Treasured Traditions

Every morning for the last 2 weeks I have let Taylor help me unload the dishwasher. She is always so excited. Before I would be too caught up in hurrying to get it done so we could get to something new, but then I realized I was missing an opportunity to teach her the importance of working together. It may take us double the time because she takes each thing one by one and hands it to me to put it away.but it has started to be our little tradition in the morning and it is one I look forward too. I love being a mother and each day I gain a greater appreciation for my mom and all she taught me. She is the best!!!

Fun times with my Dad!!

Taylor just adores her Dad just as I do. She loves spending anytime she can get with him and she is always so glad when Daddy comes home from school. I love watching them spend time together. Family is such a treasure.

A sticky thank you

Sorry this is late but a big thank you to Grandma, Grandpa, and Aunt Sarah for the Valentine. Taylor loved getting mail and as you can see loved the sucker!!

Working hard for Daddy

Taylor had so much fun making her Valentine for her Daddy. She loves to color. Crayons are fun but she loves markers more. She got a lot on her hand and all day she walked around showing me her hand saying UH-OH!! Jaman loved it!! Hope everyone had a Happy Valentine's Day!!

Mom and Me at Bump City

Yesterday was Mom and Me Group. A big group of moms and there little ones meet every first Thursday of the month and go somewhere fun. Yesterday was at Bump City a big indoor play area. With climbing, slides, foam pits, and mazes. Taylor loved it!!! It is always so fun to spend the day with her outside the home and watch her experience something new!!

Best Friends

This is Taylor's great friend Jocelyn. She lives about 10 giant steps away from us and they get to have lots of play dates. They are only 2 days apart so it makes a great play mate. Sara her mom is also a great friend so that makes it all the better.

Horray for Bump City

She isn't happy to be here!!

A rookie blogger

Well girls I have finally given in. I think I am about the last here in the complex to get this done. I won't be able to keep up with all your wonderful blogs but at least family and friends can keep up with us.

CHEESE!!!!!!

I had been out shopping and stopped to pic up KFC for a quick dinner. Taylor went to town and loved every last bite...or wait did she get any or is it all on her face. Good times. We all good laughs and she enjoyed every bit of attention. Her dad also did her hair that day :)

A new wagon but too much snow!!

It was snowing really hard this day and we had just bought Taylor this wagon. She loves it and I think Jaman and I spent the whole day pulling her around in the house and playing with her in her Dora Tent. Isn't life so simple being a kid and then we have to grow up and have responsibility.

Baking a treat for Daddy!!

Taylor was in heaven when I gave her the beaters. You would never guess this was a first time getting that chance. After her hard work of making oreo cookies she had to get some kind of reward. She loves every chance she gets to cook with me. We make a great team!!!
