Well, we had an eventful weekend with several more "firsts" for Addison and Fischer.  To start, Fischer is completely formula-free for the first time! Addison is just getting 1 ounce of formula per feeding, and should be formula-free by Wednesday when we will most likely run out of formula.  It's so strange!

On Saturday, we went downtown to walk around and enjoy the near-perfect weather.  We decided to take Scott's car now that he has 2 car seats of his own! Also, in his car, the seats are facing forward. So, Addison and Fischer got to ride facing forward for the first time. They seemed to love it, and I loved being able to turn around and see them so easily.  In my car, they are still rear-facing, and we have the mirrors on the headrests, which is how I see them.  The doctor gave us the OK to turn the seats around, but I wanted to wait another month (until the end of March) to give Fischer a chance to bulk up a bit more. :) So that means soon, we'll be turning the seats in my car around too.

Here they are in the seats... Fischer was much more excited than he appears to be in the picture.




Saturday night, we were all playing in the kitchen.  Scott and I have been trying to get both Addison and Fischer to take some steps by holding their hands and encouraging and/or bribing them to walk.  They both normally sit down and crawl to us instead.  Saturday night, however, they BOTH took steps while we held their hands for a little extra support.  Fischer was the first and took about 3. Addison didn't want to be outdone, so she took around 10 steps! They are also both showing much more interest in their walkers, so I think it's only a matter of time until they have enough confidence to take some steps on their own!

Here are some pictures from the weekend. Addison loves playing with Scott's hats...






I can hardly believe that Addison and Fisher are 13 months old today. I feel like they are looking more and more like "kids" instead of babies everyday!
