The Paci Halo

Tay loves to sleep with his Paci.  He doesn't really use it during his awake time, only when he is ready for bed and this is how he likes em!


We have learned that if they are in arms reach by his head we don't have to get up or come in at all to plug him up.  He's so cute especially 1st thing in the morning when he reaches up for one with his eyes closed, grabs it and puts it in his mouth then rolls over with a smile.

Cereal!

On his 6 mo birthday Taylor got his 1st taste of food!  He was very serious and curious why we were huddled around him in this strange chair he had never seen and shoving a spoon in his face.  He ate about half very slowly and has been doing really well ever since!  I think he likes it!

Where has the time gone?

I feel robbed!  How can he be 6 months already?!?!? 

Easter 2011

Happy Easter!

Sunday morning we woke up early and headed to church with Rock Harbor to see Francis Chan speak at the pacific amphitheater with Mom and Dad. It was such a beautiful service to celebrate Jesus’ resurrection with song, theatrics and Pastor Chan. He is an amazing teacher and author, he wrote Crazy Love and I highly recommend it!  Tay did really well even tho we were skipping his big morning nap and as soon as the service was finished is started to sprinkle and we headed home for Easter Baskets!

Taylor was really excited for his 1st Easter basket, he was looking at each item with such excitement. He got lots of fun things including a bunny, bowls, spoons, some new paci’s, blocks and books.  He held each thing and studied it with a "now what's this?" look on his face, it was so cute!  He loves his bunny and the blocks and plays with them every day.

After our big day we all took a family nap, cats and all!

Hope you all had a wonderful day celebrating with your loved ones, He is Risen!

Gabe's 15th!

Saturday night we went to dinner to celebrate Gabe’s 15th birthday- that’s right I said it 15!  I can’t believe he is that old, I think I say that every year hahaha!  I ate too much and even indulged in some pazookie while Ryle entertained Tay at the table.  He was so excited to see Tay again and sit next to him in their high chairs!  It’s so interesting to see how the generations have passed (like I’m so old) when my 15 year old nephew ordered off the kids menu, my hubby (no where NEAR the babies) played joyfully with toy trucks and then there was my 3 year old nephew playing games on the Iphone.  SMH

World of Color

We had a wonderful date night with Wendy and Wes for World of Color!  We had a fabulous dinner at the Wine Country Trattoria in CA Adventure and with our dinner came preferred tickets to Disney’s World of Color.  We left Tay with his Auntie and Uncle and were off to our fun dinner and show.  Between dinner and show we got to ride 1 ride- my 1st ride in a LONG time- and then got so close to the show that we got wet with each water spout.  I sang every song and danced to all the music, I love being that close and feeling the memories RUSH over me with each song.  I can’t wait to see it again!

Costco Baby

Last week we ventured to Costco for our long shopping list and we found Taylor's new favorite toy- the Costco card!  He held the card all thru the trip and was sad when I had to hand it to the cashier to get checked out.  O and it was his 1st adventure in the shopping cart seat like a BIG BOY!!!
~ and yes for the record when Gus does that its scares the bejesus outta me!!!

Happy 30th Gieser!

To celebrate my dear friend's 30th we had a yummy girls dinner at Roma Cucina and some Layer Cake at Twisted!  I love these girls so much and have enjoyed all our celebrations over the years and can't wait for many more!
