St. Patricks Day

Happy St. Patrick's Day!






Taylan and I went to dinner on St. Patrick's day with some of mommy's good friends from KSU. Taylan was funny at dinner. I tried to get a photo of him, but he's too fast and my camera is too slow. But he kept putting his hands on his head and putting his head down on the table.



And our day ends with smiles! My Little McCutie!

Celtics vs Bulls

Daddy and his friend,Tom got to go to the Celtics vs Bulls game this year courtsey of his good friend Mr. Brown. The Celtics lost but Daddy had a good time supporting his team!



The day of the game, Dave couldn't wait to put Taylan in his Celtics warm-up suit that our good friend's the Bearce's gave us. I wasn't sure where it was but he knew exactly where it was and had it already pulled out and ready to go.



The last time Taylan wore this was the day we brought him home from the hospital:





All the Celtics hype really made him tired. Plus Taylan needed a good nap so he could go have dinner with Mommy and her friends.

9 Months and Growing

How we did we get so lucky? I think this month Taylan will be walking. He is getting really daring and lets go more often than not. It's a lot of fun....until he falls and cries. No. He usually just giggles and gets back up. We are starting him on more and more real people food. He's not so fond of it but I get a pretty good laugh at his face. At his 9 month appointment Taylan had the doctor laughing. When Dr. King was feeling his belly, Taylan was laughing so hard, the doctor started laughing. It was funny. Before the doctor left the room, he said he needed one more laugh and tickled him some more. Lately Taylan has had me laughing so hard, I get tears in my eyes. Oh.... I Love it!

ROAD TRIP!

Last weekend Grandma and Grandpa Butler came to pick us up and we took a road trip to see Uncle Jason and Aunt Lisa in Des Monies, Iowa. I got my new car seat and it was a fun ride, even if I did get a little restless. Uncle Jason and Aunt Lisa got baptised on Sunday and then we all went to lunch and then it was back in the car to go home. Short trip but we love to spend time with Uncle Jason and Aunt Lisa.

I Love Daddy!

Brusha Brusha Brusha

8 1/2 months old and Taylan has 4 teeth all the way in and 2 teeth that have just poked through the skin. I thought it was time to start good dental hygiene so I got him a little infant toothbrush. He liked it! He was so cute. He cried when I took it from him. I hope this love of the toothbrush lasts through his toddler years!

Toy Shelves

Taylan has a toy box. He has toys all over the place. But he LOVES these shelves in our living room so we put more toys on his shelves.

My Boy

Perfect Picture of True Love.

Bitter Biscuit

First Time Mom for sure. This is me giving Taylan a bitter biscuit for the first time.....without a bib. Yeah... not a bright idea. But look how much fun he had. Bath time was fun that night.

Trail Run

We had a beautiful day in the middle of February. So we hooked Taylan up in his new ride. We had a trial run in our living room. Dad loves to push him around and Taylan ate it all up! I'm so excited for it to be nice all the time so we can go out more. He loved it!!

8 Months Old

These month photos are getting harder and harder to take. Taylan is not really fond of sitting still and doesn't quite understand "sit still so Mommy can take your picture." But I will say these photos give him character! At 8 months old, Taylan ....as you can see... loves to stand up. This has been another fun month for us. Every day is just a new joy in our lives.
