Big Things are Happening!

(For some reason, Blogger won't let me upload photos right now. They're coming, though, I promise so sit tight!)

My boy is walking. My BOY is WALKING! MY BABY BOY IS WALKING!!
I cannot believe it myself! The twins are now 10 months old and sweet little Donny took his first steps on October 19! His grandpa was here to witness it. He'd been standing up and trying to take a step for quite some time, but all of a sudden, he just DID it! He took off and hasn't stopped walking yet!


Olivia, on the other hand, hasn't quite mastered walking just yet. She can stand up by herself, but can only manage to get her right leg to move. The result is her turning in a circle, kind of pivoting. It's the funniest, cutest thing I've ever seen. I am so blessed, and my cup truly runneth over!

We've been pretty busy lately, which is why I haven't gotten to blog much, but I'll try and catch up now:
Grandma came to visit at the beginning of October, and we went and picked pumpkins! The babies had a blast hunting for the perfect ones, and Little Donny even dove head-first into the patch to pick his! He had a few scratches on his face, but was otherwise unphased.

Grandpa came for a visit 2 weeks after Grandma, and we had such a good time with him! Of course, the highlight of his visit was seeing Baby Donny walk, but it was nice to relax and soak up the Grampa-Love! the babies also got to see their very first Auburn football game! Auburn played Arkansas, and WON!! The Holloway Twins must've been the Tigers' good luck charm that night!

Also, Uncle Darrin came back for visit. The babies are ALWAYS excited to see their Uncle Darrin; he's like Santa Claus, always bringing presents for the children!

Also, Tia Courtney will be coming by this Thursday and staying until Saturday. Then mommy and babies (and Tia!) will all be headed up to Grandma and Grandpa's house until Thanksgiving. We are sad that Daddy wont be able to come with, but he'll use this time to get back on track and catch up with his schoolwork!

A little about each baby:
Donovan
- is getting his two front teeth on top, but his right one has descended first.
- likes to eat EVERYTHING his mama eats, and loves his Sippy Cup!
- loves to walk now and would rather walk than crawl even though crawling gets him around faster
- still loves to smile and laughs easily

Olivia
- is getting her two front teeth on top, but her left one has descended first
- still prefers to be nursed instead of taking a bottle (even at 2AM), but still likes her Sippy Cup
- sees her brother walk and tries to copy him
- loves dogs; anytime she sees one, she will make a barking noise to get their attention!
- is a very happy baby; still loves to laugh, squeal, and smile all the time
