Trick or Treat!

Is she the cutest bunny you have ever seen??? We had a great Halloween night visiting Grampa & Bella and then heading over to Grams & Pappy G's house. Taylor was exhausted by the end of the evening...but surprisingly she didn't have a problem with her costume at all!

Happy Halloween!

Taylor went to visit Daddy at work and did a little bit of "trick or treating" during the day!

New Friends

We went over to Amy & Andy's last night, and I had to take a few pictures of Taylor next to Peyton. Of course, Taylor is almost 5 months old, and Peyton is only a month old, but to look at them next to each other is funny. We are looking forward to actual play dates together!

Like my belt??

Bella tried to "jazz" up Taylor's outfit by adding a nice, colorful scarf as a belt. What do you think??....is it too much??? G doesn't like pants on her, he doesn't like the way the elastic waist looks! :) He told me one day.... how would you like it if I got you a pair of pants like that and made you wear them! ( have to agree, I don't think I would like it)

Fall Walk

Taylor, Kitty & I got bundled up for a walk one morning last week. It was a beautiful, Fall day, but it was a little chilly. I thought she looked too cute, had to snap a picture. We have been trying to walk/jog a few times a week (we are in "training" for the Turkey Trot on Thanksgiving morning)!

Playtime!

Taylor is enjoying playtime now. It is great that she can "entertain" herself now (for like 10-15 minutes...). She loves looking at herself in the mirror and makes all kinds of funny talking sounds.

Welcome Baby Peyton!

Peyton Leigh decided to join us a little earlier than expected (3 1/2 weeks early!). She is doing well and will hopefully be home with Amy & Andy this weekend. She looks great, 5 lbs. 8oz! Amy is also doing great and we are already thinking of Halloween costumes for Taylor & Peyton! Taylor can not wait to meet her newest friend!!

Baby Price!

While we were in Va. Beach, we were able to meet Price James, who was born Sept.19. (only 1 week old!!) Proud parents are Kari & Ron. It was so great to see the happy family, and let them meet Taylor also. I got to hold Price...he seems so much smaller than Taylor, but he was only 2 ounces smaller.... Taylor also enjoyed his comfy swing, she really enjoyed it, I see our next purchase in the near future! Congratulations Kari & Ron!!

Trip to Virginia Beach!

Taylor's first beach trip! We headed to Virginia Beach for the weekend. G's family goes every year at the same time to enjoy Neptune Festival, a big festival with music, lots of vendors & art on the boardwalk. After a big rain Saturday a.m., the weather turned beautiful! So sunny she needed her shades! She did great for her first road trip (longer than an hour)...slept the whole way (both ways)! (the other picture) Taylor's cousin, Holland and a friend of the family, Dane are all hanging out. We had a great time with Grams & Pappy G and all of the aunt, uncles and friends that were there, also got to visit our friends, Kari & Ron and their new addition, Price! (you will see the cute pictures above)

Visit with Tia (Brett)!

Here are some fun pictures while Mom, Taylor & I are visiting with Brett the other Wednesday. We had fun just hanging out, eating Crozet Pizza & spending time with Brett. She hadn't seen Taylor for almost 3 weeks and couldn't get over how big she had gotten. So of course we had to have a little fashion show & Taylor broke her Tia in with a MAJOR diaper change...that's my girl!!

Where's my thumb???

Taylor has been trying to find her thumb for a while now, and I caught her as she sucked it for a few minutes while in Bella's arms, but then lost interest. I am secretly hoping she will find it soon...these pacifiers are hard to keep up with! GW came home from his fishing trip & Taylor was so funny just looking at him all night, like I know you, but I haven't seen you for a while?? But by morning she was all smiles & flirting with Daddy again!

Picnic time!

We had the Moore's Family Picnic this weekend & it was a beautiful day! It actually got very sunny and warm, and I forgot a hat, so Taylor sported the burp cloth for a little while...way to go mom!

Eric, Taylor & Mallory

Visit from Uncle Eric & Mallory

Last weekend, Eric came in from "NOVA" and he & Mallory came over to hang out. (G left for his annual fising trip to Co. today). Taylor got to have her fist La Carreta experience...and as you can see she is stuffed!!

Another Soiree Meeting!

Taylor has attended multiple Soiree meetings, since she was in my belly, to now where she is either on Stephanie's (Ne-Ne) lap or in her bouncy seat, but today she was especially talkative! Everytime Stephanie & I would start talking, she would chime in, it was really funny.

Labor Day Visitors!

On Labor Day, Laura & Greg were able to swing by on their way back to Arlington from the lake and we all got to meet Colton & Sulley for the first time! Having 3 babies in the house that are about the same age (the twins were born about 8 wks. before Taylor) was fun!!

Taylor & Brylan

Beth Anne, a friend of mine from RE/MAX, has a 6 month old (Brylan) and she has been keeping Taylor about once a week, when I have Soiree or MK appts. Taylor loves it because she gets to relax in the comfy papason (that vibrates) while Brylan is crawling around her, occasionally giving her kisses on her toes or love pats!

Amy's Baby Shower!

Taylor & I went to Amy's baby shower on 8/31. Peyton Leigh is due to arrive on October 23, and we are looking forward to she & Taylor getting to know each other and many, many play dates!

Taylor & Katie finally get to meet!

Katie was finally able to get into town and meet Taylor! She now lives in Greenbackville, and can't get into Lynchburg quite as often.

Happy Baby!

Just another cute photo of Taylor :)

Taylor & Mommy

A few quick pics of Mommy & Taylor....

Hanging with Daddy!

Taylor & Daddy just relaxing in the BIG chair!

Book Club!

Taylor & Denise (aka Niecy) at our Friday a.m. Book Club at Panera Bread! A few Mary Kay ladies, Bella & I get together and discuss a book...and Taylor and how much she has grown since the last week!

Exhausted!

After a fun day of partying at Tia's (Brett) & Uncle Shaun's in Crozet for Mom's birthday, Taylor is exhausted! Once we got home, she ate and then was so tired, she couldn't even sit up in the Boppy!

Bath Time

This picture is older, but I think it is too cute!! Bath time now is fun, she is really good, normally she doesn't cry a lot & she is really funny when she shivers, and her bottom lip starts shaking! This is before the rolls showed up, we are still a little skinny here. (July 2008)

Heading to church!

This is Taylor's first time going to church. She did great until it was time for the quiet stuff, scripture, sermon, etc. So we enjoyed everything from the lobby, luckily they have a t.v. and chairs in the lobby where we can see everything going on in the sanctuary!

Love my slippers!

Thanks Aunt Linda & Uncle Doug....Taylor likes her slippers, eventhough she will not keep them on for longer than a few minutes!

Happy 4th of July!!

New at this!

Okay, I have no idea what I am doing...so don't be too critical with the blog (initially)! I wanted to be able to keep everyone up to date on Taylor. She is growing so fast!!
