Train Ride.

At the zoo there was a train ride...nothing
better for a little boy who loves trains. 
(We hear "All Aboard" at least 20 times a day)
Telling Memaw "All Aboard, Choo Choo"
Looking at the engine.
And the train ride starts...
The turtle family.
Loving the train ride.
Mason's first train ride.
Leaving the zoo after the train ride.

Zoo & Train Ride

Memaw came to see us over Memorial Day Weekend.
She had a great trip with nice weather.
Mason just giggled when he saw Memaw 
getting in the car at the airport.
He offered her his "blink" (the blankie).
Saturday morning we went to the Dickerson Park Zoo.
Looking at the Fish
Running to smell the flowers.

Petting the goats.


"Ready, Set, GO"
Then they take off running.
Memaw and Mason...after she had to chase him down.
Our Sweet Boy.
Feeding a giraffe. Mommy was just as excited about 
feeding the giraffes as Mason.
He fed the giraffes all four wafers, then wanted to feed the giraffes more.
You had to watch out because the giraffes would lick you.
Isn't it cute?

Then we went to the snakes...and Mason really likes snakes.
Jumping on a snake.
Mason is winning.

Baby Girl.

I can't believe I am already 26 weeks...
Although the heat makes me feel like I am 36 weeks.
She is one active little girl. Mason moved a lot but only at 
certain times of the day.
However, she doesn't stop moving much...I think
she is preparing her self for the older brother.
I have been feeling good, just ready for bed at night and you 
better not touch the AC in our house or car...and give me something cold to 
drink & something sweet (mostly fruits) to snack on, and I am good to go. (Ask my mom, we 
went to Pizza Inn twice in two days so I could eat 
the Cherry Pizza)

Mother's Day 2011...22 weeks & 5 days
23 weeks

So excited!

Climbing up the slide with Woody.

Mother's Day 2011.

Mason running to me for his hug...
with the biggest smile.
He will wait for me to sit like this 
just so he can run to me for his hug.
Oh, how I love this little boy. 
It is exciting to think next year I will have 
two little ones to hug for Mother's Day!

Three Years.

Three years ago, I said "I do" to one amazing man.
I often find myself thinking, "He's just great."
I may not always tell him how great he is (and I should more).
He is my best friend, the one I talk & talk & talk to every night.
(He loves listening, don't let him fool you)
I am just so thankful to share this journey with him.
We have one amazing little boy, and another baby on the way.
I hope that each day I make him proud to call me his wife
because I am proud to call him my husband, my best friend.
I love you, Heath Aaron Taylor.
Thanks for these three great years!

Happy Anniversary!

trains, trains, & trains.

Mason likes trains. 
He can hear a train miles away. He will say "choo choo" 
and I will have to stop and listen...and yep, there will be a train. 
Thomas the Train caught his eye...it caught my eye 
when I saw the prices on Thomas :)
We currently have a train table in our living room...and our center table 
has become a second train table. 

We put together the train track outside.
Bridges are another thing that Mason likes.


We traded fish (Mason's first love) for trains.
