My baby girl is BIG!!!

Well today was a big day in the life of my baby girl she entered the world of kindergarten!!! I've had a really hard couple of days trying to except the fact that my baby girl is growing up. I really thought I'd be pulling out the champagne and celebrating this big day instead I've been roaming around like a big ball baby! My Taylor is so full of life and she enjoys it to its fullest! She has so much spunk and spirit that she truly does terrify me for the future. She is so creative and I honestly believe she has the worlds hugest imagination. She is obsessed with anything princess and PINK and is the biggest girly girl I know.
I was trying to explain to her about kindergarten and what it was all about when my eyes started welling up with tears, she looked at me hugged me and said "mom I'm gonna miss you and I promise I'll color you a a picture everyday in kinnerdarden" It broke my heart cause I will miss her too. Not that shes really gone that long at half day school, its just the begining of the next phase of life. So many fears I have for her, so many trials, so many falls, so many joys, its hard watching your kids grow up! Please bear with me as I blab a little more about our little TAYLORELLA!

She was seriously the cutest little chunk of joy, I could not take her anywhere with out a stranger commenting about how pretty she was!

Taylor almost 1!


Preschool Graduation!


Celebratory lunch at Mickey D's!(ofcourse)

This BEAUTIFUL girl of mine decided the other day when it was down pouring to strip down and go play in the rain. She is so much fun to have around we love her!






Taylor plays soccer now and boy is it a chore to get her there. She plays on a co-ed team and may I say the gods are on our side for they blessed her with the team color of RED! I'm pretty dang sure she would not of gone if she got the color yellow or something. But to get her there she is bribed with $1.00 and if she doesn't lay down and pick the dandelions she gets an extra quarter. She yelled at me right before practice last week "I HATE SOCCER AND I HATE SPORTS I ONLY LIKE BALLET!" Please help me I have a prissy little girl and I'm not quite sure what to do next, beat her or love her!


Taylor just celebrated her 5th birthday she wanted me to make a strawberry shortcake cake, but she wouldn't let me put any of her dolls on it so this is how it turned out, kind of madhatterish if you ask me, oh well she liked it. We had a family party then a friend party from "hell" that really did not turn out quite as planned, but we got cake and Taylor got presents so whocares anyway right.....




Taylor in her classroom today with the notable head tilt going on!

Put that head up please!


So last week was back to school night! That was when the tears first came I was holding them back while the teacher was going over things and let them break free on the way home. Seriously I really don't know what is freaking wrong with me anywho when I got home Tay had a few questions.

"What did my teacher look like?"..........She had white skin and dark hair.........."like Snow White".........kind of I guess.....

"What was my teacher wearing?"..............a skirt and a blue shirt.........."like Snow White"...........yeah I guess so........

"Was she wearing lipstick?"...............no..........

"What color was her nail polish?"...........I don't think she had any........

It doesn't get any better than that from the mouth of a curious kindergartener! Good Luck my little Taylor may you grow to be as beautiful and kind as Snow White!!

I laughed out loud when I read that you pay her an extra quarter to not pick the dandelions. Taylor is so adorable! Such a cute baby and now little girl. I hope kindergarten goes well and that she loves school even if her teacher doesn't look exactly likes Snow White.

Taylor is getting so big, and beautiful! I love her dress! And...if you think Kindergarten is hard, wait until all day in first grade. It was actually harder for me. Second grade is a breeze though:) Now, I'm sure I'll be a wreck come 7th grade...

its quite the crazy day when the first goes to kindergarten, but she hopefully will love it and her "snow white" teacher, i can just picture her first look at her and saying something like "you don't look anything like snow white" or something like that. Dry those tears though one down during the day, is she half day or full day.
