So today Chad, Taylor and myself went to our nephew's birthday party. We had a really good time. The kids played in the bouncy thing that we had at Taylor's birthday party, had a silly string fight (which was too funny) and at the end they all took rides of their pony, "Davie". (Minus Taylor, who was scared to death of it.) I'm sure everyone has heard Jonnica say sometime or another that something was "definitely blog material." Well today, bless her heart, Jonnica said something that was definitely blog material. Tinslea was riding Davie and kept saying "I'm a cowgirl" when Jonnica pops off with "I mean Davie has been the same size for like 3 years." Uh yeah Jonnica, it's a pony, they don't get any bigger!!!!!!!!! That's almost as bad as Chad going up the escalator backwards. But it's ok we still love her. Comments like that keep our family get togethers exciting.

We're boring!!

She has had a ball playing in her playhouse that her gran gran got her. She loves ringing the doorbell and playing in the fountain.

This is on her daddy's bday. He killed a turkey, finally!!

So Chad's on nights this week. We hate nights but we're not complaining!!!! I try to make plans for Taylor while he is sleeping during the day. Thank goodness he's off for 4 days though!

A Catch Up Of Taylor.

Isn't she adorable??

She opened her first present the night before from her mommy and daddy.

A Catch Up of Tay.

Taylor sleeping in her big girl car seat.

Taylor's first hair cut. Her Uncle John gave her a sucker to occupy her, I held her, her Grandma Linda held the hair in a baggy, and her daddy took the pictures. She was the sweetest little girl. She didn't even cry. Since then, she likes to comb her hair, and mine.

Taylor's first time eating cheese. She loves it.

Taylor giving her money in the offering at church. The other day she tried to take it back.

Taylor with her daddy and his deer this year. It was the biggest deer he's ever killed. We were very proud of him.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TAYLOR!!!!

Our princess is one. I cannot believe it at all. Chad was saying that he couldn't believe it and the next thing I knew I was crying! This has been the most exciting (and exhausting) year. I have loved every minute of it. I can't thank God enough for the family He has given me. From giving Chad's job back, to helping me make it through school with a baby, to all the family that has been there with open arms, I am truely blessed.

Some pictures of us.

Chad said we needed a picture of us on here. (He thinks we're still important.)

Welcome!

We are Chad, Amber and Taylor Smith. Chad and I were married on June 6, 2009 (pics will be posted sometime) and our precious princess Taylor will be one this Friday, September 11. I am an accounting major at WKU and Chad works at Aleris International Inc. Our pride and joy, "Tay", takes up most of our time but we also LOVE our nieces and nephews and try to be around them as much as we can. Taylor is just now walking so we are having a ball with her right now. She loves her family even though she doesn't get to see them all the time. Hopefully in the next day or two I'll have some more pictures up. I probably won't talk much because pictures say everything. I just want the family that doesn't get to see her much see what she's up to.
