Dougie (thats what Taylor calls Grandpa Webb)


I LOVE LOVE LOVE this picture!
We don't get to see Grandpa and Grandma Webb very much so I am taking this opportunity and getting as many pictures as I can! They are hanging out watching the BYU vs OSU game!

COOKIES

MM MM GOOD!

FHE!!! So fun. Thanks guys for helping decorate the cookies. I know Nick REALLY appreciated it! (wink wink for those of you who don't know Nick hates frosting cookies!)

Hard at work


We even put the kids to work! Good job guys!

I think that they ate more than they frosted!

The card!





We are all doing great! 2009 Was quiet a year! Taylor is getting so big!!! She is the joy of our lives and has made life all worth while. She keeps doing new things everyday! It gets hard for us to keep up with her. Nick is doing very well at his job. He has done a great job taking care of all of us! Taylor and Nick are 2 peas in a pod. When they get together they have a good time and it is so fun to watch. Tori is keeping busy at home. She has taken up sewing and baby crafts as her new pastime so that and Tater bug keep her plenty busy. We have so many things to be thankful for and have been truly blessed this year! All in all we are all happy and ready to enjoy this Holiday season!

Fla rah rah rah rah, rah rah rah rah!

Her room isn't done....NOT EVEN CLOSE but I have painted a bit and this is just a little of what has been done in her room. (she loves birds that is why I put them up and if you look really close each bird has a letter of the alphabet in it so it is the ABC bird tree) And if you haven't figured it out we went with circles as a base because her bedding has dots all over it, hence the big round leaves and the circled flowers.

Signs of affection!

Her Favorite is probably her MICKEY MOUSE!!! She loves Mickey and Tinkerbell!


Okay so I walked in the other day and I found her like this so I ran and got my camera and thank goodness she didn't change a thing so I got a pretty good picture of her and her buddies.

Our cute little house in our attempts to be festive!

Rocking around the Christmas Tree

This is our pretty tree!! Our living room is that burnt orange-brown and green color so we try to keep with the theme! I love getting the sparkly decorations so when we light it up at night it really LIGHTS up.


Closer view just because.


My 2 helpers!!



What a good job. Taylor is hanging her ornament...



And eating a candy cane. Thank Goodness they have the sugar free ones!

It is so funny that even at such a young age you just know what to do with a present. Taylor goes over and tries to rip them open.


And yes I bought a fake tree too! It is only a corner decoration but I think it is cute! I love the rustic look of the tree. Just a fun little extra decoration.

Your Christmas Countdown - Xmas Countdown Clock

There is no time like SNOW time

I grew up in California so I haven't ever been big on snow because I never really had it growing up! Since we live now in places of snow I have slowly warmed up to it. (ha ha) So today we got our first snow. Nicks commute went from like 20 min to a little over an hour. The roads were really slick I guess and people were driving really slow. Taylor and I went out and played for about 45 mins and she and Lexi loved it!
Helping me shovel off the back patio.

Have you ever seen that movie "A Christmas Story" with Ralphie? Well there is this scene when Ralphie and his little brother are getting ready for school and their mom is having them put on hats and gloves and coats. The mom ends up putting on this enormous snowsuit on Ralphie's little brother and he is overly bundled up and all you can see is his nose and eyes and his arms are sticking out from his sides because he can't put them down. So Ralphie and his little brother start walking to school and the little guy falls over and can't get up. It is soooooo funny, makes me laugh every time! Well this is my version of Ralphie's little brother. Check out her arms.

Running around kinda losing her balance.....

and this is where she fell......

and couldn't get up!! Poor girl. I was laughing so hard!


And psycho Lexi was rolling all over. You can just call her "Santa paws" (ha ha ha)
(okay I know I know don't quit my day job)


More November pictures

So I still have to get some more pictures from Tawnee but these are some!


My first Turkey! It turned out pretty good. I was so scared it wouldn't but we were lucky!

My man carving his first turkey! Good job honey!


Dads Birthday pumpkin pie! The old fart blew out all the candles all 62 of them!

Of course Taylor got in on the food action.

Chips and dip yummy. That was all hers after watching her triple dip!









November in a nutshell

Buddies

Gmpa Hank took us to McDonalds MM MM good!

If you haven't seen Nacho Libre this wont make any sense
(Stretchy pants)


Check out that hair and that belly!!

