We All Remember Chuck E Cheese Adventures!


I remember when we had Beau's 4th Birthday Party @ Chuck E Cheese & we haven't been back until yesterday! (30 yrs ago)  Crazy!  Beau got to spend an extra night with Dillan & we picked her up at 10:00 a.m. (so he got to spend an extra morning too) :)  So we headed to Chuck E Cheese to have a little fun!  And that's what we did!




These are sketch pictures from the photo booth!  I think Dillan looks like she's from an earlier century?  She had fun!

Dillan and I are having so much fun creating these photos.... it's bringing out the fun and silly!  She takes her time placing the babies and then I show her the photos and she somewhat says "yes"!
Or no..... she is having a say so!

DADDY & DAUGHTER DANCING THROUGH LIFE




I've sure gotten a lot of fun milage out of this!!! Dillan thinks it's the funniest and silliest thing ever.... and she's 3 & 1/2 years old and ought to know:)

Charlie Jane Taylor Has Arrived!


Dillan had been practicing holding her baby dolls for this big moment in her life!  She handled it like a pro big sis!


This picture was taken only 6 hours after Charlie was born! Amazing!  Abuelo was afraid to hold her but once she was in his arms he stepped up to the baby plate and was loving it!


Ashley & Beau rushed to the hospital on Tuesday night and this sweet little baby was born on Wed May 16th at 7:07 am :)  Her name is Charlie Jane Taylor!!!!!!!!  We are all sooooooo excited!

Fun Times @ The Seafood Market


Sometimes we stop at the seafood market on our way home.... Dillan loves to have lobster bisque for lunch the next day!
Every time we go she befriends a live lobster!

I'll Be Buying My Strawberries From The Farmer's Market This Summer...


I found an old strawberry pot out in the shed and filled the 12 holes with succulents & then topped it off with cilantro & oregano :)

Comic Strips & Cat Food


 Everytime Dillan stops by for a visit & spies the 4 babies we have to take some more BABY pictures ... here's the latest two!

He Has Been Released!


I drove Stephen to the doctor's yesterday and just 2 1/2 weeks after his hip replacement surgery ..... the doctor gave him the A okay to drive, go back to the gym and pretty much everything else (short of being stupid)!  He can't fly for another month and that's about it:)  Congratulations Stephen on your miraculous recovery!

Babies Are Sunshine To The Soul!


An old friend from HighSchool posted this picture on Facebook and I really liked it because my soul has been so much happier since Dillan came into our life and now we are having another little sweet heart baby girl!  Ashley's due date has been changed to May 21st!

 

Caladiums & Dillan Grace Taylor!


Oh Yes, It's Wednesday again and Abueleo & I woke up with joy in our hearts because it's been a full week since we have seen our sweet Grand-Daughter!  We picked her up and stopped at Walgreens for some cough meds ... We were concerned that she had a cough ...she even had a bit of a cough a week ago?  But of course we desperately needed to buy her a Disney Princess toothbrush for Daddy's house and some Disney blow bubbles for out back and a special light up Disney Magic Wand, a Tiara, necklace, ear rings & heart shaped ring!  She also picked out and put into the shopping basket a silly ball, lucky charms, a stuffed plush dog, a Princess Cup, Some diapers for her baby sister, a Barbie Doll outfit!  Oh, on the baby aisle she went nuts picking things out for her soon sister to be BUT clever Abuelo just kept putting things back by and by!   When we came home she got down and dirty in the garden and helped me (really actually helped) dig holes and plant Caladiums!  She knows they like shade more than sun!
