A few more...

Little Model

Our wonderful photographer friend, Danielle came over on Monday and took some beautiful pictures of Taylor. It was so nice to have her here because we took all the pictures in her bedroom where she was very comfortable. Taylor loved Danielle (and the camera) and smiled at her most of the time. I have only seen a few of the pictures so far but these are two of my favorites. I will post more soon.

Modeling can be a tough job!

Taylor's Baptism

Taylor's Baptism was on Sunday... I had no idea how nervous I would be! All I could think about was Taylor screaming throughout her whole "moment" and how loud her screams would be echoing throughout the church! We spent a lot of time planning and preparing for the lunch at our house afterwards so I didn't have too much time to think about the actual baptism. Well, Sunday morning came and Taylor woke up on the wrong side of the bed, screaming and not wanting to eat. I thought for sure that we were in for it and my biggest fears were about to come true. My mom spent the entire car ride to the church telling me how I screamed throughout my baptism and not to worry about it...I still worried!

Well, I am happy to say that Taylor did wonderfully and seemed to love being in her beautiful white dress and having all the attention. She flashed plenty of smiles to everyone that looked her way. It really was a great day... and a great father's day!

Happy Father's Day

Look... I have hands

Taylor is starting to try to reach for things and use her hands more intentionally. We starting noticing this when she sits in her bouncy seat and reaches for the bears that are in front of her. At first Mike and I thought it was accidental when she would swing her arms and hit them but last night we were certain that she was trying to reach for them... then we laughed at the types of dinner conversations that we now have!

She has noticed Emma and will now reach for her face. Emma thinks it is great because for the last two months she has not been allowed to lick Taylor but now it is hard to say no when Taylor basically sticks her hands in Emma's mouth!

Getting Stronger

Taylor has been getting stronger everyday. She used to fall asleep as soon as she would lay on her belly but now she lifts her head and looks around.

Who doesn't love a good nap after such a hard workout?

Playdates

We had lunch and a playdate with Ashlynne and Nolan this week. Taylor loves to lay on her back, kick her legs, punch her arms, and watch whatever is going on around her... Nolan was the perfect entertainment! Wouldn't these just be the cutest pictures to display at their wedding... it is just a thought!

Later that day Aunt Jen and Uncle Dave ran over (yes, they ran) and played with Taylor. She loved it and we are so happy that they live so close and can spend time with her!
