Katelyn was a food pioneer today! She ate peas like a champ, tried a couple Cheerios, and is enjoying a graham cracker in this pic–well, lets just say shes getting used to the texture.

Katelyn was super tired tonight and in bed when I got home, so I didnt get a photo for today. Oops! But heres a pic of her crazy outfit on the 5th. I must have been tired because there clearly was no effort put into this get-up!

Playing around with Dads hat today…

Katelyn had fun playing with Evin in her room today. Shes all about just crawling over something when its in her way…

Katelyn pulled herself up all by herself! I cant believe how strong she is. Ill post a video as soon as I can get one!

Evin got to pick a toy out and he picked a musical saxophone that blows bubbles. He called it his snarfblat–a term from The Little Mermaid. He broke it immediately, but Vince was able to get it all fixed up using some glue gun magic!

Katelyn just ooooed and ahhhhed all of the snow birds (aka-old people). Apparently, they dont see young ones very often!

We also picked up some yummy veggies from the farmers market, which made some delicious guacamole for dinner. Yum!

Katelyn went back to the doctor today to get her ear and lungs checked out. All clear!.

Katelyn is very much into pulling her up to a standing position. Shell just do it over and over and over…

Katelyn had a messy lunch today–sweet potatoes and peas!

So, I started two digital books on Shutterfly.com (using Project Life templates) and I go in every week or two and add the photos I’ve collected over the days. I use my iPhone to take 99% (if not all) of the pictures. It’s easy, quick and I can edit the photos and upload them to Shutterfly and post to this blog directly from various apps on my phone.

Anywho – I’m pretty excited for the end of the year to see how the books turn out. It’s going to be soooo much fun to look back through all of the pics–especially since the kids are so young and changing so fast. I’m hoping make this a tradition every year, because it’s so easy and fun.

I’ve also been uploading the daily photos to our website. I have a pages for both Evin and Katelyn. I’m going to try and their pics every day so you all can see them.  You can find their pages at any time by going up to the “Project 365″ link in the top nav bar. There’s an option for both Evin and Katelyn.

Here are their daily photos from January 31st… I’ll try to add captions to the daily posts.

Evin has been working hard at not sucking his thumb anymore–a more detailed post to come at a later date. This was his prize for the day. He was soooo excited to come home and get his rubber chicken. He even took it to school with him the next day. Funny what kids think are cool.

This pic is of Katelyn playing around with her new sippy cup. She doesn’t have the hang of it yet, but I’ve given it to her so she can start figuring it out! She’s growing up so fast!