WOW!! What a month November was. I guess I can have the award for worst blogger of the month since I didn't even update at all! We were so busy all month but it was good business. We were blessed with lots of friends and family this month and I have never been one to LOVE Thanksgiving but this year it seemed I learned the true meaning of it. My 2 BESTEST friends came to visit us this month. First Blair and Cami and her ADORABLE growing belly. It is so nice to get to see them going through this exciting time in there lives and how Cam already has mom mode geared up. She looks fantastic and is going to be the best mom. I am so happy for them! Then we had a surprise visit by Tawnee and Sarah and Addie and Ty. Talk about AWESOME!!! Taylor and Addie got along great and I loved watching them play. Sarah and Ty have are doing such a great job, like I knew they would, at raising there sweet little princess. As you can see the girls had a lot of fun and got pretty messy a lot of the time so bath time was a blast for them. That one booty shot Sarah, Tawnee and I were laughing so hard! They are too cute. Then later My Dad came to visit and we celebrated his birthday and had our own little Thanksgiving. I was worried that Taylor wouldn't warm up but about a day after he was here she was calling him gmpa! But my favorite thing is how much Taylor loves Tawnee or (nanee) as she would have it. They are quite the pair. Then we went to Mom and Eds for the REAL Thanksgiving. Then Tater had a new best bud. Terin is such a good aunt to Taylor. It is so good to see family. I Love all of them so much and I am so Thankful for all that everyone does for us. We went to my Aunt Bev's for Thanksgiving dinner. There were so many people we had to get the church to fit everyone and it was so great! We played games and ate some really good food. All of my cousins look great and there kids are all getting so big. We were a good looking group if I do say so myself. Taylor hung out with some of my cousins little girls who are a little older but the three of them had a great time. We found them in a room reading a book all together...talk about cute. So with all of this you can imagine how Thankful I am for family and how Heavenly Father really knew how important family is. That pretty much sums up November. I will try harder to stay on top of this months posts but Already I am behind....oops!

More spooks!!!

And the sugar rush begins!!!

Showing us her favorite treats.(2 suckers that she got)


Despite how much she LOVED her suckers she offered her Mama some, what a sweetie pie!


She would alternate those suckers; one lick here one lick there, TOO FUNNY!!


Happy Halloween


She knew exactly what to do with the candy!!! (even though she looks nervous and unsure in this picture she was ALL over that candy!!)

She had no idea what the heck she was doing but ......

Making faces before going out to Trick or Treat!



The happy pumpkin!




Lexi bug!

She is so sweet! We all went for a ride on the "Moto" to the park in our Neighborhood (just down the street no one freak out that we took Taylor for a ride on the bike!) Taylor hit her eye on the ledge and got a black eye and then got a scratch under the same eye! Poor girl, so we took her outside for some fun! It was FREEZING outside. Poor Taylor could hardly move I had so many clothes on her! She climbs up here and slides all by herself. She loves to be outside but it is so cold so we hardly go outside anymore! These are some pictures from our outing!

Chilly Fun!

ooo ooo

I absolutley love this.

tah dah

Just for fun!

F A C E

Taylor has know her face for a while but I haven't been able to get a descent video of her doing this until now! Silly girl!

more animals

So Taylor has caught on to the whole animal sound thing. She can do a lot of animals but my favorite in this one is what the fishy does...see for yourself!

So this is my little dancer. She usually just shakes her shoulders and it is hilarious but she wouldn't do that but this is still really funny! We dance every morning for about 30 mins for some exercise! She is so cute!

Well I have been bad at the blog for a while (sorry mom) but Taylor has not stopped for a min. We have all stayed pretty busy! Nick is doing great at work and I am so proud of him and all that he is accomplishing. Taylor is getting smarter and bigger everyday AND she is finally getting some hair in! I love that little gal so much. It is funny how you don't know how you can love someone so much until you actually have them. We were able to go to Rexburg for a weekend to see our families (well some of them). Tawnee and Colleen and Britt and Skinny all live in that area. Nick's long time friend and his WONDERFUL family let us stay with them for the weekend and it was really fun. They have a little boy and girl and so needless to say Taylor was in heaven!!! Uncle Chrisy also came to visit so the guys got to go and hang out (golf) which was great! (poor nick has a house full of girls even the dog is hormonal. So Tawnee and I got to go to Idaho Falls and shop and I had a really good, fun time with her. I love that I have such great sisters! The only thing that would have made the weekend better was if Terin would have been there! Colleen was doing great to! Such a pretty sweet girl. Taylor really liked hanging out with her AWESOME aunties. We also got to see some friends, Sarah and Addie! Taylor and Addie only played for a little bit but Sarah let them snack on some otter pops so she is totally in with Taylor. We also got to see Britt and Skinny's AMAZING house! I loved it. I guess Britt picked out everything as far as colors and hardware and she did a really good job! I am so excited for them and I can't wait to see it full of all there stuff. We went to see Janelle as well! She actually watched Lexi for us which was REALLY great! It was nice to see here and she took Taylor to ride some horses! Thanks everyone for the great weekend!

homemade fun

So I love these little fabric flowers. They are so cute and such a fun accessory!

This is Taters little apron that I made her. She acts differently when she has it on like a little mom. She put it on and tucked her monkey into bed and then got the broom and helped me sweep and tried to vacuum! It is so cute.

Look at those cute ears!
