Taylor listening to herself (February)

This one is funny- its one of the first times Taylor started to hear herself talking. We were at a Superbowl party in Houston with our good friends Callie and Chris...so I'm sure she felt the need to compete for attention!

This a picture I snapped of Mom with Aunt Betty Lou and Uncle Tom the last time I was there visiting. I just liked it...I promised them no more pics on the internet without warning...so sorry. It just reminded me of summertime with the colors and everything. I had to post it.

mom and baby

This one was taken right after my mom got hit with a bicycle on the beach. The beach was EMPTY and there was plenty of room but the girl plowed right into my mom, knocking her clear across the sand- and my VERY expensive camera went crashing to the ground. I know she got hurt a little but we both were laughing hysterically. I basically had to post it for mom- so we can always remember and have a good laugh about that moment.

She is the spitting image of her daddy

I'm not sure why the quality is funny but I thought it was a cute video...of course I did! They are all cute...not that I'm biased or anything :)

So I'm having one of those days...and yes I'm going to vent on this blog- I'm wondering where all my time goes? I don't have a job outside my home, I don't volunteer for anything, I have some friends but I'm not a social butterfly....I'm not working out "really", not currently in a bible study or anything like that. YET...I feel like I have NO TIME..and there's so much to be done. I need to do the laundry, need to do a grocery list, need to clean out cars, rooms, closets, bathe dogs, shape up, cook, photo albums....update blogs and keep up with friends and family. BUT I cannot find enough time in my day????What is wrong with me? At what stage does my "Inner Martha Stewart" (as my friend Callie says)come out?
All I want to do all day is stare at Taylor Grace and make her laugh. My days consist of making high pitched noises, silly faces, and peek-a-boo tricks just to get a giggle. My day is consumed with her and dont get me wrong, I LOVE IT! There is nothing I'd rather be doing all day. I just am amazed that I can neglect all the things that "need to be done" and just be with her. I feel like its the right thing to do, I know in my heart its right. I mean she's growing so fast and I'll never have this time back! But sometimes I think how in the world can I function when I have more than one child, or one more than that.....and so on and so on. Maybe its a new mom thing or maybe I'm just weird but I just wanna say I've noticed it .

Hungry girl

We used to call Taylor Grace " our little shark" when she was hungry. She used to make all these sweet little baby grunts and noises to let us know she was ready to eat. Well , things have changed ALOT around here. This was a major sign she was ready for solids. She's been on solids about 3 weeks. But she is a hungry girl thats for sure!
