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.

Funny Sounds

April 13, 2011

One of Josie's new favorite sounds to make.

Jo Fro

April 12, 2011
Josie and Noah still don't have much hair, but it is starting to grow (Thank God; I can't wait to put pigtails in Josie's hair). Anyway, it looks as though Jo may take after her Mama after all. If you look closely you can see the first signs of a Jo Fro on the top of her head. (And since the 12th, there is now a definite "Alfalfa curl" as Ben likes to call it.)

A Spoon full of Sugar

April 11, 2011
Although I do laundry all of the time, it finds a way to pile up. Good thing taking breaks to play with my dynamic duo can make any chore easier to swallow.

Like Dad

April 10, 2011

We had a great day with visitors, but I was too distracted catching up with them to take a "photo of the day." In the morning, Auntie Karina returned from her 3 week trip to Atlanta. She was cheating on us with her sister Sabrina and her new nephew Booker. We can't wait to meet little Booker and we're so happy Karina is home! Later, our friends Jeff and Stacy brought over lunch and then hung out with the littles for a bit. Here's a photo of Noah playing with Ben's hat after our afternoon bike ride.

Standing in her Crib

April 9, 2011
Josie has started to stand in her crib, so it's time to lower her mattress too. Will they both really make it in their mini-cribs until they are 2?

Climbing

April 8, 2011

Time to take child-proofing to a new level as Noah discovers his ability to climb. (Since the 8th, he's continued to climb on whatever he can, which for now is only our baby-gate and Josie.)

Exploring

April 7, 2011

Josie is gaining confidence in her motor skills and enjoys exploring her toys in new ways. She's gotten herself into some tight places and with persistence, has gotten herself out of them too.
