or when he want to get up on furniture. It’s funny when they mimic each other, too :)
We will promise to be better and try to post things more frequently!

About 2 weeks ago now the twins started to take more than just a step or two.

When I got back from a trip to San Francisco, they seem to have really gotten the hang of it.

The twins turned 1-year- old on November 6th! They had a fun-filled day with family, presents, and carrot cake.
Chloe and Sage continue to amaze us- they’re still small for their age, but they’ve grown steadily and are healthy, happy babies :)
Chloe is close to walking. She can let go of something and take 2 steps before she falls down. Sage is happy crawling around still, but once he sees his sister on 2 feet he’ll be right behind.

Sage likes to point to everything. Matt thinks his first word is “up”, but I think he’s just making sounds still. He says “up” to everything he points to :)

Chloe and Sage love to chase each other and be chased by Mommy & Daddy. They love to be turned upside down, too- we get lots of laughs that way. The twins love to wave bye-bye when feeling social and clap their hands when they’re excited. The whole family has loads of fun playing peek-a-boo.

Well, today the twins are 9 months old. Chloe just started to crawl 3 days ago and she can go from crawling to sitting up by herself.

Sage is still not very interested in trying to crawl yet. He is just laid back and likes to be held more than his sister. Chloe seems to rather be on the floor than anywhere else for now. Chloe has 2 bottom teeth, 1 upper tooth and a 2nd upper coming in now. Sage still has only the 1 bottom tooth, but you can see others under the gums, so he is teething. They are eating solids 3 times a day now. No allergies yet. We are trying to introduce finger food, just bread crumbs for now. It’s been hot in Maine, so the kids have been outside strolling a lot. Here is a short video I made the other day of the twins.
