Our growing "Baby Gage"...

In the last 24 hours two people, one being my mother, have told me that gone is "Baby Gage." Honestly, who is this big guy who's taken his place?! I know that I say and think this all the time, but where has nine months gone? Gage still crawls everywhere--and our favorite thing these days is to watch him chase Gavin around the house on all fours, playing hide-and- seek and laughing in delight when he finds his big brother--and stands up on everything, but he shows no immediate signs of walking yet. He's so much fun. His smiles melt our hearts.

I don't know if I've already commented on Gage's second haircut or not, but this one was really official, with a cape and clippers and scissors...the whole deal. Our boys' hair grows so fast! It feels like I'm taking them to get their hair cut every time I turn around. Another thing that makes babies look less like babies--besides the young hair cuts--is when you start dressing them in real pants, right? That always does it for me. Gage has a whole drawer of pants now!
