Busy busy busy

Our house is abuzz with development these days! The babies turn 10 months a week from today.

Silas figured out hands and knees crawling on Monday. He has been moving around like a worm up until now, but he finally figured out the alternating motion of real crawling. Here's a video showing them coming after my new phone.



Silas started babbling consonants two days ago and Zoe started today. Moving from vowels to consonants is a big step in terms of language development. It really changes each baby's personality! You can hear a little bit of this babbling from each of them in this longer video. I can't wait for them to "talk" to all the grandparents on skype this weekend!



Finally, you can see how they react to and explore a brand new toy in this video.



The new play spaces we have recently carved out are so great, and we find ourselves having to childproof more and more everyday. They discover things we never thought of! It feels a little like a romper room around here much of the time, and they definitely keep us on our toes! Here's a few shots of them following bedtime bottles tonight :)

Silas' Blog

Well it's been a busy 3 years since I last posted! Stay tuned as we may have more posts coming now that it looks like I have a new contributor... Silas recently read a book called "Starting Your Own Blog", and now he is bound and determined for us to let him start his own blog! We convinced him that he should start out by drafting content and a posting calendar. We made templates this morning and he wrote his first "post" today!

The Best of Project 366

2012 is coming to a close and I have officially completed Project 366 ! I managed to take and post and keep track of 365 photos out of 366 total days this year. I only missed one day and it was for a pretty good cause . Believe me, these pictures don't take themselves. I shot just under 7000 pictures this year. Once I got an iPhone in March all of the pictures were taken with my phone (~ 5500 pictures!). The camera on the iPhone is really good, I always have it with me, and I like playing around with the filters and other editing tools available in photography apps like Instagram, Camera+, Diptic, and Gridditor. Since I have put so much time, love and energy into Project 366 I thought I should select a few "Best Of's". I had a great time putting this together, and I hope you enjoy these highlights as well!

The Blog Book is Here!!!

My friend, Tom, told me about a website where you can order a bound copy of your blog. I've had it on my radar for awhile, but I finally just got around to making a book of the first year of entries. It starts with 'Icing on the Cake' , the last entry before they were born, and it ends with Halloween . It turned out better than I could have imagined! I cried when I opened it... One hundred ninety-four pages of love, photos, stories, and milestones!
