8 months old and full of energy

The girls are now 8 months old and a few days and are definitely keeping us busy. Our schedule is normally like so:
between 5-6a Ireland wakes up (Jake normally gets up to feed her if it is early enough for him to get ready too)
between 6:30-7a Ava wakes up

There are sometimes naps, but normally not. If there are naps, it is only for a short period of time. Ireland took a 2 hr nap today and Ava didn't take one until I went for a little drive.

Jake will get home around 3p and then I get a break!!! I basically go into work or work in the back of the house for about 4 hrs...

They both pull themselves to stand and Ava even tries to take a walk. She took one step the other day, but then stopped and sat down. Ireland is getting really good at picking small things up. They are growing up so fast!

They started eating solid foods a while back...they love everything! I haven't found anything at all that they don't like! Is that good or bad? :)

We are off for a trip to Denver in April so we can try to setup our move and hopefully get jobs. I am still trying to work from home...we will see if it is possible! :) I am hoping to get more into my photography. I really want to take a class just to refresh everything I learned a long time ago...

Jake is wanting to go back to school for nursing...he wants to either be an OR or ER nurse...I am all for it...we just need to find time to fit it in and be able to pay our bills!! Tough!

All is well in Grayland...hope all is well for everyone else!
