Noah may now love Nonna's visits more than I do. Since she's left, every time the phone rings he says "Nonna?"
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.

Great-Grandma's Birthday
October 23, 2011
Great-grandma's birthday was a true cause for celebration. I'm still kicking myself that we didn't get a picture of her with Josie and Noah, but overall, we had a wonderful visit with everyone. (And Josie and Noah did a great job sitting with all of us at the dinner table.)

A mom's gotta do what a mom's gotta do

I packed up the kids and headed to Chuck's retirement party. We received quite a bit of attention, but I didn't want to risk a double melt-down in the middle of the fancy Prelude. Fortunately there were many hands on deck to help out and entertain the littles.

Like Dad

Grandma and Grandpa have a photo of Ben in one of their kitchen drawers. Apparently it runs in the family. And as proof that our Jo is truly a little, that outfit is a hand-me-down from her cousin Tori. Tori wore it when she was about 6 months old.

Indoor Fun
October 15, 2011
Reinforcements arrived in the mail. Bracing ourselves for the cabin fever that is sure to ensue, we ordered a small play structure for the living room. At first, the slide lived behind a fence, only to be used during immediate supervision. But once they learned to climb the fence (more on that in a future post), the slide is now free game. And boy do they play! Here they are on a couple of occasions:
