Month 10 rolls into town with an extra helping of talking and standing but still an astonishing lack of hair.
Photos can be found in the photos bit ----- over there ------->
There are pictures of *real* people in there too and, quite frankly, an awful lot of comedy baby faces...

The twins have been christened - we think. May I introduce Chubbler and Puddlechuck. Toby and Madeleine are just middle names....
It was a great day - with a very good turnout. The priest even did the service in English. Signs were not encouraging when he said: "Well, I forgot my Baptism book but I brought Weddings and Funerals, shall I just make it up?" But, despite this, it went very well indeed.
We had drinks and nibbles afterwards in our road where La Cave opened especially. Vin D'Orange, lots of grub and more little Madeleines than it was humanly possible to eat.
So we have loads of pictures uploaded, just click Photos, Christening and there they are... Feel free to send me some if you have any better ones and I will add them here.
Thanks to everyone who came, and the twins say thanks for all the pressies....

Month 9 already... and we have now spilled over to a second page of photos...
This month Toby has mainly learned to stand and talk gibberish to himself. Just like his old man. Madeleine, meanwhile, is the sitting queen - not so keen on the old crawling thing just yet thank you. Hey that sounds like me too.
They are both still bald mind. Mads has another tooth, Toby does not have any. And they started on the meat and veg too. Er, what else do you need to know?

Somebody finally took the handbrake off Toby and after a few weeks of flapping his arms and legs around without going anyway, this month he went somewhere... fast.
Madeleine, meanwhile, has had a visit from the tooth monkey and left two little (sharp) pointy things on her bottom gums.
They have seen some changes this month all in all. They are both on solids now and eating happily - Mads has gone from being the slow guzzler to the FEED ME NOW!!! style of table etiquette, whereas Tobes goes for the long leisurely 2-hour lunch break. They seem to eat most things except carrots oddly but the rule of thumb is the greener sludgeler the better.
They also have shiny new beds in their new room, a few new toys and play things and they tried another pram this month too. Whoa those kids are adventurous.
Month 8 pics are up and running and feature a guest - not to mention a surprise - appearance from the Rabbi. You should be able to tell the difference between the pics of them here – hot – and the mountains where they took a little break – not hot.

Our first holiday with the twins and to keep it easy we took them to Italy. It was fantastic. Firstly the place we stayed in was a palace. All painted ceilings and antique furniture, perfect for two messy babies...
And everywhere we went the twins were mobbed - well as much as little old ladies can mob anything - sort of slow low level mobbing I suppose. Mads even made friends with waiters - there'll be none of that behaviour when she's older...
All in all a perfect holiday. Enjoy the pics - most of them were taken at the villa we were staying at, just to give you some idea... But be warned - due to overwhelming demand - for the first time big people may appear in these photos....
