Granny & Rachel

We had a great visit to Paris, TX to visit Granny for her birthday. We got to spend some time with Aunts, Uncles, and our cousin Kaylee. Happy Birthday Granny!

Non-toxic and washable?!?!

I don't think you fully appreciate Crayola's efforts until it is your table being colored on and your child who decides the black paint tastes best! This was Taylor's first painting experience and she had lots of fun making her masterpiece.

Paper Dolls

Taylor basically has the best Daddy ever. Here's what I caught him doing the other morning...cutting out paper dolls for Taylor to play with! How sweet is that? He went online to Noggin's website and found a dress up area for "Max & Ruby" (one of Tay's fav shows). He even went so far as to laminate the pieces so that she couldn't tear them up. Now she's been having fun putting the princess outfit on "Ruby rwabbit".

Model Baby

So, Taylor has decided she likes the camera and likes to take "pick-cheese". Here's some of her hamming it up for her mommy paparazzi.

I'm OK!

I was feeling a little under the weather but I'm getting better. I had a very exciting couple of days. I got to see lots of doctors on Saturday. When I woke up, I had what the doctors called an "impressive" rash so Mommy and Daddy took me to the after hours clinic to get me checked out. I went home and took a nap but when I woke up again I had lips bigger than Angelina Jolie!! (This was confirmed by several nurses and doctors.) So I went to the ER and met some really nice people. Then they told MommyDaddy that I couldn't go home, but I couldn't stay there either. So, I got to ride in an Ambulance with Mommy to Texas Children's Hospital in downtown Houston. They wanted to watch me and make sure I didn't have Kawasaki's disease. We had a really long night and lots of people looked at me but they finally decided that I could go home after all. Here's some pictures of me with my new doctor skills I learned. Thank you to everyone for checking on me and saying prayers for me.

May pictures

I thought I would post some pictures of Taylor from this month. I know I've been a little behind (and off topic) lately!! Enjoy the cute pics of Tay and her funny faces.

Blog Ring

So, I wanted to get some feedback about what you think of a Blog Ring. Basically, you join the "ring" and then everyone who is on the same ring can hit a "next" button and go the the next person on the ring's blog. I find myself always checking out our friends' blogs but then I sometimes have to go back to my blog to click on the link for another blog. Does any of this make sense??
So, RingSurf is a company that hosts Rings where you can create your own ring and monitor and accept only those members that you want on your ring. (so random people couldn't just join our ring!) I've already created a ring to try it out so if you want to join it do the following:
Click on "Magnolia" over on the right. (Right above "Powered by Ringsurf") This will take you to the Ringsurf page. Scroll down just a bit and click on join this ring. You'll have to add a "Page Element" to your blog and paste the code that Ringsurf provides in the HTML/Javascript area of your page element so that the Banner will show up. Then when I approve you as a member our blogs will be linked through the ring and if all of our friends are on there we can see all the blogs quickly.
Okay, so if you think this is a dumb idea or way to much work just let me know and I will abandon it. Just thought it was worth a try. Also, if I haven't explained this enough give me a call!
