Growing up

So it has been nine months and I still haven't found my grove. You know the getting back to normal, or rather, establishing the "new" normal. It seems that even the smallest things seem more difficult to get a handle on, especially if you are the not so organized me. As you can see blogging is included.

We have had a lot going. Taylor has been LOVING school. Her teacher is just fantastic and really puts some heavy thought into what they are learning. Every day after school we review what she goes over and she is now reading small words and can sound out some words as well. With a little help is reading her bedtime stories with me.

 

In November Taylor was the Star student. The whole month was about Taylor. She loved the attention.

Taylor also made out her Santa list for this year. She is so sweet, she made sure Santa knew to bring Grammy a toy.

*funny story, we went into the mall to run into a store really fast but Taylor saw the mall Santa and ran right to him (there were no lines) and started up a conversation with him. I don't remember the whole thing but she did ask "Are the reindeer healthy?" and "what is your favorite cookie?" It was pretty priceless.

Graham is a fan of food. He will eat pretty much anything, and I do mean anything. He does have a bit of a sweet tooth as you can see here.

Graham even wears Taylor out.

He also carries things in his mouth, like a dog or something.

He likes Taylor's my little ponies, especially the remote control car.

My sweet little girl is quite the tom boy. She is Obsessed with the avengers... yes I let her watch it and yes I am beginning to regret it. She is also a big fan of batman. She is a sweet girl but is becoming a pretty rambunctious little gal.
