10 months

Double digits baby! Taylor continues to become more and more adventurous as she becomes an expert crawler/walker along furniture. She moves around this house so quickly that I think in the last month Mike and I have sat down for a total of one minute. The other morning we were all in the kitchen and Taylor crawled to the oven, grabbed the door handle, and lifted her feet off the floor, like she was doing a mini pull up! Even though the house is full of toys Taylor continues to have a fascination for things that aren't hers! Baby proofing is a constant project as we are amazed at the things she can get herself in to!

It has been really cute to see Taylor spend time with other children and become more and more social. She loves watching older kids play and as she warms up she wants to be right in the mix. She loves spending time with her cousins although I think they are slowly getting sick her of her pulling on them, hugging them, and trying to suck on them!

Taylor is developing a little sense of humor as she is starting to find things that does hysterical. She loves to make sure you have seen her when she accomplishes something and always claps at herself after she notices that you have seen her. She continues to work on her verbal skill/mouth noises and occasionally they are in context but for the most part they are random MaMa's, Da Da's, Ba Ba, and so one. Occasionally when I ask her a question she responds with a "yeah" but I think it is a fluke!

As I continue to say Taylor amazes us everyday... can't wait to see what the next month brings!

(we don't usually stand this close to the TV but I thought it was a special occassion!)

Spring??

While chasing Taylor away from Emma's bowls and dog toys has been a blast for the last several weeks...

We ALL needed to get out of the house and today was the perfect day! There was still some snow on the ground but it reached 50 degrees and sun was shinning. There is nothing more refreshing than a swing ride!

Snow baby

Today was the first real snow storm that we have had since Taylor has been born. I had to bundle her up and take her out to experience it. I tried to talk her into building a snowman but she was more intersted in just sitting and looking pretty... maybe next time.

Littlest Fan

I thought for the exciting occassion of the Eagles actually making it in to the playoffs I would buy Taylor her very own Westbrook jersey. At the time I was okay with the possibility that she may only get to wear this once however now I am feeling pretty confident that she will be sporting this on February 1st as well! Go Birds!
