Lagoon

We went with the cousins to Lagoon today. They all had so much fun.

We spent enough time playing this game to win each child a stuffed dragon.

Markie got drenched on Rattle-Snake Rapids.

Sarah also went and did a great job. She napped and ate as usual as I concentrated on keeping her out of the sunshine. What a good little girl!

All four cousins enjoyed playing with one another and Dada/Uncle Jeremy. It was a good time.

The airplanes:

Birthday Celebration

Munchkin had his heart set on this blower. It was the first thing he asked about on the morning of his birthday. He sat up in bed and happily said "It's my birthday. Do you think somebody will get me the blower"? He is a great helper for Grandpa with the yard work.

His cousins arrived with a gift that made him very happy. Thanks guys!

Mama decorated the garage with some birthday chalk art. Ry was actually quite impressed by this.

Dada gave him his own light-saber with which to rule the universe.

The cake that Ry chose:

It turns out that the Air-Force was putting on an air show in our back yard during Ry's party. What luck! Munchkin thought the airplanes were just for him. They flew over-head about seven or eight times, each time getting lower and louder. Way cool.

Big-Brother chose this dress for me.

4 Years Old!

Angel of mine, you sure have come a long way. I am so proud of you. You are a sweet, caring, brilliant boy and you are now four years old. Time flies, my love, and I am enjoying every second of watching you become the wonderful person that you are proving to be. I can't imagine life without you. You are such a huge part of our family and we all love you so, so much. Thank you for being such a wonderful boy. Happy birthday, Ry. I hope life continues to give you all the happiness you deserve.
Love, Mama.

Spring Princess

We are certainly enjoying the fresh flowers and sun-dresses that accompany this beautiful season.


Spring Sing

Munchkin gave a singing performance with his class... or should I say he stood by watching the other children give singing performances. Even though he didn't sing like some of the other students, he sure lit up when he saw his parents and grandparents watching him. We were all so happy to congratulate him on a job well done at the end of the concert.


Soccer Practice

Apparently Munchkin and I are both taking soccer lessons. He will only participate if Mama or Dada joins him on the field. Munchkin is very reserved when he interacts with the other children, but it is a good social experience.

Munchkin and the Brownie

Wow, the chocolate went straight to his head.


Twelve Weeks Old

She is twelve weeks old now and I just don't think it gets any cuter than this. She is able to express her happiness through facial expression. Her smiles capture my heart! Dada claims to have made her laugh today, but he isn't officially declaring laughter until he has an audience to witness this mile-stone with him.

Sarah's World

"I am now ten weeks old. I love Mama's milk and am sad on days when she goes to work... I don't do too well with the bottle. I nap for about thirty minutes at a time in my swing. And I am developing some pretty awesome leg muscles in my jump-a-roo."

Easter Basket Mishap


Happy Easter from Taylor Hadfield on Vimeo.

Easter-Egg Hunt

Grandma and Grandpa's back yard was a perfect place for an Easter-egg hunt.

Fun Pictures from Easter Weekend


Sarah met new family members this weekend. Mark and Mikelle flew in from Seattle and Jeff, Amanda, Destiny and Gavin also met her for the first time.

Rainbow Cake and Cupcakes

Instead of dying Easter eggs we made this beautifully colored cake. The kids loved it and so did the adults.

Singing Practice

Munchkin is practicing his singing in this video. I think he is attempting to sing a song about a busy bumble-bee. Instead his lyrics go "busy round ter flower ter tree, don't you dare sit on me"... whatever that means. His singing tickles me to no end. Also, I love the look of satisfaction he gives at the completion of his performance.
