Taylor turned 2 on Sunday! It was very exciting and kind of sad at the same time. I can't believe  our little girl is TWO!

This is Taylor 11/29/2007on her BIRTHday:

This was Taylor 11/29/2008 at One Year Old!:

And this is Taylor 11/29/2009 at 2 years old!

We had such a great time for Taylor's birthday! Morris got up and made her pancakes, which she loves! We went to church then had lunch back at our house with MamaZan and Papaw. We made her a little cake and let her blow out her candles.

She loved her cake and ice cream!

Then we opened her presents. She got lots of new P.J.s, cute outfits, 2 pairs of shoes, a Toy Story bowling game, books and stuffed animals and Brand New Red Wagon!

We spent the rest of the day outside in the wagon!

Our Bug!

Pumpkin Patch Pictures

Just a few of the favorites.

TEE TEE IN POTTY!

Every time I hear that phrase I sing the song from Look Who's Talking Two! Crazy I know!
Well Last night I had good reason to sing! We were getting Taylor ready for a bath and she pointed to the potty and said "potty". I assumed she was stating the obvious but still asked if she needed to potty. She said "Aight". So i stripped her down and put her on it. I turned to get a towel and heard "Mommy". I looked to see my baby half on the potty and a little tee tee in the potty and little out! I was so excited! She went TEE TEE IN THE POTTY!!! So exciting! So we Cheered and Danced and Laughed and even called and left MamaZan a message about it. So hopefully all that hype will make her want to do it again! :)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MORRIS!!!!!

Dinner at Cheesecake Factory! A wonderful night together!

I love you!

October

We started October off with a bang! First my birthday on the 6th! We had a family party on the Fourth at Aunt Sharons which was a lot of fun! On my actual birthday Morris got up at like 4:45am to make me waffles before work! Then Mom and Dad watched Taylor so Morris could take me to a relaxing dinner at P.F. Changs! It was a great day!

We are also looking forward to the Fall Festival at Crossbridge! It was so much fun last year and I know this year will be better! I can't wait to see Taylor in her costume! Check back later for more pictures as the Month goes by.

Having Fun!!

I just wanted to post a few of Taylor's Quarky pictures. Enjoy....

Loves the umbrella even when it is not raining!





New favorite past time!!!


She loves her daddy!

Puddle Time!

So with all the rain we decided to let Taylor cut loose in a puddle on our street. She started in some of the small ones but finally found the biggest one and decided to spend some time there. Here are some pictures.


Not real sure about getting in the Puddle:

But sitting in some water was no problem! Dirty booty!

Dadda!!! Airplane!!!!

She threw the rock in and then wanted it back!

Finally decided to get in!

Back out but splashing for Daddy!


Back in and splashing!

Having a BLAST!!!



Kisses for Daddy!

Running at me to share the love! I will take it!

Home Sweet Home!!!

They say Home is where the Heart is, Well my heart was clearly in my body when I was in Atlanta but my home is here! LOL! I am so glad to be home. I missed Morris and Taylor so much! Being gone for 4 days and 3 nights was rough! Taylor's face when I went to pick her up from school yesterday was priceless! I think Daddy was pretty happy to have me home too!

On another note, The Audit went good. I had a good time with my coworker and learned so much from her. It was a good growing experience for me.

GLAD TO BE HOME!!!

Two Steps Forward One Step Back

Ok so it has been a week or so since I posted last and it seems like so much has happened.

Well, some of the more exciting news for us is that we finally have some furniture in our house! My parents bought a used dining room suite, so naturally Morris and I inherited their old set. The set includes a table, six chairs, a buffet server and a china cabinet. It has been in our family for many years and it has that antique feel about it. I think it looks nice in our dinning room and it will be fun when we can get our china in there.

Also, we finally replaced our bed! We have been talking about doing if for over a year now but never did. We saved up the money and got a great deal! We upgraded from a queen to a king, which is real nice! We have slept on it for a few nights now and love it! About 4 years ago I found a bedding set that I really liked so I started stalking it on Ebay. I was able to get the whole thing for a killer deal, but I planned ahead and got the King set. Also, my wonderful Aunt Susie and cousin Stacey bought us the King sized down comfortor for our wedding 3 and half years ago. So we are finally able to use it. Now I would like to have Curtains made to match. One of these days =)

On a sad note I would like to say farewell to Dan Baxter. Thank you Dan for the impact you made on Morris and I! Not only did you Influence us greatly in our Financial life but you helped bring us so much closer to God! We love you greatly and will miss you so much! Your family is in our hearts and prayers!
I can only imagine, What it will be like, When I walk By your side,
I can only imagine, What my eyes will see, When your face Is before me
I can only imagine I can only imagine
Surrounded by Your glory, what will my heart feel
Will I dance for you Jesus or in awe of you be still
Will I stand in your presence or to my knees will I fall
Will I sing hallelujah, will I be able to speak at all
I can only imagine I can only imagine
I can only imagine When that day comes And I find myself Standing in the Son
I can only imagine When all I will do Is forever Forever worship You
I can only imagine I can only imagine I can only imagine
When all I will do Is forever, forever worship youI can only imagine

No More Tubes!

This morning Taylor started messing with her right ear...tugging on it and crying about it. I gave her motrin and we got her to the dr at 7:45. Our Dr was out so we saw Dr. Stone....very nice man. He looked into the Left ear and said there was too much wax to see her drum...so he cleaned it out. In the processes of cleaning he found the loose tube and pulled it out. He said her Left ear looked great. Then he looked at the right side and did the same thing. The right ear looked great. No ear infection!!! He also mentioned that she might be getting her back molars...explains why she cried when I tried to brush her back teeth! Glad to know she is most likely just teething! She is such a Drama Queen! LOL!

By the way....we kept the tubes! =)

PooPoo in the Potty!!!

Last night Taylor actually told me she needed to go PooPoo and she wanted to go in the Potty! So we put her on the potty and She actually did it! I can officially say we don't have any attachment issues b/c she was all about telling it Bye Bye as it went down!! LOL!!!
Baby Steps!!
