Payton's 1st hair cut

Payton had her very first hair cut on Saturday. Her hair really isn't that long...I just want to avoid the mullet that Madison had for a year before I finally gave in and got her hair cut. I just trimmed off 1/2 an inch from the bottom but I think it looks good if you don't look too close. ;)

Fun outside

Now that both Taylor and Payton are walking it makes getting outside to play a lot easier. They had tons of fun playing and getting soaked today.

Payton is walking!

Payton started taking a few steps last week and has waisted no time in figuring out how to walk. She is now walking non-stop. Here is a little video of her walking. Please excuse the fact that her diaper is showing. ;)

Madison's first day of 3 year old preschool

Today was Madison's first day of 3 year old preschool. She was excited and a bit nervous because it was a new school this year. I think her class will be great. Looking forward to what the school year will bring.

Vacation 2011

This past week has been very busy. Taylor and Payton had their well visit check up on Monday. It went well and we learned the girls are on opposite ends of the growth chart...but nothing to worry about. Taylor had to get 3 shots in 3 different locations...no fun. Payton has to wait till next week to get hers because she had a fever. She actually has a sinus infection which has not been fun but we did get medicine. Over vacation it was obvious she didn't feel good but she was acting closer to her old self. As I just mentioned, we went on vacation the last part of the week. It rained a lot of the time which meant that sometimes the pool was closed. But it all went really well with all of us in one room and the girls were great on the 4 hour car ride both ways.

Madison helping build a sand castle. It looked really great when everyone was done.

They even collected crabs (in the green bucket(above)) and snails (in Madison's hand(below)) for the moat.

I think Payton enjoyed the beach...Taylor I'm not so sure about...she had the same face almost the entire time while she was playing in the sand.

Taylor and Payton's 1st Birthday Party

Taylor and Payton had their birthday party this past Saturday to celebrate them turning 1. They had a great time and as you will be able to see from the photos they loved eating cake! ;) Thanks to all of the friends and family that came and celebrated with us.

Happy 1st Birthday!!!!

Today Taylor and Payton turned one. So hard to believe. This year has really gone by so fast...don't know if it is partially because we can't remember the first few months or not. ;) They are such big girls. Taylor is walking and Payton has taken a step or two. They love to play with each other and especially Madison. They do a ton of talking and are getting really good at saying Mama and Dada. ;) We are really looking forward to what this next year holds as they really start moving and grooving. ;) Happy Birthday Taylor and Payton!!
