Merry Christmas

Dec 25 2010

Following tradition, Christmas morning is always spent at Mimi's house. We wake up and head over early, usually in our PJ's. We have a great breakfast, bacon, eggs, biscuits, and coffee, or juice. Then we open presents. I will always remember these mornings.

This year it was fun watching Noah open and be more interested the activity. He is really good at bags with tissue paper, but really has to work on wrapping paper. Mimi helped him. Packing peanuts seemed to be his favorite gift. And after that his little Vtech laptop.

We are so blessed to have such a generous family.

Christmas with the Taylors

Pops, Gigi, Drew, Me, Noah, and Aunt Bryce.







Dec 24 2010

As tradition since I have been dating Drew we spend Christmas Eve night with the Taylor side. Every one gets together. This is a time for us to see everyone we have not see in a while. It was so fun for them to see Noah and how much he has changed.

Pops and Gigi gave Noah a really fun chair and Noah had fun climbing in and out, in and out, in and out.

Christmas Eve

Dec 23 2010

After opening presents with the fam Noah thought he would have a little time with Uncle J and Daddy. Oh and Madison. He loves that dog.

Double Date with Justin and Michelle

Dec 22 2010

Justin and Michelle drove through town headed to AL. We have not seen them in over a year. It was so good to get out of the house and have a date. We ate at Jo's Diner and then enjoyed some really good yogurt from Berry Berry Good.

Ichiban

We had such a fun lunch with Pops, Gigi, and Aunt Bryce. Really great food and fun times chasing Noah around the place.

Flowood Lights

Dec 21 2010

We spent the night at the park. Having fun, the weather was great (around 65 degrees) and it wasn't that crowded. We ran into several friends that we haven't seen in a while. We even tried to see Santa. Which did not quite work out. Noah screamed. He did have fun riding the cow in the nativity scene. He even talked to Baby Jesus.

The Pearces

Dec 21 2010

We had such a fun time catching up with the CL, Kirsten, and Eva. Noah as not seen Eva since they were 6 months or so old. It was fun to hear about all their adventures overseas.

Fun day for Mom and Dad

Dec 21 2010

We dropped Noah off at Mimi's and we were able to go eat lunch with Ben and Ashley. Don't we look cute, these 2 preggo ladies.


Later we went to see our 1st 3D movie with the 'rents. Narnia it was really good. I was sure missing Noah by the end.

Baby News Catch up

Dec 21 2010


We found out on Nov 2 that we indeed were having another baby, but it would be almost 2 months before our families knew.

Here is Baby Taylor 2 at 9 weeks and 3 days.

In the meantime I was feeling sick (a little N/V) and feeling really tired. Drew began to change every dirty diaper for me so I wouldn't get sick. That my friends is real devotion. I remember what a great husband he is in moments like these.

Here I am at 10 weeks.




We went to have blood tests done, and to get a prenatal eval. Later I went back for a sonogram. Daddy and Noah went for the first visit as they had to ask all kinds of family background health questions. And Noah got his first sucker. He made an absolute mess.

Pops and Gigi hear the news

Dec 19 2010

We spent the whole afternoon/night seeing Pops, Gigi, and Bryce. Noah spent alot of time throwing the ball to Coco and Jerri cooked my favorite squash dish.





Such a fun video.

Telling Mimi about BABY

Dec 18 2010

It was so funny for the first 20 minutes of our visit. Everyone could see the BIG BROTHER shirt but no one said anything. Finally Mimi asked who is the big brother?? NOAH???? Finally..........

They were really excited and Noah was so tired from the long day of travel and meeting lots of new people.

This of course did not keep Noah from playing with his new Schwinn trike and race truck course. It did however take him a little time getting use to the big dogs again.
