9 months and new ventures

I honestly can't believe my babies are 9 months old!
So much has happened in the last 9 months and it is truly amazing at how fast those little buggers grow! They are BOTH crawling/scooting now - yep, Andrew's finally moving around. Well, he's capable of moving around. Sometimes, he just continues to lay or sit there, happy as a little clam, inspecting any toy in his reach. Both babies can get from a sitting position to their tummies, and today Andrew sat straight up from laying down (that might have been a fluke - I can't imagine how he did that!). They push up onto their knees, but have not mastered crawling that way yet (thankfully, I can still catch them!). Luke is pulling up on short things, and gets to his knees, but has not yet attempted something tall to stand next to, although he does like standing next to things when he is placed there. So, something new happens around here every day!
Daycare is great! They are taking good naps now (no, they weren't before) and are eating well for Kelly. When I go to pick them up, they're outside in their stroller waiting for me after just having been out for a walk, and I swear they recognize the car! They're waving their arms as soon as I park. Most days it's just them and Kelly's 1 or 2 kids (some days the 5-year old goes to Kindergarten). We're feeling pretty good about it so far! We will, however be starting to go part-time to daycare because Grandma Judy just misses the boys so much, she wants to come once a week to babysit!
So, on to the "New Venture" part of the title. Anyone who reads my blog knows how "crazy" I am about toxins (I prefer to call it informed :) ). I am going to start selling DAISY BLUE NATURAL products. If you haven't heard of them, they are a company based out of Minnesota that makes natural soaps, lotions, baby products, spa products, make-up, shampoo, laundry detergent, etc. I hosted a party last week, and the products were too good to pass up (they smell WONDERFUL and my house still smells like their pillow spray that Nicole sprayed on my chair pillow). (By the way, if you ordered anything, it's coming to my house TODAY, so I'll get it to you soon!) So, if you ever want to have a spa party (with foot spa and hand spa) or are interested in looking at anything, let me know! I'll get you a sample!
So, that's about it for now! (Isn't that enough?)
