Triplets

Cassandra, Taylor and Lylee in their matching outfits. I know, cheezy. I think it's still cute though!

Look What I Found

Sometimes when I wake up in the morning, I find this sweet sight on the floor at the end of my bed.

Taylor is laying on his favorite stuffed friend, Turkilis the Turtle. We got him a few years ago from the Monterey Bay Aquarium and Turkilis and Taylor have been great friends ever since. He even gets to go on outings with us. This week he went with us to get allergy shots!

Another New Project

My sweet mother-in-law sent out a bit of her extra fabric for me to play with. JoAnn's had Simplicity patterns on sale 5 for $5 on Monday, so Cassie and I had fun picking out 10 new patterns! This dress is extra special because Aunt Cassie has a skirt out of the flower fabric and Taylor has a tie out of the green stripe fabric. Lylee loves the dress, but she also saw the Jacket on the pattern and wants that too. I told her I'd make one in the fall, after the days of 108* are over!

I think this is one of the most fun parts of having a little girl, I get to sew all kinds of things for her. I did find a pajama pattern for both kids and I'm going to attempt a tie and some boxers for Taylor too.

Maybe on Sunday I can get a pic of Taylor in his tie, Cassie in her skirt and Lylee in her dress. So fun!!!

I Love to Share...

Chocolate malts with Aunt Cassie! Mmmm...

Preschool Graduation

Today my sweet first born graduated from preschool! That's right, Taylor is going to be a Kindergartener this fall. Typing this, I'm actually tearing up to think of the last four and three-quarter years and how much my world has changed for the better. I am so thankful that my Heavenly Father saw fit to send Chris and I our two little angels.

Taylor is such a wonderful little boy. Here are a few things that we love about him.

~ Taylor is very kind and aware of others feelings and tries his best to always be kind and loving.

~ Taylor loves his family.

~ Taylor loves his friends.

~ Taylor loves Star Wars, Legos, Monster Trucks and Lincoln Logs

~ Taylor has an incredible imagination and loves to play alone just as much as he loves to play

with others.

~ Taylor loves to help cook, especially cookies and desserts! (I think it has to do with licking the

spatula.)

~ Taylor loves his Heavenly Father and the Gospel of Jesus Christ

~ Taylor's favorite song is I Am A Child Of God and loves the fact that he actually is a child of

God.

~ Taylor loves to have long, thoughtful conversations.

~ Taylor loves the outdoors and doing yardwork. (Thanks, Grandpa. I hope it sticks.)

~ Taylor is our favorite little boy in the whole wide world.

~ Taylor gives the very best hugs.

This is just a short list of the things that Chris and I love about our sweet litttle Taylor Jay. We love you very much and look forward to continuing to watch you grow up!

Birthday Family Fun

Chris and Cassandra made me a delicious cake. Lylee fed at least half of her cake to Hyrum. One of the greatest things about getting older is watching my kids grow and seeing their relationships grow and develop. Everyday just gets a little better.

Happy Birthday to Me!!!

So yesterday was my birthday, and it was a great one. I got spoiled with lots of love my my sweet family and friends! Thanks to all of you that got me ready for 35! I can't wait for a fresh start this year!
