Rollie Pollie

Taylor rolled over for her first time last night and did it again twice today! I thought she would never roll over. She always hated being on her tummy but now that she can roll herself over it is not as bad I guess. It was so fun when she did it last night. I was at my mom's house and we were playing with her on the floor... Then she just did it! I did not have to help her at all. Oh, some more fun news. I was asked to be in the Young Womens again today. I was going to have fun I am sure as the sports director but I guess thats not the place for me right now. The young women are my favorite. I have missed it. The President called me to be the Secretary. I was just glad it wasn't the President again! Well, that's all the news for now.

Messy Girls

Starting Taylor on Solid Foods is harder than I thought. She has not been too fond of cereal so this week I thought we would try out some vegetables or Fruits. I gave her carrots the other day, not realizing that once I start giving her those colorful foods I would be saying goodbye to one outfit per day with all the orange spit up and diapers. So... I think I will stick to applesauce and other white foods for a while- hopefully she will stop spitting up so much soon. I had no idea that babies could have such massive and dangerously smelly blow outs!!! It is comical I am sure if you could watch me changing those diapers and outfits covered in poop. Got any advice???
Well enough about that. Brody is out of town this weekend- since Valentines Day- and will not be back until Monday. He and his brother and Dad went up to Island Park to snowmobile. I am bummed. I want to go on vacation. Again, can't wait till spring! Oh well. I miss him though and don't like being home alone ALL DAY and ALL NIGHT long. What am I saying... I have Taylor and Ginger and Pepper! I am going shopping tomorrow though with my mom and sisters for my B-day last week! Taylor loves going shopping with me. She loves getting out of the house too I am sure.
I have to post this picture of Taylor and Pepper. They are both watching TV- it was so funny!
Ginger and Pepper are so good with Taylor. Still a little unsure, especially when she cries, but they are getting used to her. Hopefully when Taylor can walk and chase them around they will still let her be close to them.

Success- “To laugh often and love much; to win the respect of intelligent persons and the affection of children; to earn the approbation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty; to find the best in others; to give of one’s self; to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; to have played and laughed with enthusiasm and sung with exaltation; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived- this is to have succeeded!”

-Ralph Waldo Emerson

Holy Snow!

This is in front of our house. You can barely even see our truck! All this snow is so amazing! I want to go skiing so so bad. Powder Mountain has gotten 96" in the last seven days. WOW! It really is awesome that we are getting so much needed moisture. Still, I am excited for spring!
Brody was outside snow blowing for about 4 hours. He helped about nine of our neighbors with their snow. What a Guy! Then we went out to Brody's parents for the Super Bowl. Yippee! I never really pay attention to any of the game, just the commercials. My favorite was the tire one with the animals screaming. Little Taylor was so funny. She fell asleep while she was sitting on my lap being burped. She could not hold her eyes open. It was pretty funny.
