Ice Cream Man and Bar-B-Que

So, while I was in North Texas with Jordan, Matt introduced Taylor to the ice cream man...a few times! When she heard the music today, she wanted 'icees', so we grabbed money and the camera and ran for the ice cream! Matt also got a new toy...I see lots of bar-b-que in my future!

Another Road Trip

Jordan, Tyler, Joni, Mom, and I made a trip to North Texas to see Mimi and Papa Ed. We also got to see lots of other family! We all had a great time. The big kids, Taylor and Alex, stayed with their daddy's!! They had fun as well.

Taylor is Two!

Happy Birthday to my sweet Taylor! I can't imagine my life without her! She is so sweet, curious, loving, smart, and cute! She loves Caillou, Barney, coloring, playing with her baby doll, loving on her sister, swinging (not in love with the slide yet, but warming up to it), reading books, working puzzles, building towers, talking, eating cheeseburgers, mac n cheese, yogurt, waffles, goldfish, raisins, apples, grapes, and apple juice! She is so helpful around the house too! Give her a paper towel and she'll have everything 'cleaned', at least everything she can reach! We love her and are so proud of her! We started celebrating with cupcakes for breakfast, her request!! We Love you Taylor! Happy 2nd Birthday!

Bad Mommy!

I tried to sneak Taylor's blankie into the washing machine this afternoon...apparently I'm not very sneaky and she saw me this time! But, by the time she came into the laundry room to get it back, it was already in the washing process! She cried for about 30 minutes sitting by the washing machine watching it go in circles. So, I, being the very sympathetic Momma that I am, got my camera and took pictures! Needless to say, I'll be sneakier next time!

Road Trip

Taylor, Jordan and I took a road trip for Spring Break! We went to Midland with Nana and Papa to see Memaw and Pawpaw! While we were there we got to see cousins, aunts, and uncles! Both girls did fabulous in the car! Winnie the Pooh, or Ninnie Poos as Taylor calls it, and other movies helped make the trip go by fast! Papa could have used some ear plugs on the way home, but he tolerated the continuous talking from Taylor pretty well! I'm so glad we were able to make the trip!

The Zoo

Sunday we took Taylor and Jordan to the zoo! We met some friends there and had a really good time despite the large crowds! The weather was great! Jordan just slept most of the time! Taylor loved the lions, snakes, elephants, and flamingos! Lots of babies at the zoo...and the new giraffe exhibit is really neat, you get to be so close!

My Girls

The Tall Cans

David, Anna, and Boone were in town this past weekend for David's band to play a couple different venues! John and Linda had a party for the band on Saturday night! It was so much fun! Lots of friends/family and the weather was perfect! Taylor danced until she had blisters on her feet! The kiddos also played basketball and ate lots of food! So much fun for the cousins to get together!
