Long Time No Posting!

I have been bad lately about updating my blog. Well, of course there was the problems with the computer, but Brody fixed those a while ago. I guess I just have been a slacker. Taylor has been doing so much though since my last post about her. This month she started to pull herself across the floor with her arms and pushing with one back leg. I wondered if she would ever do anything other than roll all over the place! She is getting faster too now and getting into things at her level, other than her toys, so I need to start baby proofing better than I have. She is so silly and fun though. Brody and I can't get enough of her. We love to tickle her and play with her on the floor. Lately her favorite things to do are: chase pepper (the cat) around- except she doesn't move very fast yet; crawl across the wood floor to the sliding door blinds and pull on them; drink juice or water from her sippy cup; be tossed in the air by daddy- of course just barely out of his arms; bath time where she chews on rubber ducky and slashes mommy; and then there's her own playtime with her toys, which she seems very uninterested in half the time. So here are a few pictures in the last while that are my favorite.
This picture is so funny!














This is our cat Pepper. He loves to sleep with us!

Tay with Grandma Jo and.................Grandma Kris

Taylor with all her cousins on my side of the family- except the newest- Ellie. It was quite hard to get this picture. Most the kids were cooperating, except Ethan on the right. Sorry bud! Taylor threw up right as I took this picture we found out too.














Taylor loves to eat grass. I think that's what made her throw up!

This is Ellie with her Aunt Annie. So precious! My sister Jen had Ellie just over a month ago.


Here is a picture of our home. We love it so much! Man I can't wait to have a yard again.

This is a view just to the north of our house towards Honeyville and another view from our neighborhood of the mountains. Yes there are a lot of horses around. Love It!!!


On another note we had a fun Father's Day on Sunday. Saturday I wanted to take Brody on a surprise overnight date so first we took Taylor to Jo and Ted's house in Willard, then we went to Maddox for Dinner. Brody has been wanting to take me golfing for a long time so I decided I would surprise him by bringing his golf clubs and we hit a bucket of balls at the Brigham City Golf Course. It was fun! I am getting into golf a little more these days. After that we took a drive above Mantua and then we went and stayed at Sherwood Hills for the night. I really had a lot of fun and it was good for Brody and I to get away. I wish I had taken pictures. I am finding these days I am taking more video than pictures then I am always wishing I had taken more pictures. So often I just don't think of it until the moments have passed. I think I am getting better though.
Anyway, this was a long post. I will end it now.

What a beautiful home you have! I love it. I can't wait to have a big house one day, but that is a ways off so I will just enjoy what I have. Taylor is so cute and she is getting so BIG! Babies grow up way too fast. I'm glad you are back to posting. I love Twilight, too! I hope you end up being a Jacob fan.
