Summer fun!

Taylor and daddy have been taking swim classes on Saturday mornings, which she LOVES! Here are a few pictures of our little fish in the water:







Today, we spent the day at the Children's Museum with Grandma Forst! We had a BLAST! Here are a few pictures of Taylor exploring:






And everyone had a good laugh watching mommy, Grandma Forst, and Aunt Kim compete in the Warrior Dash this year! It was a ton of fun, and we can't wait to try it again next year!

SOOO big!

Showing off my muscles!

I've got my purse, sunglasses, and Barbie car... ready to go shopping!

I LOVE shoes! Even if they are my daddy's!

Mommy cleaned out my closet! Look at all of the clothes that I've outgrown!

This is my pretend "angry" face! Mommy has been trying to capture this on camera since I started doing it!

18 Months Old!

Our little munchkin is now 18 months old, although sometimes we swear she is a teenager-in-training! :) She has developed such a personality and is QUITE the talker! She has begun stringing 2-4 words together into mini-sentences. She can also identify all of her basic colors, and her two favorite shapes - heart and star.
Some of her favorite phrases include:
"Dada/Mama/Nuk/Baby where are you?"
"Rain, rain, go away"
"Bye bye mama/dada/etc."
"Hi, big T!" (big truck)
"All done!"
"More milk please"
"Oh boy!" and "Oh man!"
"Good morning, ants!" (yes, we have ants at our front door)
"No night-night!" (not our favorite one!)
"Love you, mama/dada" (this one is our favorite!)

Here are some of Taylor's current likes and dislikes:

Taylor likes... Playing with her dolls, playing outside, being tickled, naps & night time, reading and being read to, Chicka Chicka Boom Boom (the book and the dvd), climbing, Barney, her crib, playing dress-up, throwing a ball, singing (especially "Rain Rain Go Away", the ABC song, and "I Love You" from Barney), dancing (particularly to "LaBamba"), eating fruit and breads (she's a carb girl), anything purple, ants, bunnies, birds, airplanes, spiders, dragging mommy and daddy while saying "please!" to show us something insignificant like an ant, coloring, milk, brushing her teeth

Taylor dislikes... Doctor visits, getting her nails clipped, being told "no", motorcycles, loud claps of thunder, being tired, nightmares, water bring poured on her head, getting her diaper changed, putting her pajamas on, cleaning behind her ears

Current stats:
Height: 33 inches (84%)

We are looking forward to a wonderful summer at home with our daughter!! We have signed her up for a toddler dance class, as well as a parent/tot swim class. I hope to keep this blog much more updated than I did during the school year! :)
