Summer at a Glance

Obviously I haven't posted for awhile. We have been busy with church stuff, finishing our basement and chasing our girls around, but did manage to have a fun summer as well.

Tyler had a birthday, shout "Hooray"! Doesn't he look like a teenager in this picture?

I went to the dentist one morning and came home to find this. Tyler and Addy had Torence all dressed up!!Forgive me Mother, for I have sinned! I told the city that Addy was a bit older than she really was so she could take swim lessons. I rationalized this in my mind in several ways: #1-She is potty trained. #2-She is not afraid of the water. #3- All the kids her same school-age could take swim lessons this summer. #4-She is big for her age. Nobody even questioned me and she loved it. I will never lie about that again (she will be old enough next summer).


Addy had a birthday, shout "Hooray"!

Torence loved the 4th of July fireworks.



Addy won the 4th of July race again.


Torence has a mullet! Addy had this same mullet. I am shocked that anything that came out of me would have such a country attribute, but you know what they say: "You can take the girl out of the country, but her children will be born with mullets." Or something like that.

Torence crawls EVERYWHERE. What should I do with her now!


We put Addy in preschool this year because it is right across the street and I know and trust the teacher. Addy loves going to school and it is so fun to hear about her adventures when she comes home each day. The first thing she tells me is what kind of snack she had, followed by a play-by-play of what boys got in trouble that day.

LIAR LIAR PANTS ON FIRE! I can't believe what a total girl Addy is. She looks adorable in her preschool picture! Torrence seems to be the sweetest baby ever... is that early for crawling? You must have a genius baby on your hands. I'm so glad you updated summer. I feel like we never talk anymore since you are so busy being such a super mom & active member of your church. I miss the Taylor girls!

Thanks for the post I feel like we don't even know each other anymore. We spent alot of time together while I was prego with the twins but not at all since then. I hate to say it though I did have fun spending time with you I am not willing to go through another twin pregnancy to get to spend time together. Your girls are beautiful. You really should come visit some time.

You lied to get her in swim lessons? I love that! Why didn't I think of that? I think you're brilliant... and apparently very active in your church =o) What's your calling that's keeping you away from the social world? Well hope autumn time is as much fun for your family!
