Snow Day. April 15, 2015

Yesterday, we were finally home during a snow storm in Utah.  We seemed to miss the couple that happened this year.  JJ loved watching the snow fall all day.  He made a comment "good things we didn't plant our seeds" as we looked out the window.  I had soil delivered for our garden the day before.

We got out and played when daddy got home from work.





Today the sun is shining and the sky is blue.  I am sure we will be out to enjoy the snow before it is gone.


Taylor...almost 20 Months

Taylor is doing great, she is almost 20 months.  She is growing above average, especially for being premature.

She began walking right after Christmas and has not stopped.

She loves to organize and sort everything.

Her first words started as Dada, Mama, Banana, Lanie & JJ.

Now she loves to say "no, no" and shake her finger at the dog. She says "up mama" when she wants to be carried. And she repeats everything.....EVERYTHING! Her newest phrase is "I'm hungry", which she says all day.

Taylor loves to use a fork while eating and carry a bowl around the house.

She likes to help her dad load the dishwasher.

She eats everything.  If she doesn't want something today, that doesn't mean she won't try it tomorrow.

In the morning, she loves to go to her closet and pretend she is picking out what to wear. She loves getting dressed and will bring you her shoes when it is time to leave.

She loves helping with laundry.  If you leave the doors open on the washer or dryer, she will close them behind you.

We are currently transitioning to one nap a day and it is making me very sad.

She loves reading books. Usually the one her brother wants to read.

Taylor loves swinging in the swing.  She has a permanent smile.

She cries when we have to come in from playing outside.

JJ and Taylor laugh everyday together.  He loves to take her toy and then she chases him.  Never a dull moment at our house.

Some recent pictures of Miss Taylor.

She loves playing outside.



She likes to pretend to take selfies. Funny thing is that I don't do a lot of selfies, so I am not sure where she is learning this from.


Eating kale chips.  She would eat the whole batch if I let her.  I told you, she will eat anything.





Have a great week!

We did decorate before we left our house.  (didn't happen the year before)
