Be Careful When Daddy Gives the Bath!

Not Much to Say!

We're just hanging out these days.  We made it home after a fun weekend with Grandma & Pa!  Got to see our new cousin, Tyler!  He was born on Saturday and we visited he and his parents in the hospital on Sunday after church.  Taylor thought that was so neat!  Congratulations Lonnie & Jen - He's so handsome!  

This week we're recovering from our trip - Taylor has a bit of a cold so we're taking it easy.  We've had lunch with daddy a couple days so far.  Monday we had a picnic with him at the park on the grounds where he works.  Just settling in and adjusting!

I'm sitting in McAlister's as I type this - we just had lunch with Eric (one of the two this week, so far) and I'm taking advantage of the free WiFi since we don't have internet at our house yet.  One of these days we'll get around to hooking it up.  Until then, our posts may be sparse, but we're still here!

Meijer Gardens

Monday was overcast and cool (my favorite) so we figured it would be uncrowded at the gardens - a perfect day to take Taylor.  She had a great time and now we're members so going anytime we come to MI will be fun!  Taylor especially loved the water and played there for quite a while.  She also met some new friends and played with the kids for a bit.  I'm sure we'll go back again soon!

This horse can't be that heavy!

Gosh, It's big!


Finger Painting with Pudding!

Grammy came up with the great idea of using chocolate pudding and whipped cream to finger paint!  Taylor had a blast and got quite a sugar buzz from tasting her artwork.  We had a heck of a time trying to clean the mess up!  It got everywhere - but it was worth it.

Artwork

Grammy bought Taylor some bathtub paint and crayons for our budding artist to create a masterpiece.  I've spared you the butt shots, but they were oh, so cute!  Its hard to truly appreciate how elaborate the design was by the pictures... we had color EVERYWHERE!  (even on mommy)  

Now if only we can get it off...

Playing in the Rain... Again!

After spending the week with me, helping me unpack and get things organized, mom and I took Taylor back to Michigan for a couple weeks to rest and relax.  Yesterday was cold and rainy but that didn't stop us from playing outside!  










A Break From Moving

We were so blessed to have both our parents help us pack and move!  After struggling to get it all in the new place we decided to take a break and visit the zoo!  It is really an awesome place and we can't wait to explore it more.  Here are a few pictures.

Gramps & Taylor with the Giraffe!


Taylor found this leaf and decided to hang on to it the rest of the day... you may see it in a few more pictures.

Packing Up

Taking a break from packing all the boxes to head out for a swim.  We had to show grammy all the neat stuff we learned in ISR!  

Moving day is coming soon.
