Merry Christmas

Santa Clause came to our ward Christmas party and Taylor got a chance to meet him. You can tell from the picture...that she is soooooooo excited!! She wasn't scared at all to go to him, but wasn't excited at all either. The look of indifference that is on her face in this picture is how she looked the whole time...well, until she got her candy!!
Taylor likes to shut herself in the hall bathroom without the lights on. (She still can't open doors!!) So Rob decided that she needed a light!! We couldn't get it away from her and she had a wonderful time shutting herself in the bathroom for another 20 minutes!

Winter Wonderland

So we were supposed to have the "Storm of the Century" a few days ago...and it was an utter disappointment!! Nothing even stuck to the ground! But this morning we woke up to a couple of inches of snow!! Rob has meetings all morning, so Tay and I got bundled up and headed outside!

Taylor has really started to enjoy being read to. I caught her on the couch a few days ago reading her favorite book!!

Halloween

It's kind of sad to admit, but I got the idea for our costumes because Rob and I have been playing a lot of Super Mario Bros on the Wii! We had to bribe Tay to wear her toad hat!! She loved all the candy that it earned her!!

It's a Girl!!

A couple of weeks ago, we had our 20 week ultrasound. We decided to take Taylor with us since it was at 7:30 in the morning. She was pretty good for most of the ultrasound, but was beginning to get a little restless...until this image came onto the screen. All of the sudden, she came to life! She stook up on Rob's lap and started pointing and yelling at the screen. I guess that she recognized her little sister!!

Summer Catch-Up

I can't believe how fast the summer months have flown by!! For those of you who haven't heard, we're expecting baby #2 and are really excited!! I spent most of the month of July on "bed rest" because of a rip in a low placenta that caused some bleeding. The baby has now grown big enough that the placenta is moving up to where it should be and I have been able to get back to normal life!!
We had planned a trip to San Francisco with some friends, but with the bed rest, ended up cancelling. Instead we got to go and visit my parent in Casper. We had lots of fun and got to go camping at Natural Bridge. Taylor loves camping...and loves corn cobs!


Saturday we decided to get some shooting in. I haven't shot a gun in many years!! It was fun to get out and shoot. My shoulder was a little sore from the 12 gauge! :)


Grandma preffered to sit and take it all in!

I was glad that I could still hit a few skeet!!

Taylor went to play with her friend Addison so that we could go to the temple with BJ and his fiancee Paige. While there, Addison was taking a bath and her mom stepped away to grab something ... well, to her surprise...Taylor was in the bath with Addison upon her return!! My little girl loves water!!


I thought that I would include this picture!! My little girl is not a baby anymore!! She loves to let me make her hair pretty with little pig tails!! She's growing up fast and will be a great big sister!

Sleepy Eater

Tay spent yesterday and last night at Grandma and Grandpa Jorgensens...and I think she wore herself out!! You decide...

Catch Up

The summer is kind of getting away from me!! I haven't been very good at keeping the blog updated...so here is a really abbreviated synopsis...
Tay absolutely loved her first ice cream cone!!
We're excited to hike again this summer with Angie. We have conquered Squaw Peak twice already. This pic is me looking the best...the next trip wasn't as good to me!


On Memorial Day we went for a little hike with Uncle BJ, Soon-to-Be Aunt Paige, and Devin. Taylor clearly enjoyed the hike!! Here are some more pics.

2 Big 1sts!!

Taylor has decided that crawling isn't enough for her!! We've been prodding her, with no success, to take those first steps. Well, the other night we were sitting in the basement with some friends and here comes Taylor walking out from behind the pool table, and she hasn't stopped since. She's all about walking except when she takes a spill! :) This picture has nothing to do with walking but it is cute. Her next big 1st is...

her first time going to the bathroom on a toilet!! I know that she's still a little young, but I thought why not get her used to the seat. We got the seat and she was enthrawled by it. Well, the very first time we put her on the seat, she totally let loose and went #1!! She was all smiles as Dad and I cheered her on. Probably a freak coincidence, but we're still proud of her! We've only had one other success since that first time...but it's only been two days!!

Cathedral Valley

Rob has had spring fever VERY bad lately, and finally I told him that we had to get away for the weekend. So...we dropped Tay off at Grandpa and Grandma's and headed south. We wanted some rustic camping...but got this...
It actually ended up better because this campground was much lower in elevation, which translates into a warmer night for me. Saturday morning we headed out from Fruita for Cathedral Valley. Here are some fun pics from our day.

Happy Birthday Taylor!

We decided to celebrate Tay's 1st birthday on Easter Sunday. Her birthday was actually the following Tuesday. All of Rob's family was able to come over for dinner, and my Mom and Dad were staying with us for the weekend...so we were all together! I'll mostly let the pictures do the talking...all I have to say is that we love this little girl and can't believe that a year has already flown by!!
Showing off a new dress from Aunt Jenna!
My family showing their enthusiasm!!











Lounging in her new chair!!

First major mess...and probably not the last!!

Rob was at Priesthood meeting and I was at home alone with Taylor. I heard her head for my bedroom and thought that I would go and grab her when I was done with the dishes...well...I'll let the pictures do the talking.





Needless to say...I was a few moments late! Oh and yes, it is lotion!!
