Neverending Food!

I am just shocked by the volume of food the kiddos are eating these days. Clara has always been willing to eat a good amount, and now Hank has caught up and overtaken her eating tendencies! We are making it through the equivalent of 12-15 jars a day. I'm trying to continue to make a good portion of their food, but their food demands are exceeding my time allowances. We did start quinoa this week, which they liked. Have you ever tasted that stuff? I can't say I was much of a fan, but I'm glad they like it at least.

We get them weighed at their nine month appointment in less than two weeks. I am super curious to see how much they weigh at this point. I tried to dress Hank in a six month outfit today, and it was too small. Unbelievable! I feel like my little, tiny babies have actual turned into good size infants all of a sudden.

As the summer is coming to an end, we went on a short day trip earlier this week. We found a little dinner in the middle of nowhere that made wonderful pie. We then went for a short hike. Here are the kids taking a break on the hiking trail:



Both the kids have figured out how to crawl backwards at this point. It's great and amusing. They move slowly but enjoy the slip-slid of the hardwood floor. Hank is beginning to rock on his back legs, so I wonder if crawling isn't too far away!
