Taylor Time

3 Year Well-Child Visit Taylor had fun learning about going to the doctor. Obviously she's been MANY times, but she's old enough now to comprehend and analyze what is going on. She gets very serious, holds very still, and does a great job. We learned that Taylor is now 3'4.5" tall (97th percentile) and she weighs 34lbs 6oz (80th percentile). Thank you Lord for such a healthy, strong girl! Such answered prayers!

Several nights ago our neighbor, Xenia, came over to hang out with me and the girls. Taylor and Xenia were working on spelling/writing their names. Xenia had written Taylor's name for her (in purple) and then we all went downstairs. Awhile later Taylor called to us to come look at her name. When we got up there this is what we saw! Taylor wrote her name (in green). I was so impressed! We've been working on letters a little bit, but usually she only writes the T and the A.

We Have Another Walker in the House She is still perfecting the art - working on going from sitting to standing to walking, but as of August 10th if she is standing she can walk where ever she wants. She had been taking steps here and there since the end of July, but now it's official and here is the video to prove it.

Brian and Susanne August 8th 2009 Brian, Kevin's brother, got married August 8th. Taylor was the flower girl and she did a fantastic job! Taylor's dress was BEAUTIFUL!!!!!

Ken) Ken, Marilyn, Susanne, and Brian Uncle Brian and Taylor Getting Taylor's hair ready for her big walk down the aisle. Taylor did so well! She dropped one petal at a time all the way down the aisle. She wanted to stay up front with daddy, but soon gave in and sat down with mom. I held her for about two minutes and then she crashed in my arms and slept through the entire ceremony! It was so precious and very unlike Taylor. The head table at Hotel Murano. This picture doesn't capture all the beauty, but the reception was stunning! Taylor's best friends - Emily and Brooke. They LIVED on the dance floor.

Taylor's Princess Party Many months ago Taylor began asking for a princess birthday party. Today her wish came true! When I discovered a lady from our church runs her own princess business I couldn't resist hiring a real Cinderella to come to Taylor's party. Cinderella was a huge hit (for the kids and parents!). Our little princess who is 3 years old!!! She chose a beautiful Snow White costume for her party. So cute! Beautiful Princesses Our sweet girl... we love you so much Taylor! The arrival of Cinderella - she was swarmed at the door! =) Everyone got their face painted. The royalty had fainting lessons - a little drama is perfect for Taylor! Dancing with Cinderella was one of the activities Taylor was so excited for. Cinderella taught the kids how to Waltz (step, tip-toe, step, tip-toe). It was so cute watching Zachariah dance with the girls! Make a wish... Ribbon Dancing with Cinderella
