Taylor Time!

Taylor is our tough princess - that's really the best way to describe her. Every morning she wakes me up with no pajama's on, wearing one of her favorite dresses & ready to go for the day. She loves wearing dresses, not necessarily dress-up dresses, but just her regular church dresses. What a strange child. She really is my LOVE for life. She's so full of energy and excitement! I can honestly say that everyday is an adventure with her! She makes me smile & laugh even when I don't feel happy. I don't know what I would do without her!

This story makes we wonder what I am going to do with her sometimes, but after we got through it, we couldn't help but laugh:

The other day we were getting ready to go somewhere as a family, I don't remember where, but I do remember getting ready to leave. Speedy Jordan was already out the door with Bentley and waiting in the car for me and Taylor to join them. I was really trying to hurry and as I finished one of Taylor's ponytails I began to search for the other rubber band so I could finish ponytail #2. Holding Taylor's hair in one hand, searching with the other, while she was squirming and rubbing her nose I noticed something. She was really rubbing her nose.....A LOT! I thought to myself "No Way" but I looked anyway & there was the red rubber band shoved right up her nose. I tried to get it out, but no such luck. By this point Jordan was probably really wondering what was taking so long. I had to go out and get him because I needed his help with the problem child. Thanks to Jordan we had good news - we got it out! I just washed it off and finished her hair! I hope she doesn't do stuff like that again, but something tells me that I won't get that wish. Gotta love her!

A classic "Taylor" face - wearing one of her favorite dresses. She wasn't very happy with me for some reason.

Kids get everything these days. We went grocery shopping in style!

Taylor & her Daddy - Jordan took us out to dinner the other night and she wanted to go over & sit by him.

Taylor LOVES Spider-Man. We watch it everyday. She also likes to go in the backyard and pretend like she is Spider-Man. She'll try to climb the wall and says, "Spidey, Spidey."

Bentley & Taylor having fun together - as usual!

This is the outfit that she was wearing when she woke me up this morning. All her dresses were in the wash so she found one of her favorite shirts and made it a skirt. Creative - I'll give her that!

DINNERTIME.......

Lately at dinnertime Taylor starts to get VERY tired. She refuses to take a nap these days and she does pretty good until right around 6:00 pm. She hits her wall. Below are a few pictures of her in action, or should I say finally starting to run down for the day. We are still trying to get her to take naps so this doesn't happen, but I am still unsuccessful. She's just too busy for naps I guess.

Maybe she doesn't like my cooking and makes herself fall asleep. I don't know, but it sure doesn't look very comfortable. We don't leave her there very long.

One night she made it until right before dinner. She fell asleep watching Spider-Man 3....

....Trigger joined her.
