A Present For Mommy!!!

I know parents always say that they love anything their children give them, but I'm not so sure I'm going to like this present!!!

Not Looking Good For The Home Team...

Taylor is scared of balls!!! She was playing with one this weekend, and every time it would get close to her she would start crying. This is not looking good for her playing basketball!

Yummo!

Doesn't that toe look good?

Cousin Jennifer's Shower

Blake's cousin Jennifer is getting married in September. We had a shower for her this weekend in Nashville. It was a great weekend to see family and celebrate the upcoming wedding! Here are the pictures from the weekend!

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!

Playing in her pack and play

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

Our Evening Walk.

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!
