What's Up, Taylee?

Oh, sweet baby Taylee! She is our pretty princess, our angel baby, mommy's little miracle.This picture was taken right after a bath the end of August. She is now loosing some of her super-chub, but she still has great cheeks! Her hair has some curl in it when it is wet and it is so stinkin cute!On September 1st, Little Miss turned two months old! Here she is all ready to go to see the doctor. She wasn't this happy after she got all those shots. She was miserable all day! I felt so bad for her :( At two months she was 13 pounds 3 ounces (95%) 23 inches long (75%).Taylee enjoyed her first U of U football game...well, kind of. She mostly just chilled in her cute Utes gear. The game itself wasn't super exciting. Poor Cougars.Another picture of sleeping beauty. So peaceful. She is getting super long eyelashes. Lucky girl! This picture was taken in September before she developed her latest talent.... ...sucking her thumb and rubbing her hair! At first I was not too thrilled with this talent. How was I ever going to take her thumb away?!?!? And then she started sleeping 10 hours straight through the night (thank you, Ms. Thumb, for always being right where she can find you!) and I decided to count it as a blessing and not a curse. One day we'll figure out how to break the habit. For now, I'm enjoying all the sleep I'm getting!!!









The Sunday after General Conference Taylee received her name and blessing. Her name has a really special meaning and her blessing was as beautiful as she is! I can't say it enough, she is my angel and I feel so blessed to be her mom. Some babies cry during the blessing, not our little miss. She smiled through the entire thing! It may be that she LOVES being talked to, and having all those Priesthood holders looking at her while being blessed didn't hurt either, but I think she gets it. It was a very special blessing for a very special girl!



I really need to get a picture with a real Taylee smile. She smiles with her whole face and it just melts my heart! Her eyes are still really blue (crossing my fingers they stay that way!) just like her grandma, aunts, uncles, and great-grandma (the Taylor genes). That is one gene I wished I would have had passed on to me.


I'll do another post with more pictures of Taylee after I can get some of her in her dress on a day that isn't as busy as her blessing day!


Taylee is such a good baby. She eats great and sleeps even better! She is happy. She loves to coo and talk to us....and LOVES to be talked to. There is a light in her eyes that makes me want to be a better person. A more patient person. A more spiritual person. A person equal to the task of raising such a beautiful daughter of God.
