4 Months!

(Written on 8/9/13)

Happy 4 Month Birthday, Taylor!

 

 



We fall more in love with you every day! You are growing too quickly but each stage is more fun than the last!

You rolled from your back to your tummy for the first time on August 8, 2013 (17 weeks)! My big girl :)

 

I can't even think about next Wednesday when I have to go back to work because it makes me very sad, but I know that Taylor will be in good hands with her babysitter. We have had a wonderful 18 weeks together and I wouldn't trade it for anything! Hopefully all of our babies will come in such great timing so that I can have maternity leave that leads right into summer! This past month we have stayed busy with friends, traveling, activities, and lots of cuddle time :)

Joseph, Taylor, and I packed up and headed to Greenville for a day trip (spent the night in Columbia with Aunt Kenzie) to see sweet Baby Will!! He is absolutely precious! He is a little guy- only weighed 5 lbs 12 oz. We love him so much already!!

We had a fabulous long weekend when the Gulledges came to visit! We had fun dinners, a beach day, guys played golf, girls and babies shopped, & even planned our ski trip for next year :)

 

We went to Charleston for a day trip to the wedding of Dr. Sarah Marks & Dr. Daniel Leach! Joseph & I had a great time at the beautiful wedding while Taylor spent some quality time with her Aunt Amy, Uncle Jonathan, & Cousin Macy!

 This past week- my last full week off :(, Taylor and I went to Sumter to spend the night. We had a great time hanging out with cousins, aunts, uncles, grandparents, & great grandparents!

I love this picture!!!

We also went to the Barwick's for a pool day! It was a great day hanging out with high school friends & their sweet babies!

I am waiting for my phone to say there is no more picture space left because of this sweet little face :)

Riding like a big girl in her stroller...

We're loving Cousin Macy's old toy...

Our new riding position...head foward :/

Ready for another great month!!

She can roll!

Monday, July 22nd (15 weeks) Taylor rolled from her tummy to her back for the first time!! I haven't caught it on video yet, but here is a video of her daddy helping her roll a couple of days ago :)



Thankfully, Taylor continues to be a great little sleeper! She goes down between 8:30 & 9:30 & sleeps until about 7:30-9:30!! We are both going to be in for a rude awakening in a few weeks when Mommy returns to work, but for now we will enjoy our lazy mornings! One of my favorite parts of the day is getting her up in the morning. She will usually make some noise and kick around a little to let us know she is awake and then gets so excited when she sees us standing there!! She is the happiest little thing in the morning...

Another VERY exciting note: my best friend, Lyndsay, is currently in labor with Baby Will!!! Hopefully, we will be able to go to Greenville this weekend to meet the new addition to the Taylor family :)

P.S. Taylor is still sporting her super cute mullet :)

3 Months!

Sweet Taylor is growing bigger and happier every day!! She is so smiley and has "giggled" for the first time, which is SO cute :) She found her hands and feet and is grabbing and kicking up a storm. She fits in 3 month clothes perfectly and continues to sleep through the night- praise the Lord for a sleeping baby! We are so thankful for this sweet girl and fall more in love with her every single day!

We have been busy enjoying the Summer! Here are a few things we've been doing:

 

Tummy time, holding my own paci in, and napping!



Hanging out with the twins! Going shopping & at the pool

Having fun at the beach!

Spending time with my cousins, family, & friends!

Enjoying the 4th of July, which was a very busy day! Beach all day, boat parade, dinner with friends, and Murrells Inlet fireworks!

 

We are excited to enjoy our last month of Summer!
