The Holley Family

Two of my good friends have taken on "Project 365" and have inspired me to do the same. Basically, the goal is to take one picture everyday for a year and to post the picture along with a brief description. It's been quite interesting and entertaining to follow these women's adventures and while I don't anticipate my posts to be as exciting as a new college grad or someone studying/traveling in Europe, I thought this would be a unique way to document the first year of the littles' lives. I can just about guarantee that this blog will not be updated daily and perhaps not even weekly, but I'll give it my best effort to post on a regular basis. My hope is that this will be a popular site for the grandparents, godparents, aunties, uncles, cousins, and friends of the littles and that this can be a fun way to watch them grow.

*November, 2011* We made it through the year, and I thought perhaps I'd try to redesign the blog for the future, intermittent updates. But, this twin mom is going to keep it simple and just keep going. Do not expect daily photos; we'll just post highlights from now on. Enjoy.

1st Ornaments

December 13, 2010

Josie and Noah received their first ornaments from Nonna and are putting them on the tree (with Dad's help).

Grandma's Visiting

December 12, 2010

Enjoying some cozy time with grandma before it's time for bed.

Busy Day

December 11, 2010

1. I left the littles behind with Grandma and joined the mini-twinnies play group. At this point it's more of a play group for the moms, but I look forward to having Josie and Noah meet everyone the next time we get together.
2. Brian brought the boys over for a visit (Brayden, Brody and Branson). Branson was born a couple of months before the littles, but Noah is catching up to him in size.
3. Great-grandma and Aunt Penny joined us for the afternoon.

Bath Time

December 10, 2010

Although you can't tell from the picture, Josie actually likes her baths more than Noah. The two of them have come a long way from the newborns who hated their baths!

Distracted

December 9, 2010

Grandma got into town and because we were having so much fun, we forgot to take a photo.

The other Inspiration

December 8, 2010

This is my friend Jess - the other inspiration for the blog. Jess spent the last year in Europe studying and traveling and we're thrilled to have her back "home." She and I worked together the year before and I basically spent more time with her than I did with Bennett because we had to work crazy hours. I'm glad she finally got to meet the littles.

Raspberries

December 7, 2010

Josie's new favorite pastime is blowing raspberries.
