we had taylor's first birthday party today with mom, dad, grandma nezzie, aunt abbe and friends, ian, suzanna and samuel petersen. we had a great day... and here are some pictures of the party!

big bad teef

welp, we think taylor is getting more teeth. we had a sleepless night last night when she woke up screaming from 12AM-1:00AM. we saw a break in her upper gums this morning. we told her she better have a good reason for her fit in the night. so- my request is any good ideas for calming her during this painful time. we used to use the pickle... she doesn't really enjoy that anymore. that's about it from our end! hope you all are having a wonderful day! i know i am- listening to "all 90's" on the computer at work. yay backstreet boys!

check out this picture of taylor. please note the horses bottom on the bottom left hand corner.....

here are a few pictures from taylor's adventurous summer!

oh poop

well, last night, taylor and i hung out while joe and his brother-in-law and father went to a game. everything was going smooth and taylor was crawling around as usual. she crawled into the kitchen and became very quite- unsually quite.

so, i got up from my seat to check on her. what looked like vegetables (canned veggies-green) was on the floor..... nope, that's poop. and she was smearing it everywhere. she had pooped and it escaped from her diaper on to the floor. i picked her up and went to the bathroom to give her a bath. unfortunately, before i could stop her..... yep, she put her thumb in her mouth. it was SO gross and i felt like the christmas story when i washed her mouth out with soap!

just wanted to share my experience with you all! :)
