I wanted to share some pictures we took at the park a couple of weeks ago. Taya wasn't feeling to well then, put she always puts on a good show for the camera. I also wanted to show off her new big girl piggy tales. Nana doesn't like them because she thinks it makes her look too much like a big girl. Love, Steph

New Taya Snapshots






I thought I would put some new snapshots of Taya up for everyone to see. We have been having fun playing outside. She seems to be feeling much better. She really loves her baby dolls and she is a good mommy. Hope you enjoy these pictures as much as we are enjoying our time spent with Taya.

Last Day of Vacation












Hey everyone, sorry it took me so long to post. We are home from St. Louis. Taya has been sick with a fever, but we went to the doctor yesterday and it seems to just be a virus. The last day of our vacation was spent doing some shopping, visiting the city museum and of course, the royals vs. the cardinals baseball game. Taya started off the the game a little tired and not sure about all the screaming. We were a mixed family with daddy in his cardinals gear and mommy and Taya in their royals stuff. We had a great time. Taya loved eating cotten candy with mommy. We are very tired from the trip, but had a great time and very glad to be home. I'm going to keep this blog site going, it seems to be a good way to keep everyone updated on all the exciting days of Taya's life. I will try and post some pictures from Cody and Alicia's wedding sometime soon. Until then, We love all of you, Matt, Steph, & Taya

St.Louis Vacation Day 2






Today was another great vacation day. We started the day at Grant's Farm where we saw all kinds of animals. We even got to play with goats and take a picture with a clydesdale horse. Taya is becoming more and more like her mom, she didn't really enjoy the heat or the the goats biting at her new outfit that nana bought her for vacation. After that we ate lunch and then spent the afternoon at a really cool mall. It was taylored for kids. Taya loved it, in fact it made daddy nervous when she got so excited to be shopping at a mall, I think she just liked being in the air conditioning. She even got to ride a carousel at the mall. Tonight however she started running a fever and didn't feel so well, but after a quick call to Dr. Smith and some medicine she seems to be back to her fun self. Sorry it took me so long to post tonight. We hope to visit the city museum and go to the cardinals vs. royals game tomorrow if Taya is feeling well, so until then, we love all of you and miss you!! See you soon. Love, Matt, Steph, & Taya

St.Louis Vacation day 1






















St. Louis is so much fun. Having Taya puts a whole new spin on vacation time!! We are having an amazing time. If I get this done correctly you should be able to see only a small few of the cute pictures we took today. We went to the zoo for most of the day, then ate some dinner at applebees and then swam in the pool at our hotel. Taya is enjoying every minute of it and Matt and I are having the best time ever. Hope you enjoy the pics!! We will see all of you soon. I will try and do this each night we are here. Love all of you!!! Steph, Matt, & Taya
