Catching Up. One thing at a time.

As written on 10.16.12
There are a lot of things you say or do that I text to share with daddy while he is at work. I keep all these texts as a way to sort of record these things by date. Most are just cute/funny things that you say or ask me, TOO cute not to include here. Sooo, here goes.

On the way to daycare this morning, when we got in the car, you asked if I had the "Ladies and the drinks song"  No, I do not have this song. No, we cant listen to this song.
Look it up. Trey Songz, "2 Reasons"
Its only a little funny, cause you have no idea what they are talking about in the song.
And for the record, its not me that you heard that song with to begin with.

You went to bible class with Nana tonight. When you got home you told me that you learned about what Jesus was wearing. .  . "and his clothes are scary. (long pause) Like he's going to do like THIS (insert karate chop arm movements)"
I'm thinking because his clothes were probably a robe looking outfit with a belt that must have looked like a karate outfit to you?

When I got home from my hair appointment tonight, I walked in the door and you were on the couch looking very suspicious. I looked around and asked, "Where's daddy?" You looked around very dramatically and told me you didn't know. And then daddy opened the coffee table thing and you both yelled, "BOO!"
{I HAVE to figure out how to put the pictures of it in here. HILARIOUS.}
Then at bath time, you asked for the purple foot scrubber and proceeded to scrub the bottoms of you feet and tell me, "I need my feel to be nice and soft."

Mom, "Taylor, do you want to play soccer?"
Taylor, "Well . . . I don't have any soccer CLOTHES, but I guess I could try it..."

Time Flies {shame on me}

Almost a year has gone by since I last wrote you, and I am so ashamed.
It has been a ridiculously eventful year. Events big and small, and I will do my best to journal as many as I can remember, and since I am a year {a whole YEAR!?} behind, I will just post them as I remember them and without any fancy editing.

First and foremost, we got a new house, AKA, you got a new bedroom!
You and were driving home from TeeTee Summers house last November and saw a house for sale. Daddy and I had been casually talking about wanting to move to different neighborhood and hopefully something bigger with a pool. When I saw THIS house had a pool we grabbed the house info sheet and took it home to daddy. You walked it in the house and said, "Daddy, can you buy this for me please?"
Long story short; we closed escrow (the house is finally ours) the day before Thanksgiving (11/23/11) and we cleaned and painted and repaired non-stop until we moved in the day before my birthday (01/08/12).
It was pretty emotional to move out of our first house and the house next door to Nana & Papa. But they didn't plan to live there too much longer, so it made it a little (just a little) easier to leave. It has been life changing to say the least. We now have to drive to day care (gasp!), and cant just wander over to see Nana in the evenings when you and I are home alone and bored.
