Ten Months Old.

Here's Owen, excited at the prospect of grabbing my camera.

A few pictures of the both of them, exploring the baby gate.

This one is blurry, but it really captures the tongue hanging out, which Jonah did constantly for a couple of weeks.

Uncle Brian got them some shirts in India that were too big when he first came back. Now, they're just about too small. But I squeezed the boys into the shirts anyway because I really wanted to get some photos of them.

Here's Owen in his shirt.

Jonah in his...

and some shots of them playing with a watering can together. If they're playing with a large toy, they can sometimes go for a few minutes before they fight over it and cry.

Jonah playing, Owen looking at me.

Now Owen playing, and Jonah looking.

Oops, now they heard Mama in the kitchen!

This is probably the biggest mess we've had at dinnertime, so far. Jonah just kept flailing his arms and whacking the spoon. That's mashed carrot and applesauce all over the place, I think.

A video of them playing peekaboo through the door. Very funny.

Here's more eating photos. First one of Owen.

And Jonah eating cereal:

Then a homemade blueberry and banana popsicle.

A few last assorted shots from the month...

They both understand a lot of words now, one being "drum", as demonstrated by Owen.

Here's Jonah having story time with mama. They LOVE to read books!

And finally Jonah exploring the toy storage area (housed the stereo, VCR, and DVD player prior to mobile babies!), which they empty out all over the living room floor every morning.
