We are in trouble!!!

So we are definitely in trouble!! Taya is always trying to get our cell phones so finally we gave her one of our old phones!!! She absolutely loved it... she carries it with her around the house and holds it up to her ear!!! She will probably be begging for a real phone by 5!!Oh yeah and the black chair she is on, is a Banana chair and she has claimed it. She thinks she is so big that she can get on the chair all by herself!! next, ever since taya was about 2 months old she liked to jump!! She still loves to jump... when you hold her and want her to walk to someone she just starts jumping!! It is hilarious! We bought this little trampoline a couple of months ago and wanted to give it to Taya on her b-day and we totally forgot about it!! So here it is!!

DANG--- she has grown!

Can you believe how fast they grow!! I can not believe it!! I can't even fathom that she was once that little!!

Enjoying birthday gifts!!

Taya loved the bike trailer!!! She just sat back and enjoyed the ride!! After awhile she was trying to rip off the helmet... can you blame her??



My mom got her this keyboard for her birthhday and it has a microphone in it and Taya puts her whole mouth on it and says ahhhhhhh ahhhhhhahhhhhhh and oooooooooo oooooooo o!! all sorts of sounds.. she loves hearing herself!! She is going to be our little singer!!!

Not so little anymore!!!!

Taya turned One years old on Saturday!! Here are some pics of her digging into the cake!! It was so funny because she was so dainty at first and just poking it with her finger and licking it, until I stuck her hand into the cake and she realized that there was something else in there!! It was so funny and then she went to town!!











She was thrilled to open the first couple of gifts and then she was bored of it and wanted to play with the toys she already opened!!




Then when she opened the keyboard she was so excited!! Check out that grin!!!

Taya mowing the lawn!!

So tonight Matt and I wanted to get the lawn mowed... I usually mow and he weed whacks!!! Well Taya was not letting both of us do this at the same time so I figured I would give the snuggly a try... man she was heavy and it was sure hard to turn the dang mower, but about half way done I look down and she had fallen asleep!!!! Isn't that hilarious??!!! Also just darn cute!!!

Book Worm!

So yesterday I was putting on my makeup and Taya was playing in her room.. it was noisy and then got really quiet... this is what I found...... hopefully she will be a book worm after all!!

Taya's 11 month pics-- way late!!

So I am a slacker!!! I usually do pretty good but this month was nuts!!! So here are Taya's 11 month pics now that she is almost a year!! She is soo funny!! She is a little ham!! We had two different outfits because she had an accident in the first one!! Still cute though!!

Are we done yet????

It could have been me!!

So Today my little brother had baseball games in Idaho falls and my dad took him there early to practice and My mom and her sweetheart were going up and Matt and I were going to go too!! Matt stayed out way to late playing computer games with his buddies and came home at 4 a. m. I kept telling him to come home early because we were leaving around 9:00 a.m. He told me he kept thinking that I should go up with my mom!! Then I kept bugging him to get up and he said, "Uh you should go up with your mom, because I am soo tired!!" I said, " you did this to yourself and you knew we were going so get up!!" So he got up and started to get ready and in the mean time my dad ( at the games already) calls and says, Your mother was in a wreck just before Blackfoot and they are taking her in an ambulance so you need to take care of her! I freaked out!!! I drove to Fort Hall when my dad called again and said they were taking them to Pocatello!! So I turned around!! We beat the ambulance there and when they arrived I ran out there to see my mom on the strecher! I couln't help the tears!! She was so scared!!! Tom was walking but had a seperated shoulder!!So I held her hand into the hospital, they did cat scans on both of them and Moms was normal.... she had whip lash and maybe an aherinated disk in the neck.... she was really stiff and sore from bracing herself. Tom's shoulder was definatly out of place and he might need surgery!! Amazinly enough no cuts or open wounds!! My Aunt Susan and all the other angles must have saved them!! It was a miracle!!!! After they calmed down a little I got the story!!!
What happened was that it was raining and they hydroplaned and hit the side guard rail and rolled the car 3 times!!!We are so lucky they are alive!!!The guard rail went through the back passenger door... where iIusually sit when I go with my mom and Taya always rides in the middle!! Man I am so glad Matt got up and I didn't go with my mom or I would have been dead!!
The Lord really looks out for us!!! Obviously it wasn't their time to go yet, which I am soooooo grateful for!!! We are so blessed!!! Mom I love you!!
Here are the awful pics I got when we went to retrieve all of their belongs out of the car!!
