What a Face!!!

If you can't already tell, I just cannot get enough of this sweet face!!!

Lawn Mower Ride With Daddy

Blake took Taylor on her first lawn mower ride! Not too sre what she thought about it, but I think Blake had fun!! I'm sure this is the first of many!

Bath Time Has Gone To A Whole New Level

Since Taylor has learned to crawl and pull up, bath time is much more difficult. She is now wanting to pull up in her bath tub and stand up! It is really difficult to hang on to a slippery baby when she is intent on standing. I was going to try and get a few pictures of it, but didn't feel safe enough to take my hands off of her. So, you'll just have to take my word for how cute it was!

Oh My Goodness!!!

Well, I had to update, since this afternoon. Not only did Taylor start crawling today, but she decided to pull up too! I always set her down in her crib while I am getting her bath ready. When I came back, she was standing there looking at me! Time to lower the crib again! Oh my, this is moving way too fast!

Taylor Is Crawling!!!!

Yep, you read it right!! She took her first couple of "crawls" today! Let the baby-proofing and chasing begin!!

Taylor's First Camping Trip.

We took Taylor on her first camping trip this weekend. It is so hard to believe that this time last year we were talking about taking her camping, I was still pregnant, and just getting over my morning sickness! Wow, how time is flying by. We went to Cedars of Lebanon since it is half way between Cookeville and Pegram. We also thought it would be close in case Taylor didn't like camping and we needed to head back early. Well, we did not have to use that plan at all. Taylor loved camping! She loves being outside in general, so this was right up her alley! She played very well in her pack and play, and even slept in it the first night! We did lots of fun stuff with her as well. We went on walks, played in the swings, listened to live music, and ate lots of good food. She ate her solid food better this weekend than she ever has! She even took her bedtime bath outside!! The only down side to the weekend was Saturday night. I believe she was thirsty from being hot outside all day, and she nursed for over an hour (which is very unusual for her at this age). When I went to put her to bed, a cop came through the campgroun with lights flashing. I decided not to put her down yet so I could see what was going on. While I was holding her she woke up and spit up quite a bit. I figured she at too much and didn't think much about it. Well, she ended up throwing up (projectile style) three more times. At this point I was very worried. We called the after hours nurse line, and they told us to watch her and not let her get dehydrated. She slept on me the rest of the night, and I didn't sleep at all. She ended up being fine, but I was a nervous wreck! I guess that just comes along with being a parent! The next morning she was fine. She woke up and was her happy little self! It was a great trip overall, and I can't wait to take her camping again!

Hercules refuses to look at Taylor! Oh, the things we do to get a baby to smile!

We love our evening walks!!

A Play Day With Savannah

Today, Grandmama brought Savannah up to spend the day with us. She was very excited to spend the day playing with Taylor! We had a very full day. We visited Jackie and Don at the office, went on a picnic, played on the trains at the depot, and went to the library. After all that fun, we came back to the house to rest. Taylor took a nap while Savannah watched a Clifford video we got at the library. I think Blake and I needed a nap too! We had a great day! Here are the highlights!

Savannah wanted to push Taylor's stroller everywhere!

Hanging Out With Grana and Grandaddy

My Mom and Dad stayed overnight with us after my birthday celebration. Here are a few pics from Sunday before they headed home.

Happy Birthday Mommy!

Last night we celebrated my birthday with family at the Foglight Foodhouse. It was a wonderful meal and a great time with family. The Foglight is one of my favorite places to go, and it has kind of become a tradition to celebrate my birthday there. Of course, this year Taylor had a little more attention, but that was fine with me. The biggest surprise of the night was tickets to go see Wicked in September from Blake and Taylor. I got lots of other great gifts too! I always feel very blessed on my birthday, and this year was no different!

Very Yummy Cake!

At The Drive-In Again.

For my birthday, one of the things I asked for was to be able to see the new Harry Potter movie. Since the best way for us to go to movies right now is the drive-in, we packed up last night and went! Our friends Kyle and Christinne came with their little boy Jacob who is 4 weeks younger than Taylor. They had a blast playing with each other! Taylor did really well considering the only time she is around other babies is during class at church. She was more interested in Jacob than he was in her, and sometimes she just wanted to roll around in the back of the pathfinder! She did wonderful the whole time there. She slept soundly during most of the movie and I was able to watch it! Hopefully, we will try to catch one more movie this summer as a family. Until then, enjoy this pictures from our night out!
