I almost forgot...Taylor Finally Popped a Tooth!

How could I forget to post that. When we woke up yesterday, Taylor had her first tooth popping through! It's her bottom left and you can barely see it at all. Trying to look at it or show anyone is like you are trying to hurt her. She absolutely WILL NOT let you! So, obviously I can't post a picture :( We get a little peek when she smiles really big. This is so exciting because we have been waiting for a long time to see this tooth! Now we are just waiting for the next. Tomorrow morning she goes for her 9 month check up so we will see how that goes.

Good Websites

A couple of my friends have commented that they are going to make some hairbows or already have. Well, I found some pretty good websites with instuctions on how to make a couple of bows. I thought I'd post them for anyone who wants them...
I think they call this a corker bow... ( there are others, but they are all pretty much the same)
This one is called a pinwheel bow...

Ideas for Finger Foods

So Taylor has decided that doesn't really care for baby food too much anymore. She wants to be feeding herself and she wants what I have to eat. I need to some ideas of finger foods for her. Anybody got any good ones????

Today at the Park

We took Taylor to the park today because it was beautiful outside. She was in la-la land the whole time. She was about to go down for a nap and she was out of it. I don't think she ever smiled, but she wasn't fussy, just enjoying the outside air.
Lucky shot of the sunglasses because those don't stay on for even a second.

La-La land...

Her favorite...the buggy :)

The Crab Pot

My mom and Robert took me to The Crab Pot in Long Beach for my birthday. The restaurant is in the best spot right on the marina. It was so pretty there. The food was good, but it's mostly seafood. We ordered buckets of food that they dump onto the table. Then we took pictures out on the end of the dock and it was so pretty, the sun was just setting.
Thanks for dinner mom and Rob!

A Couple More Bows

So, now I'm hooked on making bows! I made two more tonight. Here they are. I think I am hooked because I am making them for outfits that don't have a bow to match and it's fun.

These are the same bow, you just can't see it well on the black background.

My Birthday

Yesterday was my birthday and I am now 28. It was a busy day because I had to work, but Taylor and Jimmy to me to Red Lobster last night for dinner. We are going to do something fun this weekend and I will post it. I did get a special delivery at work from Jimmy's mom. It's called a Strawberry Margarita and it was adorable and I wish I could say it was delicious, but it wasn't edible. Here's a picture... Thanks Toni!
