Well, almost to the day, it's taken 18 months, but Emma and Taylor sat by themselves today during physical therapy. They were so happy, and so were we! They adjust their legs as they are comfortable but mostly do a "V" sit with their legs and cross over each others to make a base. We put pillows around them so they could get resistance off their arms and hold themselves up. And as always, they got rewarded with their snacks for working so hard. Here are a few pictures:

YAY for Taylor and Emma! Pretty soon you will be strong enough to begin walking - then mom won't know what to do with the two of you.
That is such great news! I'm so happy for Emma and Taylor, and Mom and Dad!
What a beautiful family!

Have a great weekend!

We are so happy to be able to see their progress. Give all those kids hugs from their uncle and aunt!:)
Look at those HAPPY FACES! They seem so proud of themselves, and they should be. They are beyond darling.
good job girls!!! what a big step. i'm sure that they were so excited.
Yay!! That is so exciting. It was so fun to see you at Stake Conference, even if it was only for a few moments before it started. Your family is adorable!
Congrats you guys! My best wishes to the family.

Your family has given all of us a new perspective on life! Our prayers are with you whatever course you choose to take. Great job on the blog, Sarah! Lots of Love...
It's wonderful to hear the good news about their development. Your blog is certainly an eye-opener to the real pace of the life of conjoined twins.
I am far more used to the quick shots on the discovery channel which span months and years in the course of one or two commercial breaks. We meet the twins, they undergo tests and then WHAM! the operation.
I think that your work helps to show that there are definitely things going on between the scenes.
I wish your family all the best through the all the rest of your behind the scenes moments. It's a great thing to see how proud of themselves they are. I'm sure they'll have lots more to be proud of in the coming years.
beautiful babies. read through your blog and wow you guys are amazing. I love the pictures. Congratulations on the girls sitting up that is great.
Glad to see the girls are progressing. I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw you guys on the Today show. Talk about a blast from the past. Hope all is well. If you guys ever make it to SoCal look me up I would love to do pics for you guys.
Hey, it's been a while since you last updated. I would love to see how the girls are doing! Hope everything is well. :)
