Family Pictures

I decided that we needed a family picture, so I had my brother take a few yesterday. Matt and I are both doing weight watchers, and are not super happy with the pics. I told him we would retake some in 3 months and we better see much improvement. Well is on the opposite plan, I think will just keep getting bigger. Momma must make cream, she is a giant child:) She is up to 15 lbs, size 3 in diapers!

Ellie's Blessing

Today was Ellie's blessing. It was a wonderful day. Matt did a wonderful job on his blessing and I am so happy to have such a good husband that took her blessing so serious. I love you babe! I also managed to pull off all of the food and hostess jobs (my first REAL event like this). I started pretty late on Saturday night......... needless to say I climbed into bed at around 6:30 am, to wake up at 8:00. I'm pretty tired right now. Thank you to all that came! It was a great day!

Ellie's Newborn Pictures

Last week, we went to get Ellie's new born pictures done. I am very happy with the way they turned out, especially considering the circumstances. My little one was not happy with getting her picture taken. First, she was wide awake and we could not get her to fall asleep for the pictures. When she would fall asleep we didn't even dare move her for fear she would wake up screaming. We finally got her to sleep for about a half an hour and were able to get some great shots. I also should mention that she shot poop across the room, in addition to pooping two other times on the white fluffy props. She also peed in Matt's hand and 3 other times. All in all, it was a time we will always remember. Sarah did a great job, she was so calm the entire time! She was fabulous!

Baby Ellie

Yes believe it, I am posting on our blog! I guess it just takes something as significant as a new baby for me to post! Life for the Taylors is fabulous. Ellie Kay Taylor was born on July 10, 2010 at 8:46 a.m. She was 7 lbs 5 oz, 19 inches long. She is very alert, almost everyone that holds her comments. In the dilivery room she was wide eyed looking around. Matt and I think that she is absolutley perfect! We are amazed how you can love someone that you just met, so much! I have only had her in my life for 6 days, but I can't begin to think about my life without her (corny mom thing to say, I know).
